Upgraded to 2.09 OFW
After using this box for close to 9 months, can't say that the experience was as good when I first used it

Subtitle bug still remains unfixed after numerous firmware upgrades. And, apps and system UI tend to crash (stopped responding), though for this particular issue, it could be due to box running too hot (heat dissipation isn't great), but then again, the problem occurs even within 5 minutes after booting up, but becomes more stable after the box "warms up" :S

Though, still happy with the AV quality of the box, and I like this launcher compared to MINIX's. But most likely I will opt for another brand if this box fails me within the next 1 - 2 years.

I think Q10 Pro has better heatsink/fan
I am using Q5 Pro, and it gets really hot

I have faced problem with Kodi, Astro Go, Terrarium, RSS Player etc, pretty sure it's not app specific, if it's serious enough, the whole system will just crash (system has stopped responding error)


One last thing that I'd try, get a USB fan and attach it to the box's USB port, and let it blow directly towards the box and see if this alleviate the problem laugh.gif


If this doesn't help, just get another box when this one dies on me smile.gif

Just got my Q10 pro, I would like to know what is the best way to link my PC to the box over ethernet?

I have enabled SAMBA on the box but couldn't find a way to access the HDD on the box.
