M9S Android TV Box

[Beenherebefore]

Arrived today.....it wasn't expected until earliest Tuesday on free delivery so well done Amazon !!

I'm guessing Mobdro, although showing in the apps, needs to be updated as it won't load any channels.

What's the best/correct way...D/L to memory stick on computer then upload to M9S or is there a way of D/L direct to M9S ?

Yes the remote function is the same but very slow compared to moving a mouse around.

Agreed......so no improvement there then !!

Which is the reason I binned the remote. I have to remember the one I have in Spain will be used by people not familiar with this type of device. As I said previously the change of channels is not instant. they have to load. I don't want people getting impatient and messing stuff up. (Having said that... the box is not out all the time. I will reconnect it in October when I go out again and it will be used during the winter months...

So, a question guys. I have a 55 inch curved screen 4K  tv...is this going to be of use to me before I shell out ?

[MI5]

Only if you spend on one. Forget the cheap ones.

Most of the high spec boxes are for 4K...

[MI5]

They say 4k but they're not.

I've now tried Youtube Costa Rice 4K 60fps and it's as good as running it from the TV's internet connection so anything in 4K would appear to be good.

What are not as good are the TV channels which at best is on the high side between SD and HD and on the low side little better if that than SD.....but still watchable if you're desperate.

But remember it's advised that 4K really needs a fast fibre connection and I only have 10Mb copper connection.

Rice is cheap here

Would the 4k stream display on a 1080 TV?
We have reasonable (20-30Mbs) broadband. If that provides the best picture then I would just use that.
