Thanks for the info. I am very sure Kodi does not play at 4K. Even Netflix 4K doesn’t seem to be playing at 4K. Only YouTube could be playing at 4K based on the stats and quality of stream (again not entirely sure though owning this Sharp for years)

So, One more thing I would like to confirm. Sharp TV has an Android running at 1080p but does this limit other apps in video resolution?

4K Media box that I use has android running in 4K gui with kodi also in 4K gui and video playback.

I don’t think I can press O using the TV. I go to the Video Settings (one of the icons in bottom right of Kodi during playback) and do video calibration. It will show 1920x1080. So like you said it could be Kodi detecting Android in 1080p thus limiting the resolution or it could be the TV (Android) limiting all apps to 1080p.

It would be the best if these Android TV can support any decent 4K HDR players (preferably Kodi etc) natively rather than still having to buy another media box.
Back to al1x model, I found serious flaw whereby apps are always set to run in background and never being killed. Example, exiting SPMC will give u a black screen until you manually restart the TV using Android software (Settings, About, Restart). That’s really inconvenient! Hanged apps will remain in their state until you restart using Android settings not the remote control.

Any al1x owner can chip in some advice? Looks like my friend has to buy another 4K media box for an “advanced” TV

Ok as far as for the al1x is concerned, I think Kodi (installed on TV) is indeed playing in 4K and HDR mode although gui in 1080p as the option for TV HDR Gamma Adjustment is available when playing 4K HDR files using Kodi.

Though I didn't get 6800X but still happy to get a 4K TV. Had a test with PS4 Pro at 4K HDR. Its really sharp and smooth framerate.
Maybe later I will get another Sharp TV for other room. I still prefer 60 inch model. 

Anyone using Android box? I am surprise my box can work in 4K 30fps HDR mode. Only manage to test 1080P video streams for now but it looks rather decent.

Yea my android box is old generation which I bought 2 years back. That is why I am surprised it can use 4K hdr. 

After using my UA6800X intensely for about a week, i think i ran into almost similar problem. But i think this has more to do with the app though.

Using this apk for MyPadTV. Sometimes, after watching some episodes, it will break and stop, attempt to replay the same episode will be met with a blank black screen. However, you can still go back to Home by pressing the "Home" button, however, if i want to watch back the same episdoe earliar, i will need to restart it.

Another issue encountered is auto restart, not sure what causes this, but i suspect it could be the KeepSolid VPN i am using causing it. I remember when i didn't turn it on, it did't auto restart, need to monitor some more to be sure.

Another thing, i am trying to play my medias from my NAS. Using Kodi to access it, it can see the NAS, but loading directory seems to be freaking slow. Is there any better apps to view the photos and videos in my NAS?

What brand/model ah? Maybe itchy handed to get one to play play. LOL.

Ic. Thks. I am using SMB as well, will test out the ES Explorer next, I have both wired and AC connections, i think my AC connections is just as fast as a 100Mbit wired. I stream mostly on AC nowadays, i will test it out later with both to see if there is any difference, over the weekend.

Think will get an Android box soon before Gobind Singh haramkan. 

I only have 1 issue, which is sometimes it auto-restart, not sure if the apps are causing it or it happens after prolonged usage like > 3hours? Anyone have experienced this?

One time is while watching using the RSS Player app. Another time i cant remember, maybe its while using browser.

BTW is it possible to mirror from Laptop to TV by wifi?

No wonder couldn't find any since I browsed from page 1 😉. Thanks for the info.

Actually I gave up after page 5, too many pages to browse 😝

Imo, not worth to get extended warranty for cheap TV. Most TV unlikely to break within 5 years. If your TV is above 5K maybe cna consider buy extended warranty. RM 1.8k TV no point buy extended warranty.

Should i buy the newer version 4TC50AL1X since now the price difference is only rm200 compare to the LC50UA6800X? (saw the price difference in LAZADA).

4TC50AL1X is newer version launched last year, and has direct LED lighting for 50" size. Suppose the screen should be brighter? I'm assuming the other features not much differ apart for the HDMI and USB connectors they relocate some to the TV side for convenient sake.

Also I saw the Petronas voucher redemption dateline on 30-Apr, is it true ? Like that has to buy before end of this month!

Ok, I need advice here.

I used to own an LG TV, so screen sharing from my Windows 10 laptop to the TV was pretty much foolproof, and dead easy. Now with my new 4TC60AL1X Android TV, it's not so easy. I'm pretty much stuck. Not talking about casting, I want to use my TV wirelessly as an external display.

Any tips please?

Hmm, I think I tried that, it only seemed to mirror the browser. Lemme try it again.

In terms of sound bar setup what's your experience with this. Does it decode dolby atmos as well?

Nope. There is no Dolby Atmos here. You can always buy an Android box with the functions that you want, then passthrought the Dolby Atmos from your box->Soundbar->TV

Seems new software....30800_20181205 => 31000_20190326.

Eh. I was not looking for Android box lah. haha.

I have more serious problem of Centre Speaker now. Still haven't decided if wanna buy soundbar or buy shelf from ikea and drill holes and stick Centre speaker to wall. Still thinking YAS-108...many good reviews, can cucuk my existing subwoofer and  looks sexy!. But if i can't sell my current setup, i will be stuck with even more speakers in my living room....

If i get the YAS-108 soundbar, i will use the YAS-108 soundbar for movies from the TV (Netflix mainly), while maintaining the HT system for music and video games. But this is not ideal at all.....ultimately my target is 1 soundbar + 1 woofer. No more freaking speakers....(i also have 2 subwoofers and 1 guitar amp in the living room...not counting other small satellites for PC and other stuff..).
