Thanks guys. I was using an air mouse. By the way, is there any specific site that I can download those apks?

Sorry, I can't help more than advice that you Google for them... As I'm more into English or appropriately subtitled (for foreign movies) content..

apps... ways to get them:

.. google the app and download the apk.
.. find china sites like shafa, get shafa or the individual apks.
.. read this thread from page 1 to end - i remember someone posted a couple of links for apps but not sure if still work.
.. get apps from your seller who can provide links or sites
.. copy from your friend or neighbor.

Can android m8s support 5ghz bandwidth.tq

That depends on the manufacturer, as there are various versions of the M8S box... Are you buying online? Posting the link helps.

I aldy own one but going to change router to dual band n wonder it can support the 5ghz bandwidth

Check your specs sheet then. Even still, that should not stop you from upgrading your router, if you have other devices that can take advantage of the 5Ghz network. As usual, an Ethernet connection is always preferred.

Thanks guys. I will spend sometime to look further.

Thanks bro. surprisingly the m8s support the 5ghz bcos i just bought myself the router to test.

You are welcome.. Means you got the one with 5Ghz support..

How would this perform and compare with usual android?

Different OSes... For one, Intel NUCs are more expensive than your average android box.. Can't really compare both as they are meant for different types of customers... One's a mini-PC, the other isn't.. Both have strengths and limitations.. So depends on your budget, current & future needs.

parking good thread

Need setup advice for my mother.. All she care it having tv al hijrah and other astro oasis thing for her new house.


Care to advice?
Connection 5mbps atm

Hi all,
Looking for android TV box for streaming movies, sports and also acts as media centre. I will connect a HD to it too. Is MINIX Neo X7 or X8 more than sufficient? How about Himedia Q5 or Q10?

Think the android will not fulfill that for now, stock to astruk

All that you mentioned can do it

this is a mini pc. think there is a thread on htpc.

question on pc sticks have also come up several times here.




i hope someone who is using pc stick-mini pc can start a new thread on the subject.

everyone's looking for some box, will be good to be informed what's the latest available in the market.

Advice:
*How tech-savvy is your mum?
*Would she be comfortable using a regular mouse or airmouse to navigate an android box and its apps? Sure, you could set an app to auto-run at startup... If for some reason it crashes, etc?
*Buying an android box does not automatically provide or maintain such live TV services or any service. So prepare for some hands-on, if needed. So find the source...Play the source.
*5Mbps may work depending on the strength of the servers being connected to and your network. Its far from ideal... 10Mbps and above is recommended.

All the boxes you've mentioned can fulfill your requirements above... The question is "How well"? Especially the bold part. You need to think of it as buying a car.. All cars can drive from point A to point B, yet each model does it differently and offers "perks" than the other models. So you need to analyze thy requirements.. For example,
*Budget?
*What type of files do you intend to play?
*Video & audio formats?
*Do you care about HD audio passthrough tech?
*Are you familiar with streaming sources? etc...

Hello sifu.. Just recently learn about android box because i am never TV person. This is for my grandma and my about-to-be-stay-at-home wife. I've read a few good pages and wishes to seek clarity. Please guide me.

I am currently with unifi hypp tv. My unifi is the new 30mbps. The programmes and prices are ridiculous. I do not wish to go back to astro.

My wife watches english tv shows and movies only.
My grandma watches korean & japan tv shows and movies only (with mandarin sub or dub)
My 2yo kid with his regular cartoon.

40 inch tv.

What are the options of box to purchase at the budget between RM300 to RM500?
Does the add-ons that i need to install fulfills the criteria i need? My family doesnt watch chinese stuffs.

My friend was recommending me Mibox but another says it cant support KODI and another says android box. I am very confused by the available options (and the relativity of every name) and couldnt tell whats best for the criteria above. I dont usually get to watch TV due to the nature of my work so this is purely for my family. This may seems like some effortless man asking to be spoon fed but please please help.
