Appreciate the advice & contributions here.  My Old TV Box is not being supported anymore (keeps on buffering every 5 - 10 seconds) and the vendor is asking me to buy a new one ... I just use it to watch live news .. eg. France 24, BBC, Al Jazeera etc sometimes. 
Any way of doing so?  Many thanks.

My Mecool km2 is about  2 mths old. Will updating its firmware wipe out all my settings n apps?.

techxreviews stated that Mecool KM7 is not a certified Android TV Box, don’t get access to full Google Play Store. Is it to say KM7 unable to download and watch the free unifi streaming apps like iQiyi, BBC Player, Lionsgate, unifi PlayTV for Ultimate package subscriber?

KM7 is only not certified by Netflix, it is still a Google TV certified device. And it can install any of the apps thay you mentioned.

I have a Mecool KM2, bought and tested for only a few weeks for sale. Do pm if interested.

Reason for sale: I actually upgrading to Dolby Atmos system, been researching and hunting around decent Android TV Box to enable the streaming of atmos files. Ended up bought both Xiaomi Mi Box S and Mecool KM2, both brand new, and not satisfied with the playback, hence the sale. Both units are working perfectly well.

Both with box.

Hi bro, are you using Mecool KM7? Have you managed to download unifi’s playTV and iQIYI APP into KM7 and use smoothly? If yes I will proceed to buy KM7 from Shopee/Lazada. I am using Himedia Q10 Pro & X99. I can sideload above 2 apps but PlayTV cannot properly operated eg full list for live TV not appear, etc while for iQIYI, unable to login for standard member, it always hanged at sign in/login/join in page.

I think Apple TV 4K - TV Box is the worst now. It it running the most smoother interface and pretty but when stream it is not the best.

Last time my DiGi Infinite line is only run around 50 to 70 Mbps. So I though it take few seconds to run clear is normal for Netflix, Apple TV+ and etc.
Don't forget the Netflix interface at Apple TV 4K never update like others TV Box also.

Now my Maxis Fiber line is able to run at least 500 Mbps but it still sometimes take few seconds to run all clear in Apple TV 4K.

But following device is running instant clear and sharp for Netflix, Apple TV+ and etc when using Maxis Fiber line and no waiting is required.

- LG C9 OLED TV Apps.
- Samsung AU7000 TV Apps.
- Chromecast for Google TV - TV Box.

Now my Apple TV 4K only use for playback local contents only. Streaming services better use others.

Now is time check for Nvidia Shield TV Box already. biggrin.gif

My KM7 is at the office. I'll test Unifi TV tomorrow. But I can confirm that Lionsgate and VIU works.

Note that Himedia Q10 Pro is an "Android" TV Box, and this usually does not come with the needed DRM (PlayReady and Widevine) that streaming apps are using nowadays (Unifi TV and Sooka are using Widevine for example)

No brand one I bought from Sri Computer. Yep, it also has an Ethernet port, but it's only 100Mb/s. Also this no brand one was around RM80ish. D-Link rebranded this and is selling it at around RM250, so yeah, don't buy that one

The hub has Power Delivery on the first USB-C port. Plug an at least 40w power to that port, and it will provide power to the Chromecast
