My remote isn't working on some of the prompt screens, for example I can't allow a connection when I have navigated to the address on my network. I can toggle through some settings though, so the remote is working on some screens. I'm also having the same with my android tv remote app.
The goal is to transfer files to the mi box without setting up ftp (I don't like the idea of recording my computer login details on the mi box). Anyone been successful in doing this through airdroid or similar? At the moment I am using google drive, but the speeds are terrible.
I think File Commander in the play store has a webdav server option that lets you move files over an http server
Edit: Or do you mean like a permanent mount?
