Tried AstroGo and HyppTV play (tablet) in Minix U1, both works nicely.
Just wanna check, what app do you all use for BD/BR remux file or even 4k?
I tried mx player and media player in U1, both does not run smoothly.

you will be able to find Hypp TV play Tablet and phone version in playstore.
While AstroGo, you will have to sideload APK into U1, i download via Chrome from APKPURE in U1 and install directly with setting change to unknown source enable.

Still thinking what is the good offline player...
As i used to play from laptop Media player classic, i will be able to see the audio stream quality/channels.

Wanna check with Minix U1 user, i tried to run 4k remux file from enternal HDD.

XBMC, occasionally buffering, like every 20min.
KODI krypton, for 2 hours show, stuck once.

May I know if there is anyway to have smooth playback of 4k remux file?

Besides, i got mx player installed, but then i could not click on the menu options like, change subtitle during playback, mouse cursor does not click on the 2nd layer of menu.
Anyone face this?

Decent USB 3.0 ext drive? I've got no issues on mine. See here and here.. I use a Samsung Fit USB 3.0 drive or WD MyBook drive + a tweaked advancedsettings.xml file to increase cache size to about 7xxMB (RAM). Both are fast drives and can serve files at max even though the the U1 only has 2.0 ports.

MX Player + Minix Neo A2 Lite Airmouse.. Can simulate screen touches.. no problem with subs or menu clicking. What remote are you using? if stock IR remote, then that's limiting.. need to get a better remote.

I am using Seagate Backup plus 4TB (2.5"), i tries to increase XBMC cache file size according to some online blog about 1/3 of the free RAM in U1, I will try to increase it to 7xxMB (RAM) like you did. See how it perform tonight.

I use logitech wireless mouse on U1, I bought from Beffen promo and come without airmouse.
maybe I should try airmouse... think whether Mele F10pro or Minix A3.

Yep, try increasing cache size. I also tweaked a few AV parameters too, to fit my requirements. Just be careful, don't overdo it as Kodi prioritizes parameters in the advancedsettings.xml file.
Based on the build quality and performance of the Neo A2 Lite, I strongly suggest that you get the A3 Airmouse. Zero compatible issues.


Thanks voncrane, I have not change it yet, last night it runs smooth on XBMC, my cache setting is about 5XXmb now. additional question, will Minix airmouse compatible with Himedia product?

I ordered Minix U1 on Lazada this morning from Dobest and somehow the seller honors it and now preparing for shipment. Just realize the U1 are not support Netflix 4K. So gonna let it go when receiving the item. Let me know who interested to buy it from me.

namia if you can part with the A2 lite airmouse, let me know.

actually air mouse is not tat neccasary right? wireless mouse is pretty sufficient already isnt it?

Ray Leee, I am using logitech wireless mouse, and it is working fine.
left click is a "enter"/touch action, while right click is a back action in Minix U1.

the only fallback now is MX player, i could not browse to the 2nd layer of options for switching of subtitle/audio channel.

Hi All, Minix U1 have 3 USB ports, i try to have a wireless mouse USB dongle and plug in 2 Seagate 2.5" external HDD. however, looks like the power supplied to 2 2.5" USB HDD is not enough and device keep disappear.

Is it that U1 could not support 2 ext HDD at the same time?
Thank you.

Hi all, I have an Minix U1 device, I try to install Netflix APK and it only able to achieve 480p. As read from this forum, another version of APK is needed to achieve full HD on non-sanctioned device.

Could someone please share it?

Netflix HD

Minix U1 is still on Android 5, lollipop. I am not sure if there is ATV for it.

That's the max res cuz it's a non-certifed device. I just use the official Netflix app on the Smart TV.. Much preferred. Neo U1 for Kodi and other stuffs.
Go read page one and last couple pages first.. Come back when you are less of a noob and understand the core facts..
Won't work..

Ok then, luckily my Sony TV W800B have built in Netflix app, which is a surprise for such an old TV.
