Xiaomi TV - What filesystems are supported via USB storage? + question about audio passthrough

by rogerramjetz

Hi all,

I currently have an old crappy media PC running Linux + Kodi etc. It's a pain in the butt with constant problems and I want to ditch it for the Xiaomi TV Box. I would prefer the Nvidia Shield, but in Australia, it's extremely expensive.

I have a few TB of movies all stored on ext4. Is it possible to mount that on the Xiaomi box?

Do I have to do anything special to mount it?

Also, quite a few of my movies are over 30GB (Dolby True HD 7.1 | Atmos etc) and I was wondering if it's possible to do passthrough/bitstream via HDMI so my receiver can decode the stream.

Thanks in advance

Plex?

It works with NTFS and FAT32. I could not get exFAT to work at all. So in your case that would leave NTFS.

You should have no problem with passthrough.
