Doesn't seem to be officially supported by the Remix guys.. No?..
Remix OS is indeed refreshing... Though only time will tell how long they'll last especially as they currently do not have as much backing as Cyanogenmod did..Yet, that had to close shop.

This a rebrand... aka Unuiga S905/U1...was supposed to be a $40 crowdfunded project but did not meet target

Unuiga/Jide went ahead anyway to build and list it at about $75 last year...

They used good parts too...RAM/ROM speed is faster than Minix U1, above average Lan, touch sensitive on/off/standby switch, big piece of metal plate as heat sink, but cheap out on wifi antenna, and number of USB ports.

Unuiga/Jide is now making the IO and IO+...shipping soon...yeah...wish them live long and prosper..

IO+ needs to wait until Q4...

Yeah...RK & 7.1 problem I think...

Yup... Even the Remix IO+ looks to be obsolete on arrival despite using Rockchip’s latest hexacore RK3399. While it's better than AMLogic's S912 processor, the RK3399 lacks TV box-ish features such as HDR. Not so good when it's the rage now.. Also doubt it supports Dolby Vision either and software can't help with such.. Well, at it's current price point, might be worth it to its target audience.

Wonder what AMLogic's currently cooking up?? My major concern is full Kodi compatibility everything... 2018 should be interesting... Mooaarr Power...


Edit: Is this the device... Vensmile U1 TV Box? Looks to be running Remix 2.0. V3.0 was released November last year. Hope it at least gets an upgrade to that... For $50, one gets almost similar specs to the Neo U1 (U1 is still better).. Not bad..

Q4 is going to be too late for an old hardware built on a very old manufacturing process.

Well...its always already obsolete when we buy IT toys...

I think the RK3399 is more for Chromebox/book & Android PC than for TV box. It's expensive when sold as such, and lacking HDR & 7.1 passthrough...the Mi Box 3 enhance, just as powerful & a bit more crippled, is only RM300 while these new boxes are close to doubling that for only a bit more ram/rom... I think these will be discounted soon enough...

Yes that is the device. Don't think it will ever get V3 but who knows...

Ah, but at least with most devices, one gets a few months or more to reign (take the Nvidia Shield TV Box for example).. The Remix with RK3399 in Q4 is super-obsolete.. What to do.. Must have new toys and manufacturers always manage to leave out one or more crucial features.. All I want is that one perfect inexpensive box.

Yes.. I'm still waiting on a proper smartphone - PC - TV experience.. A light and portable device that seamlessly switches across functions.. The Remix OS holds promise in that department.. I wish em luck.. Google could probably pull it off..

Yes..

wifi cannot keep up with the demands of live streaming. connect with network cable and I'm sure you will see the difference.

Did that bro, using Network cable direct to the box. Same results. Don't think is UNIFI problem. Is the copyright issue that they clamp down piracy.

My Xiaomi Mibox is using wifi 5Ghz and I can stream 4K sources with no problem.My speedtest with it got me 28Mbps same as mith my pc wired connection.

Guys,
I'm using Mibox 3 with some free apps from Shafa Market.
I'm using unifi 30Mbps and direct ethernet. Steaming is a total nightmare and not to comment about the video quality.
What's the alternative for me?
And any apps or channel recommend to watch Live Golf, NBA and news?
Please advise

Found this fix for Amlogic S912 dark screen problem.

slow?

but definately the pre-installed kodi is not usable...use kodi 17.1 instead...

For golf, NBA, soccer and news, recommended Made In Canada add-on in Kodi using Acestream​ to play

Not about reading the file format yet... I cannot let it save my cache or anything on my external drive..

as far as i remember it only allows reading from it...

unless already sideload better file explorer apps...


as for for cache / memory expansion it wont because android 4.4 as limited firmware...

I haven't fully explore Kodi or Acestream yet
Mostly I don't the app and immediately play it only

Google is your friend..

any recommended seller that sells the box fully loaded? Appreciate the help. Thanks!
