Hi guys, I recently bought a Xiaomi Mi Box S and I just don't know which is the best way to turn off it. I mean, is it enough just to use the remote control or should I also disconnect the power cable?

I know it is a newbie question, but this is my first android box.

SmartTubeNext shows two ways to create a new playlist, that I'm aware of. 1) ""Add this video to new playlist" by long-pressing on a video (before it plays) and 2) "Create playlist" by long-pressing on the Playlists section in SmartTubeNext's main menu. Neither of these methods work.

To confirm, this is a known issue? Is it a current limitation of the YouTube API? If so, why is the option shown?

So, I have a MECOOL KM2 and I really like it

Though now I have an odd bug

Every app on my home screen and app drawer can no longer be launched with a single press, it instead opens up a menu as if i had long pressed it, then i would need to press open to launch said app

If i try to rearrange the apps, there is now a bar at the bottom showing where i can go but I can no longer move apps up/down/left/right with the arrow buttons on my remote, pressing the middle button just moves it up and down until it reaches the top and the back down.

Does anyone know why this is happening? Only thing of note would be me trying out Mouse Toggle, but I have uninstalled the app already I also tried rebooting the box, clearing the cache of the android tv home screen app

Looking for any Android TV Browser that will support game controllers like the XBOX Series X/S controller so that I can do xCloud.

Edit: Using Onn UHD box from Walmart

I’ve tried everything from Factory reset, Uninstalling app, Clearing App date, everything. nothings working. Any help is appreciated.

Hello, today I received the following firmware update:

TPM211EA_R.101.000.178.206

Anyone know what they change? Do they produce a changelog..?

Thanks

You can't change font, color, transperacy or any subtitle appearancy settings on Disney plus, but I just noticed a bug. If you install "Just player" from play store and change subtitles settings in Just player, same settings will apply to Disney plus.

​

In Just player long press subtitles button or settings button to find subtitles settings.

​

Watching HDR content on OLED in dark room without 50% transperacy for subtitles is eye burning torture

my ONN 4k TV Box that says permission setting and underneath that it says Tap 'Allow access to USB drive' button on the next screen. But when I tap ok, a little box pops us and says Application not found then the Same screen as the 1st one pops up. Anyone know what I need to do or what application it is talking about? I have Developers options turned on if it matters. I do use a USB stick Thanks

For 20 dollars you get a 4k streaming device but the first one I got had so much problems with HDMI flickering and overheating to the point of rebooting. I wanted to ask, have any of you encountered these issues before? If so, did you make a return?

I currently have a s905x3 box that a got a 2-3 years ago. I dont really watch tv a ton, but I have a plex server and ive signed up for shares in the past, many of which offered x265 10bit videos. My device can currently decode and play 4k x265 videos, but anytime a video says 8-bit or 10-bit, my device fails to decode and play the video completely. Doesnt matter if Plex, Emby, or Jellyfin. I'm assuming its too much data to decode? But I really have no idea. Im looking for the cheapest android device that can decode these files themselves without having to decode on my PC and cast to the device.

Im in the US if that even matters, as most the cheaper boxes are all chinese anyway.

Edit: I cant change the title. But im specifically looking for a box that can decode 4k x265 10-bit videos files.

So my TV is connected to LAN but only getting 30-50 out of 300 Mbps. It also gets the same bandwidth through WiFi.

I wanna mention that out of all devices connected to LAN the TV is the only one not getting all the 300 Mbps. Does anyone know what might be the reason?

Just bought an android tv and it’s amazing but I’m having one issue. When I’m connected to YouTube via my phone I can’t use the remote to pause etc. I can only lower the volume and that’s it.

Hi, I recently bought T95 Android Box from xGody it's the 4GB Ram and 128GB storage model but it keeps crashing and I'm not sure whether it's because of the launcher it came pre-loaded with or if it's the issue within the Android Box if anyone had this Android Box before can you let me know if yours was working fine or whether you needed to do something to keep it from crashing.

Hi Everyone,

I'm looking for some sort of digital signage tool that would allow me to display nicely a dashboard on my AndroidTV every morning. Basically I would like an app that would allow me to display on the same screen the local weather forecast, maybe my meetings of the day, a youtube stream of the morning show that I'm listening to on the radio so I can see the interviewees, a couple of news from a RSS feed…

I've looked into it a few times but never found what I was actually looking for, maybe because I can't formulate the proper keywords. The closest I got was with "play signage" app but I did not manage to get something nice and tidy, the objective is not to irritate me first thing in the morning with an ugly design haha.

I'm not concerned about the automation part as my home automation system can control my TV. It's more about the dashboard app itself. If the app is not able to self execute based on a schedule, it should not be a problem.

If any of you knows of this kind of application I'm open to suggestions.

Thanks in advance!

The fewer bells and whistles the better. It just has to be able to play back 4K 60fps video from anywhere, like YouTube or from file storage, for as little cost as possible. I'm in Europe so I cannot acquire US specialty products like e.g. Walmart's own brands.

Hi,

After using my shield for 6-12 months, it keeps rebooting at certain times. Amazon is giving me a refund. What box should i buy now?

I primarily use it for iptv and streaming 4k movies from the nas. Also watching netflix, hbo max and prime video

Thanks
