Hi, I was looking for an overlay for my Mi box I just want to know the network usage, cpu usage and temperature

I wish when Netflix asked you if you are still watching you could just say "Yes" instead of looking around for the remote to press ok. Could work in tandem with Google Assistant and/or Google home.

Hey,

My MiBox is almost useless after the Oreo update, even with the beta update installed the wifi still getting disconnected.

What would be recommened to buy instead of the MiBox that's in the same price range more or less.

I know people will say Nvidia Shield, but for my opinion I think it's too pricey for something like Android TV.

Any other suggestions?

Hello,

​

I'm experiencing a really strange bug : some of my apps are working well (like Netflix, Plex, Google Play Films, Youtube) and some others are totally broken and show "Connection error" messages :

- Prime Video : only show texts (but connection to my account works), error message when trying to stream a movie

- FilmStruck Intl : can't even connect (infinite connection icon)

- Twitch : everything works till I try to connect any stream and it drop a "Stream Ended" message

- ARTE : can't even connect (infinite connection icon)

​

TV : Sony Bravia KD43XE8096

Internet : Wired @ 200kbps, working perfectly with any other device

​

It happens for 1 or 2 days now.

Does anyone else have this issue and figured-out how to fix it ?

​

Thank you for helping

I hate the black background on the closed captions on the default app. Is there a way to remove that? I know you can bypass that by using third party players, but I'd like to know if there's a way to change it on the default app. If there is a good third-party app, please recommend it.

TV: Sony X7500F (AndroidTV)

I recently upgraded to a Sony Bravia Android TV from a traditional 'stupid' TV. One thing I find odd is that it takes a long time to boot up the TV (i.e. slow Android animation) before I can use it.

​

This makes me wonder if switching the power off on the socket is the right way to off my Android TV, as this is akin to taking out the battery on my Android phone. Should I have just used to remote control 'power off' instead of the socket? Am I causing additional 'damage' to the TV by just abruptly switching it off with the socket?

​

I hope this question doesn't sound too dumb. It just baffles me. Would appreciate some advise.

Prior to the update, I was told that PIP wasn't supported and after the update, I should be fine. Unfortunately, that's not the case.

I have a baby monitor app that I like to keep up in the top corner while watching TV or multitasking on the app but it's not working. Works on my firestick..just not the MiBox

In oreo on mobile when u go into settings>network there is a option to configure ur vpn, is there anyway to access this in oreo on mi box? The vpn i use is windscribe and unfortunately there androidtv app does not have a killswitch option in settings on there app, but u are able to make this possible when u navigate through to system settings on mobile but unfortunately i cant find id this is possible on tv..

I have any Anker one but it doesn't wanna connect at all, fails when it asks me to enter a few digits.

I previously had several categories of videos to jump between accessed through the slide out side menu - like music, food, and technology. Now the menu contains fewer categories (technology got the ax). I've looked for an option to edit these w/o luck. Any ideas of how to work around this?

i love how one year (and four updates) later the what's new still says 'first release of youtube kids on tv'

​

i hesitate to see if that also means it's safe to update the main 'youtube for android tv' app now which had the same crash problems since the big redesign.

What is the cheapest true Android TV device on the market? Is it the Mi Box?

Unrelated: Why does the title on this sub auto capitalize?

So many issues since Oreo it's not even funny. Now YouTube cause it to crash and boot loop. I've done the factory reset a couple times with nothing changing. Is there something less expensive than the Shield(hearing that Oreo broke some stuff there too) but better than the Mibox? Its gotten bad enough that I might try to put lineage on my old NP and run that for a while....
