Just got a Mibox. Any apps do you recommend?

My unit has no language selection. It is in Chinese only. Do Xiaomi sells an international version with other languages?

Must install shafa first, then go in shafa install other app.

You need to test one by one which app can run, everyone line speed different.

I install from thumb drive.

But some apps, like Showbox, A直播, I can't make selection doh.gif
These apps are designed for smart phones with touch screen. TV got no touch screen, and I got no idea know how to scroll and select unsure.gif

Anyone has tried the Showbox app? It has 'download' and 'watch now' options. But when I click download nothing happens.

I installed Taiwan Good app.
One of the program is supposedly available in two languages - Mandarin & Hokkien.

Please may I know how to switch between the languages?

I connect my Mi Box to Samsung TV.
I notice that the TV is not able to display the 'full screen', with the edges clipped off. See attached picture.

Is there any way to rectify it?

Change your TV resolution to "just scan" instead of widescreen.

Resolved. Thanks!

head on to kodi thread to learn about the addons. Dramago and KissAsian in particular wink.gif To install youtube, you need to root your mibox. If I'm not mistaken, you can install that in Kodi too. Much easier than rooting and installing some google stuff.

Oh wow, how come mine don't have? You even have netflix. My mi box is version 3, does it matter? Did you update your mi OS?

No, never upgraded mi box firmware.
But I think it could be related to shafa version. Mine is 4.7.7.
