Just received delivery... Out of box, hook up to tv and connect wifi.

Disappointing performance so far after 1 hour tests. Tried most apps eg kodi (azdrama, filmontv, dramago,etc),  show box, . Either got error or buffering always or lagging

Media center doesnt work ie cannot access my LAN folder, hangs and drops back to menu.

Tried es file explorer, access lan folder, tried to play small avi file with all apps eg mx player, es media player, etc.... Lagging and stuttering. My old wtv player works fine all this while.

Somehow this device affects wifi performance from my tablets and phones etc, its as though its sucking the wifi bandwidth while loading. I had to shutdown this himedia in order to post this in this forum!?!

How?

I tried this morning for a little while, checked the settings of kodi, the addon updates seems to be auto also. Tried manually clicking UPDATE ALL but don't see progress indicator anywhere, not sure completed. Azdrama still doesnt work when playing random HK tv dramas. Dramago works better but not for all especially new episodes don't work (no playback when click on mirror link). All kinds of kodi addons generally don't work or too slow buffering (especially HD) eg. music and movie addons

I hook up a mouse and it's better to stop videos before going back to previous menus using RETURN button on remote etc.... else will be streaming multiple sources at same time.

Moviebox hd works (no buffering in between playback), tried watching RONALDO for few mins.

Media center works now but find the 1080p video quality is very rough, color very cold etc.... when compared side by side with my wdtv.

Is there a way to see what app or downloading activity is running in background? Any way to kill the running app / activity eg. like how we do it on our android phone / tablet?
Will report more later when home

Bro Nicety, is it norm that most of the channels on Renegade are not usable?

Renegade is just TV guide, you need to link the TV program with the live streaming addon as per below guide :

i wan't to ask this support same as blu ray menu ? i download from intenet got bd-iso and bdmv (file structure) also can call up the interactive menu ? i can't play this on my acryan hd3 as it only support bd-lite (mean no menu , only play directly) sad.gif

Bluray full menu required full Bluray stack with full licenses. Therefore most of the media player will support only lite menu as the license will increase the unit cost. To seet he lite menu, just press menu button on your remote while you play back Bluray movie. Blueray lite menu support in Q5II, Q6II, Q10II, Q16II, Q5III, Q10III, Q16III, H8 quad core and H8 Octa core.

Tried to connect the optical cable from H8 to my Onkyo AVR on optical #1 port.

On AVR SELECT DIGITAL AUDIO, selected optical #1.

Cannot get any sound output. Also tried #2, same problem.

Is there something I did wrong? No shape bend on the optical cable. Both ends fully plugged in.

Thanks.

Goto Setting -> play back -> audio output = SPDIF

Many many thanks!

See what I mean when I said where have I gone wrong? Ha. Saw a few overseas threads askAttached Image ing the same question on why no sound! Ha. Though they may not be using H8, I guess they have to do something similar on the audio setting.
On the bottom half of H8 remote, what are
TV mode
Subtitle
Audio buttons for?

I pressed them and some numbers were displayed on the top left corner.

Thanks.
P/S
Just tried to update the setting. From the main menu, went to setting, playback. Cannot find "audio output".

Also opened up Kodi and looked there. Tak ada.

Please clarify. Thanks.
*
Sorry, not "audio output", should be "hdmi output" as per below screen :

Attached Image

The "TV Mode" button is for switch the resolution setting of the box.

The "Subtitle" button is for switch the subtitles when play movie from media center. Most of the blueray file support multiple subtitles, use this button as short cut to switch different subtitle.

The "Audio" button is for switch audio track when play movie from media center.

Many thanks again.

Tried the HDMI output to sxxxx last night, not working either. Will try again later today.

Thanks for the tips on the 3 buttons. The instruction sheet from H8 could be better if it already has what you described on the button function. Maybe they are in the sheet already but either I did not see them or they are so easily missed that I did not see them. Does not matter how good or powerful a product is, if the instruction is not there, lacking or poorly worded, in the view of the customer  that product is just average.

My apology for my criticism on H8. Just trying to make it a better product by improving some of the flaws here and there as a user.  I hope other readers here will find your answers to my questions beneficial to their use of the H8.

Cheerio.

To be honest, today smart gadgets will not have full instruction including the expensive iPhone and iPad which come with minimum instruction. Don't worry, I'm your instruction just feel free to ask, this is our value added service.

You may ask the seller because the seller purposely tag with other brand and model such as cs918 and m8s. And there are few mistake in the spec :
1). H8 Octa core does not have Xunlei
2). H8 does not support HiControl as per Himedia web site.

Nicety,

Wanting to update the firmware to the latest 3.x in your skydrive.

* download and unzip the file to UPDATE directory in a pen drive
* plug the pen drive into the USB port
* start H8 and go to the firmware update menu

Or

* insert a pointed stick into the hole next to the power plug to start the firmware update?

Thanks.
P/S  Mine has kernel version = 3.10. Does this mean I already have the latest firmware 3.x? Thanks.
*
H8 Octa core 2GB ram model latest firmware is 107, I think you goto wrong folder already. 3.0.1 is under the Q16 folder, pls take note.

H8 Octa core 1GB budgetary model is use different firmware, pls kindly take note. The latest firmware for budgetary model is 1.0.5.

As per my firmware step by step guide, there is two method to refresh firmware, via setting or Restore button. Restore button is clean upgrade, but it will purge all the apps installed. My usual advise is apply new patch only if you encounter problem.
