    Mi Box advise.

    Posted: 02 Mar 2020 05:41 AM PST

    I've heard that there's been some problems with the Mi Box S software. Were they stable with Android 8.1? If so, can you stop the update push? I want to put a few boxes in my spare bedrooms with Tivimate and have Netflix, Prime Video available for guests. Otherwise no plans for Kodi or anything heavy.

    Xiaomi MI TV BOX S and external 2 TB hard drive,cant turn it off?

    Posted: 02 Mar 2020 05:14 AM PST

    I have been reading some comments about Xiaomi MI TV BOX S users and there seems to a slight problem with external hard drives.

    Would i need to get something like this:

    https://www.amazon.es/dp/B00JX1ZS5O/ref=sspa_dk_detail_0?psc=1&pd_rd_i=B00JX1ZS5O&pd_rd_w=PhqbL&pf_rd_p=f0815c89-d195-4bd5-89fe-99dc61984993&pd_rd_wg=GWsfg&pf_rd_r=VQ67TBYMMSYXVSTEMKQX&pd_rd_r=b55705f7-1fe7-4798-bf82-55a0575a90d6&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEyN1dFNFlLRFI0SFFBJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwNjU0NTEzMTM1MzRLOVVBRTcxUiZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwMjU4NzgwMVdaMDlCQ01NSTlWJndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfZGV0YWlsJmFjdGlvbj1jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==

    Asking because by the info ive gathered is that even if the MI TV box is in sleep mode it will keep on the external hard drive running (2TB external drive).

    This is something i would like to prevent,everything (TV box,tv,etc) would be plugged to a strip,so im wondering.

    when my pops goes to bed or we leave the house,if i turn off the MI TV BOX S,then the tv and then the switch on the strip would that damage the hard drive?

    im kinda lost when it comes to this,dont want to keep on turning off improperly the external hard drive because that would lead to corrupt files or just plain breaking the external hard drive right?

    only solution ive seen is to use one of the items i linked before,so i would just press the button on the device and that would turn off ''properly'' the external hard drive?

    thanks in advance for the help.

    Posted: 02 Mar 2020 07:39 AM PST

    On my og Mi Box I noticed that Spotify has been removed when I try searching it on Play Store - also the url on google shows 404 error... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spotify.tv.android&hl=de

    Is it only in my country (germany) or is it also gone for you?

    New android tv or nvidia shield?

    Posted: 02 Mar 2020 05:40 AM PST

    Hey peoples,

    I'm struggling with this decision.

    The TV is an 8-10 year old HD ready Finlux TV and looks quite dated with huge bezels etc. The room it's in is being refurbed and would seem like a good idea to have a new shiny TV to go with the new room...however I was planning on just getting an nvidia shield connected to said old TV. The wife surprisingly gave me permission to update my old TV making my decision harder.

    Usage wise, mainly streaming from my plex gaming pc/server. But I'd also quite like the option to remote play steam to this tv for casual gaming. Am I expecting too much on an android tv to do this? Or just stick with the old TV and a shield?

    Thanks!

    Is there any Audio Equilizer app for Android Box

    Posted: 02 Mar 2020 09:04 AM PST

    I have NVidia Shield Tv. Sometimes I watch movies over bluetooth headphone. I could get better audio effect if there is an equalizer app like we have on phone. I tried sideload EquilizerFx app but it didn't open after installing.

    Anyone used such app to boost volume or for better sound effects?

    Does the mibox load Kodi and it's menus faster then the 4k firestick?

    Posted: 02 Mar 2020 08:46 AM PST

    Hello. Currently got the stick & looking for an alternative. Kodi takes a bit long to long load. I primarily use Kodi and YouTube tv. Which do you guys think is the better device?

    Need to connect Android tv to stereo via chromecast

    Posted: 01 Mar 2020 05:44 PM PST

    Okay, so let me try to explain. I just bought a Chromecast and attached it to my home stereo. Works great, Google home app sees it. I have a Android TV with Chromecast built in. I want to create a speaker group between the tv and the stereo, so as I'm watching TV the sound comes through the stereo. Google support says that this is not possible because the built in Chromecast is only a "partial chromecast" and won't see it as a speaker.

    Anyway to get around this?

    Capture old 8mm video recording on Android tv

    Posted: 01 Mar 2020 10:54 AM PST

    Hello all First of all, I really hope my post does not violate rules and does not involve illegal topics, but I really am inexperienced about this kind of topics.

    Long story short, we found some old 8mm tapes of old family events, and we managed to connect the (barely functional) camcorder and show them in our tcl Android TV, using the coaxial cable (antenna cable). We would really like to capture the recordings in digital format, and I was wondering if there is any type of apps/software tool for screen capturing from the TV.

    In a sense, I'd expect that such tool wouldn't exist, since otherwise people could record from antenna anything that is received, but again I don't really know much about the field and maybe such tools exist and they block pirating proprietary content via encryption. I'm not even 100% sure this is the right place to ask, but any help/suggestion would be appreciated.

    Thanks a lot in any case!
