yes bro, i cant settle with normal DTS/DD, i can actually hear the differences even with only 3.1 setup, u just need a decent HT setup for that. Yeah, the old Realtek 1195 chip can do HD audio and 3D few years back no sweat, but now seems like even box selling for 300-400 also cant do that sad.gif

So bro, what's your recommendation for android box that can do that? i actually bought a mibox 3 enhanced edition for my parents to watch asteruk via internet, i having 5.1 setup at my living room so i was hoping that i can use that mi box to replace my againg 1195 media player. But currently outstation so unable to setup, gonna hope that people are correct with KODI r17 can passthru dtshdma and truehd

Simple.... Get either of these 2.. If budget can't afford, don't question... Either increase or settle for less..

*Nvidia Shield TV 2 or
*Minix Neo U9-H.

Not anytime soon.. Have to overhaul current AV system & increase broadband speeds (TM's free upgrade hasn't kicked in yet) first to take full advantage of it. Otherwise, it'll be overkill for my current needs, which the Neo U1 satisfies (somewhat). brows.gif

Hi, any recommendation?

Budget: below RM180
Requirement: 720p, just wanna watch from app Astro on The Go, HyppTV, NHK World. I assume all Android box can install the same TV app as in Android phone?

Pls tell if this isnt realistic. Real noob lel

the apps are the same.

most apps will play the same.

but not all the same for all boxes.

particularly for aotg and hyppewhere which work good on tablets and phones but not on all boxes.

u do need to check with the actual users of a specific box.

As AVFAN says... Hard to find a box at that price point that will run all three apps without issue.. Or even will continue to run any of em after an app update is pushed. IMO, rather than end up with a severely subpar device when either of the apps above isn't working and you can't run other capable apps on it... better increase your budget, get a better device, so at minimum, you still have a device capable of running other apps well.

For astro on the go and hypptv you must be more careful as it doesn't work on rooted device. Need to find non root android box

Most china box come with pre root. Best way to know is to watch review from youtube. They usually do root checking in their video.

AFAIK...mostly all android boxes are not sanctioned for AOTH, HyppTV, etc. Only by luck they play, and no guarantee next update won't break it...

You can try spoofing it to look like a phone...maybe that will help for a while.

This one is interesting in that...

Everyday, people curse n swear, moan n groan about axtro. But at the same time, want a box to do aotg for free. laugh.gif

If a box cant do aotg, next best is to have it on phone or tablet, cast to tv... but there are black bars, not full screen, poor resolution like 360 or worse, sometimes no audio.

I suspect axtro is spending resources to make it difficult and frustrating for all freeloaders.)

Better off using kodi addons or china apps for live sports.
