Hi -

About 3-4 days ago began having a problem with my Xiaomi Mi box. All Apps (Plex, Youtube, Kodi) except for Netflix are producing no audio. Video playback is fine (no errors) but no sound at all.

However, Netflix app is working great - audio and video are perfect and do not require any changes to amp or tv config to get it to work.

Any recent changes to Xiaomi Mi box updates that would cause this? Any changes to Netflix app that is somehow preventing other apps from outputting audio (I know, seems unlikely)

I've rebooted Mi box many times but no change in behaviour.

Any help would be appreciated!

​

Thanks,

Hi there all,

I have a Mi Box 3 (i belive) and I was using for aprox. 1 year. Now I tried connecting an USB hub and it didnt even powered on altough it was working when I tested when got it a year ago. When I connect a usb to ethernet adaptor, it lights up, when I use a different USB Hub its lights up as well but if I try a usb drive or Logitech F710 wireless controller its not detecting it.

I tried disable USB debuging (it was disabled already) And I tried factory reset (2 times)

Any ideas, any help?

Thanks in advance, Have a good day!

I understand from the other thread that JBL Link Bar Chromecast built-in app was updated recently to fix/introduce the audio group sync.

For the people who received the update, could you please provide the version of Chromecast built-in app apk?

Also, could you please share the apk that you have on JBL Link Bar? I would like to check if it works on Shield TV.

I tried to get the apk from the other thread but my comments were hidden under some good information.

Hey everyone,

I have an "N8 Plus" Android TV Box.

I downloaded epsxe from the Play store and need a controller that will work.

I have been trying for hours to use a dualshock 3 and 4 only to find out it seems to be impossible.

Does anyone know a controller I can buy that will work with the N8 Plus and the epsxe emulator?

Thanks!

It's a new bug, which is odd, I didn't notice there being an update or anything.

In the past, you could use the builtin chromecast as a chromeccast. But now, if you do that, the chromecast background will stay visible. You can hear the video and everything, but the video won't appear unless you hit the home button in the mibox remote.

This really kills the strongest point of android TV for me. That not only you can run any android app but that it can still function like a chromecast when you just want to play video from your phone :/

Hi.

Would love some help - Is there any way to make the AndroidTV os autostart an app when launched ?

Would love to have my TV autostart the Spotify app in order for Spotify connect on the TV to be available as a streaming target.

Any ideas.

Should be feasible with a CLI ?

Is it possible to convert the OS of Leelbox MXQ mini to anything else, like Arch Linux ARM?

Where do you find the architecture for TCL Android 9?

Can't find it anywhere.

Hey does anyone know is there a way to determine if apps are up to date on the new play store interface or a way to manually download updates? I miss the days of manual updates.

Samsung TV seems to lack certain buttons on the remote.

1. If I regularly switch from Digital TV to Mi Box, do I have to always press Home button>Navigate several icons to select Source>Choose Mi box, or is there a shortcut on the remote that works similarly to Input button found on many other TVs remote?
2. Do all buttons like Home/Apps works to control the Mi Box or the Home button opens the Samsung menu instead?

So the app thinks it's running on a phone?

I'm trying to stream the Disney+, Amazon Prime, Hulu and Netflix apps with VyprVPN set to USA. I have a non-smart TV with USB and HDMI ports, and a Chromecast and Amazon Fire. I tried mirroring my screen via the Chromecast and Fire cast and mirroring functions but it's not working (is this because of the VPN??) I also tried a cord from the charging port (USB C) on my Honor 7 phone to the HDMI on the TV, but the TV screen is just black. Would love some advice!

Sorry if I missed it but is this now supported or am I experiencing some sort of glitch? I rebooted my shield today and when it came back on everything was small. I decided to switch the resolution to 1080 and everything looked normal. Flipped back to 4k and its small again and I am able to see many more apps and rows which to me is what the UI would look like in 4k. I tried searching for news about it but I just found older posts about how it isn't natively supported yet.

Hi everybody. I have a Philips 55PUS7363/12 that somehow completely forgets the internet when I turn it off overnight. I have tried WiFi with password, WiFi with WPS and an Ethernet cable, they all have the same issue. I have to restart my router everyday, and it's getting super annoying. I have multiple smart devices hooked up to the internet all the time. Philips hue, Sonos speakers, Roomba, Chromecast and Google home, but my TV is the only thing that loses connection after its been turned off for a couple hours. Does anyone have any solutions?

So, I recently completed my home theater setup and I found out that while my receiver (Onkyo TX-NR686) does indeed support Dolby Atmos and I have set up the height speakers for it, my TV does not have atmos passthrough. I did some research and found out that an Android TV Box would be my next best solution. As much as I wish I could get the Nvidia Shield, it's not within my budget but the Xiaomi Mi Box is though I'm not sure whether I should get the 2016 Mi Box 3 or the 2018 Mi Box S. I mainly intend to use it to play TrueHD/Atmos movies from my external hard drive but I may stream on it every once in a while.

Hello,

using Apple TV 4 for about 2 years. Now I want to buy another box to the another TV.

Thinking about android box but don't know which is really good.

Will use it only for watching movies/series from Synology NAS. Everything is Full HD or 4K.
And my ISP has android app for TV, so will use it too (maybe). Don't want settopbox.

I'm thinking about Xiaomi Mi TV Box S but there is no ethernet and I'm affraid 4K movies will not play fine without problems because of wifi.

Read about nVidia Shield (latest) but I think it's not for me. I'm not gamer :)

Wifi: have 2x Unifi AP AC Pro so this is ok.

Thank you for recommendations.

I received my Philips 65OLED804 yesterday. It has Android TV (I updated it to the latest version) and I have found a setting that said "Switch on with Chromecast" that allows the TV to be switched on from a Chromecast app on my phone. But when I tell my Google Home to turn on the tv it just registers the command and does nothing. When I ask to play a show from Netflix on the tv it says that it's going to play and right after that it says that Google Home doesn't support Android TV yet. Is there anything I can setup to make it more compatible with Google Home?

Hey guys,

I've been having trouble casting on my Nvidia shield 2019 and I finally found a solution.

What I had to do was uninstall and reinstall the Chromecast built-in app from the Google play store and that resolved the issue.

I figured this out after having no success whith clearing the Chromecast cache, restarting my router, and restarting my Nvidia shield.

Hi. I have a Sony smart TV that does not have a browser, Gmail access, etc. I was reading up and came into a conclusion that buying an Android TV device would be a good bet. Something under $100 that I could plug into hdmi port and perhaps use a wireless keyboard and mouse to browse around. Any thoughts?
