BaSeDG0DSA1NT Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Sorry back again. I mentioned previously my box seems to only run smoothly when running SD and runs poorly when 1080 or HD. I have checked all my TV settings and Interned provider but it seems to be an issue or setup with the box. Anything I can try or do, any suggestions? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinkle Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 What model of box do you have mate? I had similar problems with my original box as the RAM and processor were smaller but since i upgrade my box, its been terrific 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had similar problems with my original box as the RAM and processor were smaller but since i upgrade my box, its been terrific I am not entriely sure bud. The box itself has MX on the top and when I load it up at has MBOX. Does that mean anything or is that something I can check when the box is on, in the settings? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinkle Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I think thats the one i had originally! Plays anything from 480p without stuttering but anything after that is a struggle. It has a dual core processor and 1gb of Ram whereas my new box has double the power on both 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twinkle Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Personally mate i would buy a new one. Mines is an M8s and was only 30 odd quid. Been delighted with it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 It's my birthday today - and I received one of these pre-loaded OTT TV Boxes. They any good? What's my chances of catching some of the Scottish games on BT/Sky? If not them, what's it good far? I'm completely new to these things. Didn't even know what they were before today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinkle Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Most of the live Scottish games are either ones that are already on Sky Sports/BT Sports or the Old Firm... These boxes stream live tv channels, new films, tv shows, PPV etc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't* a clue about these boxes either when I first got it. Folk seem to be clued up in here though so don't hesitate to ask. I'd read through the topic as you'll pick some useful info up. Follow this link for Operation Robocop that someone has previously posted. It's simple to follow and will give you HD BT Sports channels. https://seo-michael.co.uk/tutorial-how-to-install-operation-robocop-video-add-on-kodi/ Edited March 3, 2016 by 19QOS19 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Thompson Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I've decided to go for an M8s box too. I had been running Kodi on a PC that was originally setup as a Plex Server. I think some of the quality issues Ive had might be down to the, relatively, low spec of the PC. For £40 its worth finding out 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Anybody got the keyboard? Mine has been playing up and not working. The light with what looks like a microphone, is having a red light seizure. The handbook doesn't even tell me what that light means! Any ideas? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im getting a free keyboard with mine but it almost certainly wont be the same as yours, it could be any generic wireless keyboard 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Thompson Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 If it's wireless and bluetooth can't you hook up your smartphone? ETA: I've the firestick and haven't done this yet, youngest son laughs at me when I use the remote to go through the on screen keyboard. Yes, probably. I've got a logitech bluetooth remote, so Im hoping I can connect that to it as well 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
