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.

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.

You know how certain videos, the actor's voice will be so soft, have to turn up the sound then boom explosion/music make you deaf, anyway to fix this? Software fix maybe?
*
this annoyance is found in some videos, not all.

if playing thru AVR, it's easy - incr center speaking vol, decrease all the rest.

Usually the player or TV "should" down mix properly...unless they are really old...chances are high the guy screws up the encoding...

If it's a 2.0, new AVR won't help...
*
2.0 videos... can.

don't let AVR do it stereo, set it to PLII cinema or DTS Neo 6! rclxms.gif

no choice for some of those low level or poorly encoded files.

and for kodi17 quasar dd/dts streams until i get the wrapper that will do it properly!

Thank you for your advice.
How to find out which android box support iflix?
Is it written in the box?
*
not typically "written" on the box.

some boxes can, some cannot.

some models of same brand can, some cannot.

same applies to astro-on-the-go, hypptv e'where.

you can ask the seller of the box.

u can also ask users in the individual box threads, see page 1-2.

i test install hypptv everywhere on the phone

and hard truth is just only able to watch the basic free package...

and my aneka pack couldnt watch sad.gif

that shouldn't be.

try another phone or tablet.

hypp e'where, iflix and aotg - all work well on mobile device.

only boxes have problems.

Mi MDZ-09-AK can we flash ROM to be fully English ?
If yes, any links I can follow ?

You need to check with manufacturer website, check other same model users.

Same manufacturer, diff models meant for diff markets, use diff firmwares.

Wrong firmware will cause unforeseen problems.

Typically, u can set to english language at android settings, then install 3rd party launcher, all will be english.

However, diff box makers may have certain restrictions and controls in their firmware.

Can check with other mibox users:

Youtube now replay england-china mixed...not streaming S korea-denmark women doubles.

Having 2 or 3 apps for this kind of event is impt. tongue.gif

I learned that in world cup 2014 and euro 2016.

you are using kodi?

Like i just said, i use multiple apps, cannot rely on just one for free reliable live sports hd streams.

I hv 4 devices, each using a diff app on standby.

One goes down, i have 3 backups. tongue.gif

Kodi.. dont know.. it is a backup, no need to use so far.

i m not a big sports fan but i get serious when i wanna watch. laugh.gif

I only watch world cup, euro cu p, thomas cup and all england.
