Can I seek some advice as to what I should do. I got a Mi Box S, but updated the firmware from 8 to 9 recently. That effectively loss the ability to passthrough audio info for DTS HD, ATmos etc..

It takes a bit of a work to downgrade the firmware. I will need some help to do so if possible.

But Is it better for me to just get another TV box? Here's my requirement:

1. Kodi that passthrough full audio for Atmos, or anything that the file comes with.
2. Usual android TV services eg youtube, youtube music, I am not Yet into netflix or Iqiyi etc.
3. 4K capable, ideally for netflix etc as well just in case.

Thats about it.



If not ....

Service needed: ---- Mi Box S - Firmware downgrade

Just a message to ask if there is any sifu here can help on downgrading the current firmware from version 9 to 8?

I don't mind paying service fee if anyone can help to do so. Do message me for details, thank you.


Thank you all for kind advice.

Thanks for your recommendation. Will look into the features for short listing.

Thanks for sharing. I did come across some method, but this one seems easy enough. See if I can try it.

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.

Curious Question:

Can we use TV Box to install facebook messenger to do video call ? Obviously that means we need to connect a webcam and Mic to its USB port. Effectively make the TV box as tool to do video communication.

Is there any site I can confirm this fact?
