QUOTE(realone @ Mar 22 2018, 04:29 PM) Also getting mibox 3 from the same person in lazada store. Just got it last two days ago. Tried astro go, Kodi, spotify, plex, terranium, youtube, netflix. All works great with and without mouse assistance. tried using usb to ethernet for internet connection but found that the mibox running not smoothly. Then return back to using wireless connection (5Ghz wifi router). everything go smoothly now. Same experience with the USB Ethernet adapter. I'm also back on wifi 5GHz now. Someone else was saying on this thread that Xiaomi's own brand USB Ethernet adapter works well. Haven't bought it yet to try.However, there are few things to highlight such as NO HDR in netflix, some 4k hdr mkv are not smoothly played in mibox3 using KODI, and No HDMI CEC support as well. Currently it still running on stock firmware, in spite of knowing got apk installation problem with the latest firmware. |

sifus sekalian...
can mibox international model plays 3GP, AVI, FLV, M2TS, MKV, MOV, MP4, MPEG, TS formats ? Based on this comparison website: https://www.gearbest.com/compare-333724_584..._426056-21_21_4, seems like only supports 4K x 2K, H.264, H.265, VP9 Profile-2 formats ? |

Dear all sifu,
I tried to read all the post and use the search function. But I still cannot get my answer and hope you all can clear my doubts. I plan to buy Mi Box 4 from China and ONLY watch China dramas and movies. The reason is my wife is from China mainland and she only watches China dramas and movies. Question, Mi Box 4 China version can use in Malaysia just plug and play or I still need VPN or root? Thank you very much for all the sifu feedback!

Watch this https://youtu.be/LuEYd1fpstU tried it, it works but only with X-plore; doesn't work with esf fm or asus fm. still, as long as there is a way.

QUOTE(Frankenstein @ Mar 22 2018, 11:50 AM) Hey bro, couple questions: I'm not sure about Amazon Fire TV, but for the Mi Box, I read that its the keyboard thats causing the crashes.What were the tweaks in order to install Astro on the Go? Can it work without a mouse and keyboard? Cause I'm planning to install it on an Amazon Fire TV stick using Aptoide TV and I just need to know if it works with Android TVs. After you download the app, first you download any orientation app to force it to landscape view. Then you install a INDIC keyboard, set it as default, and you're done! Not keyboard, but navigation still requires a mouse. |

Can it work without a mouse and keyboard? Cause I'm planning to install it on an Amazon Fire TV stick using Aptoide TV and I just need to know if it works with Android TVs. so, there is no google's playstore but amazon appstore. if aptoide can give u the right apk's there's a chance it may work. might be worth your while to post at below, see if any other fire tv users can comment: https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/4200167/+2960 |
