    Xiaomi Mi Stick RC pairing issues

    Posted: 30 Apr 2021 10:07 PM PDT

    I've just bought a Xiaomi Mi Stick and I couldn't set it up. At first the bluetooth RC was paired and I was just about to enter my Google info, but then the RC stopped working. After a while Wi-Fi disconnected aswell. It has my Wi-Fi info but it doesn't connect to it. Therefore I can't connect my phone as a RC, I can't use my RC itself and I can't hard reset it. Stick doesn't have a USB port so I can't connect a mouse either. Any suggestions?

    (Edit) List of things that do and do not work:

    -My RC can be detected by other bluetooth devices. Batteries are fine.-RC did work when I launched the stick first, but it doesn't work anymore.-I can't hard reset my stick with holding the Back and OK buttons during the booting.-I can't use my phone as a remote controller via apps because the stick doesn't connect to wi-fi.

    Update: Decided to return it while I still can.

    Is it worth upgrading from the Xiaomi Mi Box S to the Nokia Streaming Box 8000?

    Posted: 01 May 2021 12:27 AM PDT

    I'm quite happy with the Mi Box S performance but the main reason I want to upgrade is the remote.
    I want a full remote like the Nokia Streaming Box has for more convenient TV watching.

    Windows 10 listing like 40 different bluetooth devices for my Android TV

    Windows 10 listing like 40 different bluetooth devices for my Android TV

    So I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but why does my windows laptop see like 40 different TV's even though there's just one (obviously)? It's in bluetooth settings and it's very annoying when I'm trying to find an actual bluetooth device (all other devices just have one listing).

    Sony 65x900f can't select inputs anymore

    Posted: 30 Apr 2021 01:47 PM PDT

    So it seems like this happened after the latest Android tv update (not 100% sure though) but I can no longer select any hdmi inputs. The input menu just doesn't come up anymore whether I try the button on the remote or selecting inputs from the home menu. My ps4 pro is on the arc input and I used to be able to just turn the ps4 on and it would automatically switch to that input but even that doesn't work. Anyone else having this issue by chance?

    What's Better? native Android TV on Sony A8H or the new Apple TV 4K?

    Posted: 30 Apr 2021 11:57 AM PDT

    I've been more than happy with the native Android TV on the Sony A8H. Even more so since the interface was upgraded to look more like the new Google TV. I love being able to use the Sony remote for everything. 1 remote for all! The picture quality when streaming from Netflix and HBOmax has been great as well as the sound pumping through my Sonos Beam and surrounds. I feel confident in my home theatre currently but i'm always looking for the best.

    My question is this. How much better is the new Apple TV 4K that was just announced? Is it going to be a significant improvement over the native Android TV on my Sony A8H? Am I going to see an improvement in picture and sound quality? Am I going to love the new apple remote and the interface that much more? Is it Faster? Easier to use?

    I'm asking someone out there to sell me on spending $179.99+tax on the new Apple TV 4K

    Any way to getrid of dolby vision on netflix

    Posted: 30 Apr 2021 10:58 AM PDT

    I have a sony 55 inch x950g tv.I have 150mbps fiber internet connection, and i have highest netflik 4k hdr uhd premium subscription. When i play a title on netflix, if the title is available in dolby vision, it automatically plays in dolby vision. I dont like yellowish dolby vision colour profile as it is a little bit on warmer side and i like a cooler colour tone with less yellowish tint and more bluish tint. Initially i was superexcited to experience 4k dolby vision hdr but after consuming a lot of content, i really dont feel much excited now. Is there any way to stop playing the netflix videos by default in dolby vision.Its like dolby vision is forcefully implented on me even though i dont like it.Any way to get rid of it ?
