Does this one require root? Since I will need to access root directory. I last rooted a phone was back in 2012, bear with me on this stupid question. blush.gif

If you have ES File Explorer installed, it also comes with text editor called "ES Note Editor"... To create a text file:
*Open ES File Explorer.
*Navigate to the folder you wish to create/store the file in.
*Tap the "New" or "+" icon.
*Select "File". Then name accordingly.. Here's an example.. "testfile.txt".
*Select the newly created file and choose ES Note Editor to edit the text file.
*Type away.
*Profit!

I already suspected that it is from ES File Explorer. biggrin.gif
Thanks for all the clear steps, I will be able to explore further then. biggrin.gif
Time to check out Kodi. icon_idea.gif

It very well could.. Software decoding, etc.. Questions are, Will the audio be down-mixed to say Stereo? As I seriously doubt it possesses pass-through capabilities. Remember, its a basic box and not a dedicated media powerhouse.

according to the SoC specs, the hardware itself capable decoding HD audio; is it possible to enable "pass through" since the hardware able to recognize HD audio?

It's a pity that the box only plays max 720p for YouTube app. Any tweak to make it to play at least 1080p? biggrin.gif

Scanned thru the specs sheet and there's no mention of passthrough capabilities. Also, being able to decode certain HD audio formats does not translate to supplying pure HD audio.. Typically means, it'll decoded the audio streams and possibly send out as perhaps PCM.

What a specs sheet says and what has been enabled or is supported by the firmware are different things. One has to remember, this is an extremely basic box, purchased & distributed to subscribers for one specific purpose.. TM's Hypptv Service.. So, if your requirements are more, then you'd have to invest in a proper android box or HTPC or truly "Smart" TV & an accompanying HT/AVR system that's compatible with such advanced audio processing..

You could try searching for a customized YouTube app version that does 1080p & runs on the device. Else, see above.. smile.gif

Good day,

I received pop up message to clear up some space in the box.
I did that on the app menu page but however all setting in Kodi specifically Exodus went missing.
I'm not sure how it relate but i didn't delete the Kodi apps.
So in future what should i delete/clear if i receive the same request.

Thank you.
