Congrats to world of much anguish before equally much joy once you've gotten the hang of it..
Yes, you will need some form of mouse control and keyboard for easier typing, etc.
Yeah, I'm going to order a Universal IR Learning remote with keyboard to control stuff
I've got TV, AVR and this box to control, plus the ceiling fan, Bluray Player
Found a model which does that Rii i13, but it has mixed reviews especially the IR range.
Not sure why Logitech or Sony and other Big players dont come out a remote which can Learn a few channels and also incl an air mouse and small keyboard at the back.

All these free stuff by every Tom, Dick and Harry you expect all to be like Netflix?
They use phone HD camera to capture so they call 'HD' la. New movies not even release on bluray yet where can get real HD, you think la.
Want to view HD then find those older ones already released on bluray. Even if already released on bluray, you probably come across those previously posted from the pre-bluray release period.
I need to study this more, and especially family friendly channels..I'm totally new to Kodi

I faced the same problems in setting up the network media. Advice is not to use Kodi media (too problematic for me), just use the Android media. Now I can get to my NAS files without password. Forgot how I managed to do that now.
Yes, same issue with HD movies in Kodi, not really HD for most.
But ...
Use some of the apps (especially Chinese apps) and the movie quality there is much much better.
A steep learning curve with the new toy but will be rewarding later once you have mastered it.
Yeah, I google and seems like there are some issues with "New Server Error" with the standard apps.
I'll try a few more ways to see if it registers, and also may follow your method.

congrats.
the device u bought is a good one, has many capabilities.
if new to this kind of device and apps, time is needed to learn it.
can be frustrating at the start.
if your seller cannot support u, provide details on questions here - other users may be able to help.
apps and kodi addons come in all shapes and sizes since they are free, u need to get them to try.
kodi... there are lots of hd stuff in there, just need to know where and how to get them.
china apps, live tv or vod, in general is more reliable and in better quality than others.
if it is not in hd, don't bother, get another app!

Wokay, totally new to this, Previously I just using Dune Player + Youtube app only, now trying out online stuff.
Maybe will take me some time
But so far I'm OK this the player
Thanks all for the tips and encouragement
