You could turn your mac into a PLEX server and setting your external drive as the media source. And install PLEX app into your android box. Your mac will act as a server streaming the media content through your network. The only caviat is your mac (PLEX server) will have to stay β€œturn on” while you stream from your android box.

why make it so difficult,
jus enable smb/win file sharing, kodi support smb.
and it is fast!

wan to ask netflix,
my androidtv when play youtube/kodi max resolution is fhd.
it can only get uhd when using external player via hdmi.

normally i able to check the resolution when i press Info at remote control.
but when i click Info while using netflix, it got bypass with netflix download info speed and the resolution.

the question is when i use netflix, it show 2160 download quality content.
so does the netflix really show 4k resolution...?
or only the source video is 4k but the resolution is still 1080?

ps... my tv is skyworth... 55" android tv

ok...

somehow im glad my tv support netflix uhd, i expect fhd only.
anyway i hv htpc for the 4k playback, so i hv no worry.

actually not gamble, coz i review samsung is not lasting.
lg smart tv (not androidtv) suck, no update.
sony the best options, price also not much different. 2.7k can get.

at the end i choose skyworth bcoz skyworth manufacture for toshiba and hisense brand also... combo with 5years warranty, buildin androidtv and chromecast is hard to resist.

ps: i got email cs, up till now no reply... cs really suck.

Oh ok, i get it now...

Scenario 1: Meaning split my HDMI out to RGB and Audio (using a splitter) then RGB to monitor and Audio to speaker.

Scenario 2: Just use the HDMI for video out, and use AV port for speaker if AV port is available.

Thanks so much.
Appreciate it.
*
i doubt scenario 2 will works, hv to either 1. not both at the same time.

fyi for audio output, some media player hv headphone output and optical output. both will works as audio feed for ur speaker.

I have a fire tv stick and I love it! I use it to use Netflix, Spotify, Prime Video, iFlix and Plex (plus Kodi sometimes).
Astro's app is an Android app tho and not an Android TV app, thus it won't work well on it.

But other than that, getting the Amazon fire tv stick was my best purchase at rm130.

wanna ask ur tv stick able to play astro go?

Almost (if not all) all Android boxes will support ext HD. Question is how well they perform and what their max storage limit is. Minix boxes are great, go for it.. Get the Minix Neo U9-H + the Minix Neo A3 Airmouse too. Both will handle your needs. Later, if you game, can decide on a gamepad..  biggrin.gif
Trust me.. Unless your friend knows that he'll never want to use regular Android apps etc.. Don't recommend such devices.. They are great if you stick to what they are designed and locked in for.. Once want to go out, then incompatibility issues will crop up..and guess who's going to be called each time to sort issues? Yeah.. You.  laugh.gif

i bought tv stick n fire tv for my fren b4.
but too bad, he didn't use astro go...
it is excellent device, tat y i wan to recommend tv cube for my other frenz.
