Dunno if this will help.... check...

Settings... display.. hdr to sdr, sdr to hdr both OFF.

screen resolutiom to auto...will be 2160p 60hz for 4k tv.

Color depth ON, color space 420.

For local playback, kodi probably give best results.

The PQ of TX3 is certainly not as good compared to costlier boxes.

But is acceptable. Sharpness a little lacking but not pixelated for astrogo hd channels.

Settings... display.. hdr to sdr, sdr to hdr both OFF - why we need to do this and is it a must on TV boxes?

it's a setting, not a must.

if u turn on hdr->sdr, hdr stream will lose hdr effect, no good.
if u turn on sdr->hdr, sdr (most common) streams will get a lousy "upscale", looks bad.

still, u can try and see how diff streams come out on your TV with diff settings.

Cheap simple optical wireless mouse can do.

Yr previous questions... tx3 has hdmi, power, rj45, 2xusb.... no av or optical or audio out.
Careful, some sellers list incorrect specs.

What tv r u using?

Your problem may be due to just poor internet speed.

Check also yr hdmi connection, cable....

To shutdown I think better proper way i.e long press power button on remote you'll see small pop up on screen where you can select shutdown/restart/screenshot.

Or you can set power button to shutdown on single click, there is a setting on that on settings menu (powerkey definition).

if it happens only to one app n not the others, it usually means something not right with that app.

try uninstalling it totally, reinstall this one:

I have same device as yours. Weird, never see hdr pop-up.

Check settings-droid settings-powerkey definition .. you can select shutdown for one click press on remote to shutdown the device.

this is weird.

unplug all cables, reconnect and try again.

it may be some CEC issue.

Shutdown at powerkey definition is for select an action for power button on remote when you single click it, not that shutdown at powerkey definition to shutdown the device

In settings, when select device settings-about-restart .. here you can select full menu to restart or shutdown.

yr troubles , i think, are due to yr assumptuon that yr mx3 remote can do same as orig remote.

NO... other than orig remote, any other remote will NOT be able to control ON/OFF, shutdown.

this applies to ALL boxes... unless u have the expertise to rekey, remap, reprogram some other remote control.
