Hi, can anyone advise if M8S is descent enough of an android box?

Yup. Should be decent. Using it myself. Great hardware. Can play downloaded mkv files smoothly from 1TB external HD with dolby/thx sound quality (requires latest firmware update).

How much is this box?

how about kodi.

No problem 👌

Thanks for the input, may god bless you.

Hi... New to xbmc and kodi... How do we set the movie poster to the movie we have in the hdd. Thanks

hi anyone got any stable football live stream / addons available out there? most of them very slow during real match.. dont mind if need to subscribe for small amount also if the server is good. i got astro on the go but cannot install/run the app inside the android box because the 'rooted' checking. (try to bypass but cannot for some reason)..

I have 1GB RAM box. What's the max cache I can set? That is after considering the amount of RAM to run android and Kodi.

I'm thinking of upgrading to a 2GB RAM box. I read that AmLogic s812 M8S is quite good. Any users that can comment on this box?

hi, i am using it right now. so far so good. no issue. most of the time watching kodi, MoviesHD and CartoonHD. Watching downloaded MKV movies also no issues .

IMHO, If you can upgrade to a 2GB RAM equipped box, do so. Then you can increase the cache size should you run into buffering issues that shouldn't normally occur. About the M8s Amlogic S812 box, guess you've gotten real user feedback on it.

Thanks for your reply! BTW what's your internet speed? I'm using unifi VIP10 but still buffering using my 1GB box.

I've read about how amazing the Minix Neo X8-H plus but it is a bit too much for me budget wise and usage.

I've read that you said any box under RM300 are not good. But the X8 is based on AmLogic S812 too. But the M8s is half the price of X8. So, what makes X8 better than M8S hardware wise?

There are addons for poster/fanart that you can install to automatically fetch the necessary files.

However, I prefer to choose my movie posters.

Copy the poster jpg file to the folder of the movie and rename it poster.jpg. The folder will appear in Kodi as a poster. Make another copy of poster.jpg and rename it name_of_movie_file.tbn and the movie file will appear as a thumbnail.

A little bit of extra work, but I organize my movie collection in exactly the way I want.

Hey, a good box is more than just having a particular CPU, if the OS isn't optimized to take advantage of it and other components, you'll still have a buggy box. The Minix Neo X8-H plus might not be the perfect box out there but there's no denying that it enjoys decent support and tons of reviews out there about it. Sure its more expensive, but I'd rather wait a month or 6 to save up the extra cash to buy a satisfactory box than one that might pose issues, aka, android boxes or sticks under $70. If you only need KODI, how about the RPI 2? FYI, its requires more hands on.

You can use MediaELch or Ember Media Manager to organize your library and set scraping in KODI to local info. I prefer Ember.
