Agreed. Nagtipid sila sa ethernet port. hehe

Pero saturated na ba yung WiFi Network mo sa bahay? Kung kaunti lang naman WiFi devices, kayang-kaya na yan ng 2.4Ghz..or switch to 5Ghz router..or WiFi AC..or bili ng USB Ethernet.

- - - Updated - - -

Included a Kodi TV Box Buying Guide in the initial post.

di pa naman saturated kasi 4 devices lng gumagamit, thanks for the suggestions tho. I'm planning to buy ageneric android tv box on lazada and i'm still on the process of researching stuffs.

matanong ko lng, would a pfsense router or any other caching stuff help para iwas buffering? tapos pano dapat tamang setup(i mean, parang sa icafe para iwas lag sa other devices) ?

Most probably malakas sa resources ang Android OS mo, lalo na kung hindi fully optimized/updated siya.

Do you need Android po? Kasi kung Kodi gagamitin mo, better to flash LibreElec sa Kata TV Box. Automatic boot to Kodi na yan. Ang problema lang, Linux na ang OS mo, hindi Android. Kaya may mga apps/program na hindi na gagana.

Better to ask the pfsense experts. Medyo simula pa lang kasi ako mangapa ng PFsense. But in theory, I imagine it to work as planned.

Kakabili ko lang ng TV box, nexbox a95x. Same specs ng MI box, 1gb variant nga lang inorder ko, yun lang kinaya ng budget. May possible way na ba para makapagbackup ng stock rom ng mga Amlogic devices? para in case na kailangan ngreprogram may magagamit? Salamat.

Merry Christmas sir! My friend also has a Nexbox A95X, purchased from Lazada (1Gb S905X variant, with Hidden Reset button inside the AV port).


Tanong ko lang, bakit mo gustong mag-backup ng Android OS? May balak ka bang magFlash ng ibang Firmware/OS? Kasi may suggestions ako for you:

• If you don't need the Android Apps, installing LibreElec on a Class 10/UHS-I microSD card will give you the best Kodi experience (Exodus add-on runs perfectly).
  Just remove the SD card, and you are back to Android OS. Simple as that.
  
  
• If you want to flash LibreElec to Internal Memory (risky!), you are better off flashing TWRP Recovery.img, then performing a Nandroid Backup of your stock ROM using TWRP recovery.

Buhay na buhay siya sa sala! Mostly using Kodi for Movies, and Google Cast for Karaoke night. No need to torrent content na kasi kaya naman mapanood at the same quality level.

Kung may Nvidia rig lang sana ako, lalagyan ko rin ng Moonlight para may gamestreaming siya, tapos kabitan ko ng Xbox 360 controller.



Yung second link mo sir, hindi International Version. Chinese version na MiBox3. Wag mo bibilin yun!

Mas recommend ko yung kay MeMoSmart Store kasi may 4-day DHL delivery siya na medyo mura (nakuha ko yung DHL ko for only $2.49, instead of the usual $20-$40)

safe po ba mag purchase sa ali? puro lazada lng kasi ako...

yung kodi po ba is a program na loaded na ng mga online movies? thanks in advance planning stage pa lang

• Safe sa AliExpress sir. I bought a second Mi Box na from the MeMoSmart store pang regalo sa kaibigang ikakasal.
  
• DHL door-to-door delivery is only $2.11 right now! Super cheap, fast, and hassle free delivery na yan.
  
• If takot mang-iwan ng credit card info, just create and use a PayMaya account (virtual debit card), and load sa 7-11.
  
• Regarding Kodi, yes it is a Media player that is capable of streaming free movies online. But no, these features are not pre-loaded on initial installation.

Check out the Kodi thread for more info and help.

Good news: Available na ang Xiaomi Mi Box sa Lazada.
Bad News#1: P3869 siya
Bad News#2: Mag-ingat sa fake.
May nagbebenta rin sa Lazada ng Non-International version (China model) ng Mi Box 3.
Make sure na model MDZ-16-AB siya para may official Android TV OS with Chromecast+4k Netflix yung bibilin mo.

TS pwede po paki trykung nagana yung OpenVPN and Http Injector. Salamat

 

[DrewV]

TS nung umorder ka sa aliexpress, wala ka ba binayaran na tax nung na deliver sayo?

If it works for (unrooted) Android, it should work side-loaded. Gumagana naman VPN sa akin para bypass geo-locking ng Amazon videos and HBO Go.

TS nung umorder ka sa aliexpress, wala ka ba binayaran na tax nung na deliver sayo?

Pag Regular China shipping, just the P112 parcel fee. No customs tax.

Pag sa DHL, Direct to Doorstep ang delivery without customs tax either. Better ang DHL sa Memo Smart store, kasi $2.11 lang siya ngayon!

 

[gevchester]

sir may video kayo na sample ng work around niya and demo?
sa lazada nakita ko
₱ 3,828.00
ang price.

Re: Xiaomi Mi Box -- Convert your TV into a SMART TV! (with Tutorial)

interesting. try ko to.

 

[badbadbad]

Available na nga po sa Lazada, kaso ingat lang sa fakes/non-Google licensed Xiaomi products. May China-release kasi ng MiBox 3 na walang Chromecast function. Generic S905X box lang yun.

Kung bibili kayo sa Lazada, siguraduhin niyo lang muna sa seller na may legit Android TV OS and Chromecast function yung device na bibilin ninyo. At kung dumating na yung order niyo, paki lagay na lang sa feedback na "Official Google Device" yung binili niyo para makatulong sa iba. Thanks!
