Then you should also try another type myiptv, just to collate the quality stream and channels... Most Chinese would go for the latter

Been a few weeks never post ,
Wanted to ask about a few question

Without root

-Does andorid box without rooting able to use openVPN ?
-Normally does an android box able to supply 5v to an external output for 2.5 hard disk stable and constantly for TWO external hard disk 5+5v ? as I know , some android box actually using less than the voltage supply printed on the specification.
-So which TVbox brand support mounting ext4 by default ?
-Which brand of Andorid TVbox allow move application to sdcard ? some application really takes up few GB of space or games.
-Which brand of Andorid TVbox allow titanium backup without root ? or own android tvbox backup apps build in to backup apps+data together ?

Most of the question where some android box tv mention rooting will void warranty.If I need to access those privilege option above.Which model or brand works above ?

The Minix Neo U1 ticks all the above... So the answers below will be related to it..

1. Yes and No.. So it depends...
2. Typically, if an external HD requires more power than a USB port can supply (direct connection..no hubs), it'd ship with its own power supply..
3. See above
4. It ships with 16GB fast eMMC storage.. I wouldn't worry about it. Unless you have almost no internal flash left, there is very little to no benefit in moving your apps to the SD card. If you do move your apps to the SD card, be prepared as its possible to (over time) see your start up time almost double as the SD card (even most 60MB/sec cards) is almost twice as slow as the internal flash memory.
5. Haven't tested this but should pose no issues as the Neo U1 may be rooted and unrooted safely and at will. The Neo U1 ships with a Backup & Restore app. Haven't used em myself, cuz never had to..
6. Even the likes of Samsung (majority of the manufacturers) consider rooting as immediately voiding your warranty. Good thing? See Answer #5.

Disclaimer: Root is an advanced method within Android that gives you permissions to perform actions on your device that are not otherwise possible. These abilities allow you and your installed apps to perform actions on your device that can prove detrimental to your device. Please proceed with caution and understand that you are doing so at your own risk, I will not be held responsible if your device encounters issues. It is possible that you may brick your device, rendering it completely unusable, so please be careful.
Also, unless the manufacturer (i.e. Minix) states otherwise, rooting your device immediately invalidates your warranty. You’ve been warned!

Thanks for the fast reply biggrin.gif

1. Using openvpn normally for region restriction , you should know some streaming apps only able to stream on selected country , even youtube https://www.youtube.com/user/bwf also can be set so can't watch badminton match live before Qfinals and not knowing which channel showing specific sports on this coming Rio.

2. Actually my question is about , which TVbox support over two 2.5 external hard disk simultaneously plugin where able to provide 2 5v of power output.2 USB port with 5v output support.

3. I understand , different manufacturer and brand having different kernel support of mounting extra format.Just asking whether which brand support ext4 mounting or HFS+ for apple without root.

4. I do understand it get slower when it load but if I had installing few HD games it can easily filling up the space . Just a simple FF9 , COD and etc will take 2GB.

5. Since it shipped with backup , then I'd the best to restore them.

6. Sometimes , root access really needed for some reason behind , taking example of not enough ram , bloated preinstall build apps that cannot be delete without root user and etc.

Anyhow thanks for the reply , so Minix Neo U1 fits all ? I'll try to find out more goggling on it but the price is a bit sweat.gif .

Finally took a dive and got the M8s android TV
Connected it via ethernet and video runs really smoothly for most apps.

Currently looking for providers for documentaries/chinese/korean dramas.

How much do you pay for myiptv per year/month ?
I tried looking for it online but I can't seem to find anything concrete.
There are various dealers, one seem to charge RM310 per year. At that price, I might just subscribe to Netflix. But Netflix doesn't have everything I want.

Also, are there any lag or video compression issues ?

guys... again, let's be reminded that some of these "iptv" are illegitimate, even illegal.

we should not discuss them in detail in a public forum.

let's not get admin into trouble, astro staff/lawyers may be reading.

if anything, can do pm, keep it private and low profile.
