guys newbie here with android tv.

wanted to ask, say for example device like 1OTT, those channels that they claim they have. we can always download the app/apk from Google Play store? does this apply to all android boxes out there?

if yes, can i DIY it with a Xiaomi Mi Box Mini?

thank you sifus

to my knowledge there r at least 3 types of apks for androids:

1. proprietory - will only work on that brand/model; include legit movie/tv packages that manufacturer paid license.

2. apps found in playstore - some payable, some free; common utility apps found here.

3. other apps not found in playstore, get from website or other users - this is where some the best apps are!
whether an app that works on one device can work on another may depend on the specs and memory of the device - there is no guarantee.

thanks! any recommended website to get apks not available in playstore? prefer chinese tvb and movies. tried googling but couldn't any sad.gif

check yr device for available internal memory.

popcorn is torrent based, need sufficient internal memory to work well.
if available is small, say 2gb, only small files will work.
if way too small, nothing will work.
if there is >6gb, everything will work.

it loads and everything just that the i can't seem to navigate around the films title. the box border is not highlighted (i assume it's not selected)
i'm using mi box mini.
