Future apps... Which yet to exist.

The biggest app in my collection is kodi, 100mb or so, the rest are 10, 20, 30mb.

To have apps fill up available 5gb ram, u need 50 of them like kodi or 10x500mb apps biggrin.gif

Granted they will come 5 yrs from now or late4.

But that also need something like 5gbps speed.

By the, it be a whole new gen of boxes, probably very diff from what we have today.

oh, 1 box is windows based, not surprise.
another box is rockchip, kodi and spmc has dropped support on it.

if not mistaken, s905 and s905x is hard limited by 2GB ram and s912 is hard limited by 4GB ram.

i doubt those s905 box with 3GB ram will hav full 3072MB ram. plz enlighten me more about ram capacity vs chipset limitation.

android tv box will eventually become smart home entertainment hub, the increasing processing power and ram capacity will be inevitable. but for normal user who just use it for watching drama and live tv, 2GB ram enough la…of course no harm having more ram if one could afford it.

lol…finally use dac as we suggested early laugh.gif

for better dynamic range sound, remember do setting on kodi/spmc.

If you can still use your current device.. I'd advise you hold off for the soon-to-be-released box from Minix. Especially if you are a frequent Kodi user. They've teased the device last year and it should drop sometime later in the year.

Yes, just buy what is sufficient. I was looking at 16GB and 32GB, not much difference in pricing, so took 32GB but it comes with 3GB RAM. tongue.gif

Yes, what a long painful journey.

I will play around on the settings again.

Use individually? Yes. Simultaneously? Difficult to achieve as it depends on the usual lot of factors. Headset compatibility, third party app (usually supplied by the headset maker), box's hardware and firmware.. Summary: do the test yourself and if it works..cool.. else, cool2.gif

To use simultaneously that is. Box is minix u1 if that info helps? Don't want to buy 2 Bluetooth headsets and find out later that it can't be used simultaneously. Maybe just buy cheapo ones to test first lol.
