just wanted to know

what does jailbreak do on mi tv box? and why should we have our box jailbreak?

and whats the difference vs root, i know whats root cos im android user for long time.

thanks

yeah exactly, I already know what root does, pretty much gained full access to the device, giving permission to apps that will access to system lower level that normally is protected.

but ppl out there called this modification on mi TV box "jailbreak" like it's another thing other than root,

since the tv box is also android based, I dont really get it, is jailbreak just another name of root? or different thing



my question is simple:

is Jailbreak = Root?

if it's not, whats the difference? just have a little confusion with "jailbreak" especially in Mi TV box android based device.

if Iphone/IPad IOS I know what jailbreak does, but in mi tv box android device? some ppl say need to jailbreak then root?

ok, thanks

I just got my box today, time to enjoy tonight

mi tv box 3 enhanced (6th gen)

havent tried yet, gonna try later b home

I updated kodi to 17 on my mi tv box

But now passthrough no longer works

Got subtitles but no video and audio, have to disable passthrough for normal playback but no more surround sound

Anyone got solution here?

Alright guys, I've been looking for a clear answer.

As most of you know about Kodi 17.x Passthrough issue since its releases, related to something called IEC audio standard in android Nougat, many devices out there become not supported .
and they said the "Mi Box" is Android 5.x but it has nougat backported code that allow this device supports it. So... I need a clear answer from all Mi Box global users here.

("Mi Box", which model? definitely not china set)

Question:
Does Mi Box (global set/ from Mi Store Malaysia) support Dolby TrueHD, DTS HD passthrough to Amp with Kodi 17.x? What else does it support other than the two i mentioned above?

If it confirmed works, let me know if thats the right model you get from Mi Malaysia

because I've seen many global set variant like 3c or whatever

different model could be different chipset and might not support what I'm looking for
