QUOTE(jchenyp @ Apr 14 2018, 10:00 PM) Hi may I know how you all install Set Orientation on Mi Box, I download the APK and use Es explorer, I select the APK and later the install option is grey out If I'm not mistaken you can just find one from the Google PlayStore. No need to use external APK. Think I read somewhere the latest update causes issues on APK installations

Just press power button off and then on back. Not turning the entire device off. If still cannot. Try others orientation apps. Also what is your box Android version. This post has been edited by Andrewtst: Apr 15 2018, 09:13 PM

I encountered this at first too. The real reason is this: https://www.reddit.com/r/AndroidTV/comments...n_on_androidtv/My work around was I did an ADB install of the Set Orientation app APK. Somehow this bypass the need for Android app permissions. ADB install is now my favourite method to sideload apps on Android TV. There is section in this article about using ADB install: https://www.howtogeek.com/280763/how-to-sid...-on-android-tv/I didn't install Android SDK to get ADB, but used this one from XDA instead: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790hope all this helps.

Guys, just got my mibox 3s enhanced, when i tried to test play HK/other drama(1080p/720p) through Kodi it's very choppy, it's stuttering like frames drop. I'm sure it's not about my the buffer because i have 30mb unifi. When there are Kodi UI elements overlay on the screen while a movie is playing, the playback is smooth though. Videos in youtube/terrarium is fine at the moment
Anyone knows what happen?
i own a 55" sony TV by the way

I don't have any mentioned issue in my Mi Box Malaysia edition and I running the box at 4k60hz resolution. This post has been edited by Andrewtst: Apr 19 2018, 11:48 AM

Works well most of the time until someone touches the usb hub's connection / cable. if that happens, then need to restart the mibox again for my case.
