using kodi is fine.

in case u r using kodi quasar...

can't set path to ext hdd although it detects it.

so, using quasar is restricted to just internal storage... i estimate about 7gb available unless u have tons of other things inside the android.

7gb is quite ok for most videos.


this limitation, i believe, is coming from androidtv, reported also in nvidia shieldtv and mibox 3 or s which also uses androidtv.

it does not apply to other good android boxes... can do 20, 30, 40gb files.

hi, is anyone know, can this TV use with a normal remote which can get from after market.

the reason why, is the remote too big for my parents, and they do not use smart tv features at all. so thinking getting them a ordinary third party remote to use.

im using a third party bluetooth controller with mouse and full keyboard. But however, i need to use the original remote to on the tv 1st, as the third party doesnt has the power on button. that is the only downside.

Avfan, do you use netflix? I am asking because in my tv native app, some of the netflix shows like A Series of Unfortunate Event, Daredevil and some other only tagged as HDR, where as those shows are tagged as 4k UHD if access from Mibox androidtv. Other series like Breaking Bad is 4k UHD in both the TV native and Mibox. I am using lc6800 also by the way, the 45inch model.

i am not using 4k package... so, can't be sure.

but... i think "hdr" is a higher one which is 4k but has that color and depth range whereas "uhd 4k" is base 4k, sdr.

i am surprised mibox does not show hdr for same show...?

Hey.. Yup, it can be confusing but don't be. Most people confuse HDR as resolution dependent, but it's not. It's just a form of additional color contrast and only those with displays capable of tapping into it will merit from such. Now for Netflix's sake, HDR titles do have 4K too.. So it's 4K+HDR, just Netflix omits it, cuz it's supposed to be generally expected and understood. When the title just says 4K UHD, then it's just that.. 4K UHD without HDR or as AVFAN put it "SDR".. Standard Dynamic Range.

To put it simply, HDR is definitely 4K, while 4K is not necessarily HDR.

Wait, did I confuse you?

Err... I think in netflix, the 4k UHD tagged shows is definiteltly with hdr, while hdr tagged shows may be in hd only with hdr, at least I can see the hdr tagged shows are less sharper compare to playing with mibox where the same shows are tagged as 4k uhd.

Edit: nevermind, i think both u n voncrane are correct. Mibix is the crappier ones haha

Before your edit, FHD comes with HDR?

Hence what I concluded earlier.

Streaming from native tv, although i notice the hdr effect, the video seems to be less sharper, hence why i mistakenly assumed that it is in fhd lol. I may need to let the video run a bit longer to see if it makes any difference.

Yep.. Let it play a bit. it depends on the networking conditions & the device. Netflix ramps up res as it goes. Their system is built like that. Doesn't immediately start at full 4k UHD. This makes some sense as mostly, beginnings are either recaps or intro. By the time it gets to the main story, it would have reached full res and buffer filled too. On the other hand, Netflix's playback is nice and all. It's still compressed video for streaming purposes and as such, is not directly comparable to playing the proper Blu-ray content. Blu-ray's PQ & AQ remains superior. So if you are used to that, I can see how you'd think Netflix's is less sharp.

i hv only hd for netflix.
still, i wud say netflix PQ is actually not that good.
can tell from the displayed bit rates... for hd... 2.8, 4.2, 6.8 mbps - small files.
which is why i prefer to watch vod on quasar or DL separately.

the tv at rm2-3k is a decent but not higher performance tv.
best results come from great source+great player+great display.
tv's netflix or mibox will produce average results.
the tv can do better if u play full bluray 1080p or 4k with a better player, for PQ and AQ.
for 4k hdr, u can try to play around with the diff settings... movie, dynamic... backlit, contrast, sharpness... color temp, etc.
lastly, there is currently no common standard for hdr... so, u may find some 4khdr videos come out better than others.
inherently, 4khdr videos appear to be "dark", and that's where using a different mode from standard is probably better.

From quick google, mibox supposedly support netflix hdr, one guy with same issue solved it by changing the hdmi port setting to auto from his previous setting which was gaming mode. Our tv does not have auto setting i guess? I tried other mode (dynamic etc), still no hdr. I guess my mibox is just crap, or could still be user problem haha..

Anyway u guys know how to set the tv androidtv home as the default screen after switch on?
