    Android TV Repurpose Kodi Box

    Android TV Repurpose Kodi Box


    Repurpose Kodi Box

    Posted: 24 Mar 2020 07:34 AM PDT

    Hi, I have a number of kodi boxes that I do not use anymore. I was wondering if anyone had tried to repurpose it as a VC unit that would use a USB webcam\Mic and TV. I'm thinking it would be handy to keep in touch. there are android clients for Webex,zoom,teams pretty much most of the vc clients.

    Any thoughts as to whether this would be possible would be appreciated.

    Cheap home video conference

    Posted: 24 Mar 2020 08:41 AM PDT

    My main player is a Roku Ultra, but thinking of adding a Android TV box so i can install Zoom.us/Google Duo/Skype and use a USB webcam. I think the Mi Box S fits the bill, but looking for other suggestings. My entertainment system has access to wired network (but is also within 6 ft of the wifi AP. I'm going to use a Logitech 920 webcam and audio will be via my A/V Reciever (HDMI switching).

    Disney+ No 5.1 sound with Mi Box S

    Posted: 24 Mar 2020 06:09 AM PDT

    Hi,
    Has anyone got 5.1 audio from Disney+ on Mi Box S?
    Netflix, Prime and HBO work fine on 5.1 (DD+) but Disney+ only does 2.0
    Is this problem related to Disney+ app or related to Xiaomi/Disney license issues (as Prime few months ago)?

    Chromecast built-in

    Posted: 24 Mar 2020 03:03 AM PDT

    Hi all, I have two Android TV's (a Philips 7100 and a Mi TV 4X) with Chromecast built in. Unfortunately I read that Google Home doesn't support TV's with Chromcast built-in. Is there any wokraround or possibility that I can let my Google Home at least turn the TV on? Or does anyone know if this will be possible in future updates?

    Bit of a shame that these high-end TV's don't support such a simple function.

    Hi, when I was on Oreo HDR playback on Netflix worked flawlessly. But since an update I wasn't able to do that again. All apps are up to date tho.

    Help disassembling my Mi Box S remote

    Posted: 23 Mar 2020 02:17 PM PDT

    My remote got into the washing machine (yeah, I know...) so I want to disassemble it in order to clean it and let it dry thoroughly. I only found a video showing how to disassemble the old Mi Box controller (it has 2 screws in the battery compartment and then more under the circular pad). But in the video they take the circular pad out easily with a credit card. I have tried the same thing with mine and it seems like the pad is thicker and is not just glued to what is underneath. Anyone with experience disassembling this thing could lend me a hand? TIA

    Display overlay

    Posted: 23 Mar 2020 10:48 AM PDT

    Long storie short was messing around with developer settings and change something about display to 4K which my tv natively runs at and it now sends me to a black screen spitting out display and pixel ratio any suggestions my tb does have any buttons apart from power all I got is a remote

    Remote failing to reconnect after every fresh boot

    Posted: 23 Mar 2020 01:16 PM PDT

    I usually cut the power off my setup when am not using it meaning that i usually turn off the system when its in standby. But lately i have been facing this weird issue where after every boot the remote fails to connect to the box and i have to take out the batteries , wait a few seconds, and then hope it would work...anyone else experiencing this and has any fix for this ?. I checked the battery level and its 70% which it think is plenty. I use a mi box s and its using Android 8 right now

    The one box to rule them all

    Posted: 23 Mar 2020 10:15 AM PDT

    I am seeking a Google certified Android TV box. 4k is not super important as I'm still on 1080p and will be for a while yet. The important part is that it runs as many of the following apps (all legit).

    1) Sky go 2) Prime video 3) Netflix 4) Disney+ 5) BT Sports

    I was hunting for a skystream 3+ but I've now been told they aren't official playstore apps (hence the certified requirement)

    Edited: Thanks folks, the Shield it is.
