very slow, laggy and hangs a lot when using kodi. wifi is so weak. When I use X1, my wifi shows strong.
i am surprised.pls do more tests... try ethernet.
kodi 17 can be tough for some devices, maybe try 16.1.

anyone still using popcorntime?
i stopped using it when kodi quasar became a better option. there are many popcorn forks, many versions for various devices. the new popcorns... (pls dun ask me where to get, google please.. ) new look, better structured, easier navigation. but choice of video links now very limited. the android 4.x version allows u to use diff players available in yr box, e.g. native player, kodi player, even yr smart tv player. if correct player used, the DD videos will give DD audio. there is also a version for androidtv (smart tv's, etc.), so it is handy to stick it into yr tv direct. |

I realised that there's noticeable improvement of video quality on Q5 Pro vs other device with S912, anyone shares the same view?

There's a few versions of it even if you ignore the branding. Thanks. Dislike Remote so so only. UI bit weird, when u close a program,the screen goes black then only goes into the homepage. Find it irritating Like OTA supported, snappy Good wifi User friendly cos UI and Android 6.0.1 One-Key to Live and One-Key to Kodi: The custom remote control for A95X comes with two special features: One-Key to Live and One-Key to Kodi DTS Passthrough capable |

QUOTE(coolguy99 @ Feb 18 2017, 09:06 AM) Minix Neo U1 better than the MiBox? Yes, no doubts. However, specs-wise and if you have a 4K HDR TV, get the HiMedia Q10 Pro (some mandarin may be required) instead.The best remains the Nvidia Shield TV Box running Android TV OS. |

Got myself the neo u1 + a1 air mouse. Installed kodi 17 Amlogic version and it works quite well. No issues so far.
Anyways, was wandering if anyone done a comparison of u1 vs Himedia q5/Q10 pro? Any major difference? U1 is cheaper though and the a1 air mouse has a good review all around as well. |

Checked out their support website and firmware updates and instructions are in English too.. Himedia is still a young co. Only 12 years old.From a small media player maker in shenzhen for china market to a full english international android box. Its their experience in media players that make the native player a powerful one. Something like their hallmark, will keep going to provide the best licensed codecs for audio and video. A 5 yr old q series can do hd audio, iso, bdmv while others today still cant do dts or dd. Few years ago, too young to be international, focus on home market. Now, internationally, they have made the breakthrough with exbihitions, expos, conferences, agents and distributors. There is a now lot of support in english in futeko, kodi and ither english forums and websites. |
