Read that this range of products can't run Astro Go.

Is it because the firmware is rooted ?

Thinking to upgrade my GT1 Ultimate to Android 7. Need to read through.

Did anyone saw the new Beelink GS1? It stated 6K resolution.

4K content is already rare and killing the bandwidth.

6K content, most of the time it will have to be down-scaled. A waste of bandwidth to bring down 6K content, downscale and play.

I bought such a keyboard from Lazada before. As with all online purchase, it is hard to tell if the seller is going to send you to exact item indicate on the sales literature.

I received something which I believe it is an imitation. But what are you going to do ? Send back for replacement etc etc is troublesome and also incur cost.

Just make do with it finally.

Anyone tried UGOOS AM3 firmware on GT1?

This UGOOS AM3 firmware is a universal firmware which can work for different boards ?

In another thread someone mentioned he used this for a different model of tv box.

Okay found it from the internet. Beelink GT1, Alfawise S92 and Mini M8S Pro are very similar hardware based on Amlogic q201 reference board, perhaps difference only in the wireless chip.

Okey, good news guys, I confirm UGOOS AM3 firmware Ver. 1.1.4 can run Astro On The Go and Njoi apps. Firmware Ver. 2.0.0 and 2.0.1 cannot.

When on firmware ver.2.0.0, AOTG keep on loading but no video come out, on ver. 1.1.4 work like charm..

Yes I have seen this error before.

Another common error is after spinning for a while, there is an error message comes out complaining invalid video format error code 080000000 or something.

Both errors look like some kind of video decoding issue.

The ver 1.1.4 is an android 6 32 bit build.

The vers 2.0 is an android 7 64 bit build.

If not mistaken.

there should be many interested buyers if the stated features work well and not too pricey.

RM500+ on a online store, price too steep. Let's wait for more manufacturers to jump in and drop the price.

looking forward to yr full review!

i am especially interested to know if it can pass through dtshdma/ddtruehd/atmos/dtsx.

not expecting it to do, but hope it does! biggrin.gif
that is a little pricey.

then again, it 4+64, 2Xusb3, voice search, airmouse function...

need to read more reviews.

I think this box is more catered for gamers. Typical video streaming does not require better CPU.

this GT1-A is an interesting box although using the older s912 and android7.1.

an upgrade of GT1, the reviews say it can do Netflix HD/4K.

1 review say it can pass thru dtshdma/ddtruehd (but not dtsx/ddatmos), another says only dd/dts...?

any chance u chance u can test to confirm this?

If my understanding is correct, this box is the older hardware based on gt1 but added Widevine L1 certification at factory.

The most funny part is both the GT1-A and the GT king are Widevine L1 and rooted, but one can play netflix 4k and one cannot. The difference is one is Android TV and another is not ( Netflix has different binaries on ATV and phone ) ?

The audio passthrough whatever you could find for GT1 should be applicable for GT1-A.

Many reviews on GT1-A have been presented but I think one must not missed this one :-

https://mxqproject.com/beelink-gt1-a-netfli...-chinese-tv-box

And the YouTube video :-



If you watch the review you noticed that what is running on the box is the ATV version of Netflix, the app logo with Red words netflix in white background and it is easy to navigate using remote. So this is true ATV netflix.

In summary the review person is kind of sceptical that this has gotten full netflix certification ....and so it might break in the future ......

I am browsing through all Beelink products, seems they have no box which has an external antenna. Bummer ! I don't trust boxes without external antenna. If ones were to check beelink website, they got loads of complaints poor wifi performance. doh.gif

right after GT1-A, out comes GTmini-A! biggrin.gif

this one is newer... S905x2 chipset, Android8.1.

will be a better buy than gt1-A overall... assuming u want netflix HD and L1 doesn't break later.

will see coming what coming reviews say about lossless audio...
*
The freaktab web site ROM creator said the L1 is not broken and he created the two versions of ROM for GTmini-A, which can run either ATV or normal.

Anyone using this?

I think this might be the best one current on the market due to the best value.

Can we install apk like HK,US drama movies on this box?
*
Why not ?

Only "problem" is it is already rooted. None techie will be nervous about removing the root.

Two choices of ROM, ATV from Beelink, and standard android from freaktab.

All the above are not real problem. Real problem is WiFi is expected to be bad, terribly bad.

when it comes to beelink, it can get confusing... so many models, variations, some sellers change ROM, what else...

i am no longer sure which one is which! biggrin.gif

just today, i read gt1-a CANNOT do astrogo.
https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/4405774/+300

about ahem apps, in general... my experience, ATV is restrictive, regular android better.
i can easily recall a few apps that are like that.
but some boxes appear to come with DUAL modes... how good, no idea.

perhaps for this reason, it makes more sense to get a more established brand model that will do what u really want but cost more.
ATV, widevine L1 - if it is not genuinely certified, there is always a risk it will fail one day.

The whole issue on root thing might change with the new beta. Because the beta is not particularly about root.
