not totally out of topic since there isn't a similar thread for other languages.

i think TS will not mind chinese, korean, indian, french, etc...!

chinese...

.. vod mandarin - try moretv and cibn - almost all stuff in hd.
find them in shafa.com (u need to know how to read chinese).
these apps offer some free, some partially free, some restricted to paying VIPs.

.. livetv mandarin - try tvplus2.0 and cloudtv.
google, u will find them.

.. canto/eng sub.. chinese, japanese, korean, taiwanese - icdrama rss player is best but limited library.

above are apps i am using. there r a lot more... various quality n reliability.

Thanks a lot. smile.gif Tonight I will go back tryout. smile.gif

I am using Mi Box with DiGi Infinite150 plan. I think is sufficient. smile.gif

Reason I buy Mi Box because I need easier carrying with Netflix support in 4K. I didn't pick Nvidia Shield because it is too expensive for me as a TV Box.

Firstly I would like to thanks again AVFAN. Your recommendation is brilliant!

Below apps is running at Mi Box with DiGi Infinite 150 line.

The Shafa apps is awesome and it is very well done, now it became one of my main Android TV launcher app and replace the side launcher as no longer required.
It run perfectly smooth everywhere.

Below is 4 of my recommended apps for Chinese show, TV series and movies, not all can play as those VIP need money and for China only but the rest is more than enough for me already.
  • CIBN Very Simple TV - running smoothly in 1080p.
  • MoreTV - Good for some show where you can't get elsewhere, apps take sometimes to load the show title but no issue during playback in 1080p.
  • 云视听极光 - Very smooth in 1080p.
  • HDP Live Stream - the best Live Stream China channel, stream so so only, not extremely smooth due to buffer issue but it is the best already compare with others.
For English title, I only recommended Terrarium TV which can stream unbelievable smooth up to 1080p resolution with condition you just need to get the correct source link as only 2 source link is capable run perfectly smooth, the rest source link is garbage and keep buffering.

As for Live Stream, both Live NetTV and RedBoxTV quality is very bad and not smooth even on SD quality, some in HD quality channel wise is nearly not watchable at all.

great to know u had good success! thumbup.gif

generally, vod is easier to get, live tv harder.
live sports is even harder; reliable live sports in HD hardest.

the stuff u get at shafa is usually smooth and reliable... i been using some of them for a few years now.

terrarium is one of the better ones; freeflix is quite alright; best is kodi quasar - once u get this right, u will not want any other vod eng.

livenettv not good 4 u... hmm... i can only speculate yr box is disadvantaged by wifi, w/o ethernet which always work better.
another possibility is yr box is androidtv - some apps not optimized for it, works better with generic android.
lastly, u can try other player/decoders besides box native or mx player.
i get some very good stuff in this app, incl quite a bit in hd most of the time.

redbox... all round not as good as livenettv, imo.

thanks for feedback.
in time, u will find some other good stuff - dun forget to share! biggrin.gif
we share in terms of devices, apps and network related.
but we should stay away from talking illegit ahem paid iptv or mentioning specific providers/channels to avoid copyright issues.
so far, so good!
*
Kodi I no time to see yet. Haha. Ya live TV is harder and lucky I don't watch sport which more harder.

My box got ethernet but it can't connect to my phone. I didn't buy any broadband router yet. Oops.

Livenettv I notice it is very smooth in Indian channel but I didn't need those. It is not good on international channel. Agree Redbox is even worst.

I most the time using MX Player Pro where I long time bough it last time.

Yup Agree we should away talk on illegal ahem paid channel. I don't need it either. Haha.

If I found any good I will share. smile.gif

next chance, get a good router.
good router+ethernet = max stable speed =  best performance.
mx pro... select hw+ decoder, it's better than default hw.
or try xmtv player.
the intl channels sometimes go offline, but usually quite ok.

Ya. I plan buy the router end of month.

Just finish reading from page 10. Tonight may try the icdrama in rss.

May I know what version is your mibox? Where did you buy it? I'm looking for a tvbox can install astro go and run it. Are yours able to run it without problem?
*
I buy from official Mi Malaysia Lazada. For using Astro Go. You need to make sure change the default keyboard to others else it will crash. .

Also you need mouse or gamepad set as mouse pointer for navigation because Astro Go not optimize for Android TV.

Actually I didn't watch much on Astro Go because the picture quality is not good.

it is 240-360 for some, 480 at best.

ok for small screens, mobile phones n tablets.

not that watchable for >40" tv's.

guess they want to restrict to mobile devices, won't improve to 576 or 720.

Yalo.

AOD, i never used... so, don't know...

ya, check again.
perhaps they have their own definition of "hd"... 480/576 enhanced?!
there are other apps that give same channels, can try them, compare side by side.
can get 1080x720 or even 1920x1072 for some of them.
which begats the question why they can't/won't do better.
only reason has to be to keep the decoder monopoly biz intact! tongue.gif
anyway, if anyone finds it good enough, it is good enough.

r u using the unofficial customized firmware or the androidtv firmware for your q5pro?
*
I believe Astro GO is HD but very low bitrate.

Astro GO on demand wise is a better bitrate HD.

Astro GO is better than Hyppe but still very bad when compare with Netflix, iFlix or those China channel from Sofa.

Astro Go HK movies is about 720 as I compared it with that I play using RSS player.

Perhaps not all movies same resolution, older ones tend to be poorer in quality.

Also AstroGo auto negotiates. No matter what we select for resolution, if network poor performance, quality drops without needing to do anything.
*
Older movie no choice but even is HD 720p still very bad in quality. Not bandwidth issue because I can smoothly stream Netflix in 4K.

Bandwidth issue can be due to server side as well. I notice AOTG stream quality fluctuates a lot when watching big games (premier league)

Ya that possible but anyhow I hope Astro can improve a bit on quality in future.

Most channel under category "魔力" and "高清" is working no buffering which is great but it is far than actual broadcast time.

It is late around 2 hours than actual. I know this by watching few news channel and also Malaysia channel. It is fine for me but just pointing out as some may prefer more close to actual broadcast.

Try HKE3... the ones i checked there are about 3 mins delayed.

Not all channel but some.

Thanks for suggest HKE3. It is also mostly working but less channel and mainly target Malaysia and Singapore channel. One funny thing is this apps is nicely fixed 4:3 became 16:9 in proper for all Malaysia channel broadcast by that no quality and don't know what correct aspect to be use - My FreeView.

All their movie is very clear but unwatchable. Stop every few seconds. I try it on my LG G6 and Mi Box with DiGi or Maxis 4G line. All same.

I think the worst I ever use. Uninstall. Haha!

that one is just a compilation of apps, always updated, easier to get rather than hunting them elsewhere.

i hv not not tried all of them, no need so many of the same kind.

just terrarium and freeflix... adfree... they work good.

Hi, I download and it is not a compilation of apps oh. It looks like another Terrarium.

Edit: Sorry I download a wrong apps. Oops.
