A new Mibox update released for everybody

by vnenov

My Mibox has just updated to build OPR6.170623.013.2550.

They have finally fixed the refresh rate switching. It was not even in the update notes, but I have tested in Plex and Kodi. FINALLY!!!

The notes also mentioned a wifi fix, wake up fix, Netflix artifacts fix and BT remote fix.

Enjoy! It was a long wait πŸ˜€

I've held onto two of them in a box for 3 years waiting for refresh rate switch and sold them 3 days ago fml

Is this finally the remote/wake up fix?

Past History with updates here has made me cynical , I'll give it a few days to bed in and it be shown the fixes actually working with no new issues before I get excited by this

Auto refresh switching in kodi finally working!

Hyedwtditpm

Most important bugs seems to be fixed, only annoying one remaining maybe the youtube freeze bug. Is it solved with this update?

hrvstr

Waiting for you guys to test this update πŸ˜‚ mi box updates usually screw up more than they fix...

DD+ is still broken in Netflix for me. Tbh it's skipping worse than ever.

UnboxOdyssey

Auto framerate is finally working on Kodi and youtube.

borekon

where can i find the changelog or release notes?

furion23

Did it fix the white pixel at the upper left corner of the screen? Got this and only happens while connected to the mibox

How long did it take? mine looks like it hanging on installation progress bar, hasn't moved for last 10minutes

Finally the refresh rate switching works.

A product that I purchased over two years ago starts only today to work as it always should have done... great job chinese guys.

My first and last Xiaomi product.

I was having a wifi connection issue which forced me to stop using the Mi Box. It wouldn't connect to my secondary router, hardwired to the main router, when router 2 was in AP (access point mode). Meaning it couldn't stream my TV tuner or Plex collection.

​

This seems to have fixed that issue! It now connects, holy crap, this thing is useable agin!

Thanks for sharing. Just checked and an update was waiting for me.

Omg finally

shreyasfifa4

Can anyone tell me more about the refresh rate issue? What exactly is the problem?

need2grow10

Did they take away HD audio (dts-hd, true-hd, etc)?

arghness

I haven't had the chance to update yet -- I guess it hasn't fixed DD+, as it's not mentioned?

mhunterchump

My lord I hope the wifi and wake up fix works. So annoying these two issues have been.

Bodycount9

I never had issues with waking up the box from sleep. Updated one box late last night. My other box will be updated when I get home from work.

Only issues I have are the DD+ to DD conversion and AAC 5.1 on all channels. I'm getting tired of converting all my movies to AC3 just so I hear sound.

Popimon

Does this fixes 5Ghz wifi connection?

g8orballboy

Is this not for the S? I'm about to toss this thing out of a window if it freezes on wakeup again .. I need that fixed!!!

Lincolns_Revenge

I'm assuming there's still no multichannel audio for users who have a optical audio connection in the link between their TV and receiver?.

It's weird that the Nougat versions of the Mi Box firmware had no issues doing passthrough of DTS or Dolby Digital in that sort of setup.

I do remember something about the support never being official or something to do with license fees, but it also worked flawlessly for me in early Mi Box firmwares.

I'd updated to 2550 when it first appeared, but I'm seeing another update now. Is anyone getting this?

manutdotcom

Haha the only wifi fix which xiaomi implemented was to hide the wifi disconnected pop up

reketekuiti

Please, i used the RGB 8 bits mode to avoid "Pink/green" screen on my Sony TV, but with this update now doesnt works , is there any place where i can tell to Xiaomi or somebody can help me to resolve this? Thanks in advance

BlackSER

Thank you for this. Just updated my 2016 mi box and so far so good. I don't have alot of apps just the essentials. Hopefully this helps the sleep remote bluetooth issue.

Looks like I can't use voice search on YouTube after the update. Anybody else having this problem? Sucks to type with the remote.

bcorrea

youtube app seems broken to me... its not 12 hours of update and already had to restart the box twice, cause was erroring out all videos :/ the rest of the fixes might take longer to test...

​

AND now just turning it off and the tv off and coming back to it 20 minutes later is sufficient to make the input signal go crazy and have to restart it, so this update broke my box even further... :/

b_millz96

Ok so I hope this isn’t a stupid question, but I updated my Mibox and wanted to know if I had to enable the adjust display refresh rate setting in kodi or just leave it to off and the box itself does it?

badtzo

wake up fix is not working :/ I still need to unplug the box.

sotirisbos

Any ideas if the update fixes the exoplayer deinterlacing issues?

mrowa

Hey guys, do you know if external HDDs with NTFS work with new updates? I remember that they broke it in early android 8 update version.

Mystic_Decay

Can anyone explain me if this is an official public release or part of a Beta release? And where can I update manually.

gguy2000

WiFi still not connecting!

yoavoffek_

I'm on mi box 4, still didn't get the update...

watchyirc

Maybe fixed but still junk

Don't forget to perform full system reset so you have the proper baseline for new code to fully take effect.
