MiBox 7.0 update rolling out?

I searched and didn't find anything about this yet. Anyway, I'm one of the original beta testers who got their mi boxes directly from Xiaomi (mailed from China even) several months before they hit store shelves, and was opted into beta updates waaay back then. They closed the beta program and I'm not sure if they rolled us into the general update pool or not, so I'm not sure if this has hit general users boxes yet, or if it's just a beta thing.

Any Mi Box beta testers use Plex? If so, can you test the AC3 audio issue?

Can anybody check if the following issues are fixed in this beta?

  • HDMI CEC problems
  • Deep colors unchecked after reboot
  • Auto detect resolution detects worng resolution (I have a Samsung 4k TV and detects 720p)
  • Auto adjust refresh rate doesn't works
  • Plex AC3 problem
  • HDR

Thanks :)

I think the problem is mostly that people have high expectations of a 69 dollar device. For the price, it exceeds my expectations. If you go into it, lower what you think the device will do. It does what I want it to do. It wasn't made to replace everything. It would be nice, but that isn't realistic. Sounds like hose who are complaining either didn't do their homework or struggle with their first world problems. Me...I'm just happy with the device as it sits

Hows it running? My mibox can sometimes bog down after some multitasking i.e switching from Netflix to kodi. Do you feel any performance boost?

I'm guessing as the update has just come to you, us 'normal' lot will have a few more weeks to wait until rollout!

Don't play with my heart. The next frontpage post talks about his settings changing to Nougat style setting, so it must indeed be rolling out. Finally!

How do you join the Beta Program? I would love to get an early taste of releases

I know it won't, but it would be awesome if this finally fixed Netflix.

I have a number of the TVs that it's incompatible with, so I've had to go back to my old Nexus on those (or switch to Roku).

Does anyone else's Mi Box constantly switch out of 4k to 720?

Hi all. Is there a way we get the latest beta or the OTA zip file to update? In the case you have sideloaded Nougat are you entitled to receive OTA updates? Thank you, John

Is Assistant included? If I recall Google said that was coming to the MiBox...

work out those bugs fast so the final can get released before end of march.

if beta apk is release I won't touch it. I can't have my box's down a single day or my kids will kill me.

Major fail....ES Explorer is now in landscape..., but I really didn't say that

Yet it only has the February security patch..? I've already got March on my phone.
