I have got one external Samsung USB blu-ray drive. Could I connect it to the H8 and play dvd or blu-ray movies from it from any discs that I bought? Basically H8 also served as dvd, cd and blu-ray disc player?

Oh what a shame. Could you request the manufacturer to provide this feature? Technically it should not be tough, or is there an add-on to be able to do that? For Windows pc it is straight forward and it is a must. Don't see why android can't do it.

QUOTE(nicety @ Feb 19 2016, 06:39 PM) Yes, our boxes are flash with latest firmware and preinstalled with free streaming apps. However, to be noted that Netflix is working well with Hinedia but iflix is not compatible with the chipset. Hi Nicety, am looking to change from my old B351 android box to one of HiMedia line-ups. you were saying that iFlix is not compatible, is this apply to all himedia products?

Please find below reasons that Android do not support external Blu-ray drive : https://community.futuremark.com/forum/show...driver-softwareWhen you purchase External Blu-ray drive, typical Blue-ray manufacturer will indicate support OS : Windows XP, Windows VISTA, Windows 7,...and it bundled with Windows driver or MAC OS bin file for you to install. Hardly you could find Blu-ray drive in the market that support Android OS.

Always use native VPN protocol such PPTP or L2TP, below link is the example : https://www.securitykiss.com/resources/tuto...s/l2tp_android/P/S: typically we don't encourage to use VPN unless there is seriously trottling or blocking by ISP.

Dear Customers,
Please don't jump into Kodi 16.0 at the moment, please wait for Kodi 16.1 or Kodi 16.2 stable version.

Recently many movie or drama apps is blocked and restricted to china user only  The firmware release depend on the bugs reported, so far the firmware version has been 9 versions since product launched. We do not disclosed the apps preinstalled openly, otherwise it is blocked the next day. If you have any apps in mind just let us know, will install for you. Most of the well known apps has Geo blocked which you mean only China IP can watch. But there are other alternative apps as per shared by my customers could watch without Geo block.
