Webbo Posted 14 December 2014 Share Posted 14 December 2014 I've got an Amazon fire box, sideloaded with TVMC. It tells you how to do this on here http://www.tvaddons.ag/ . I've also got this box http://www.amazon.co.uk/XCSOURCE%C2%AE-Android-Sports-Internet-CN127/dp/B00KBLHC4A/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1418587189&sr=8-3&keywords=mx+android+tv+box Which I've set up in the bedroom. Tbh there isn't a massive difference between the 2. Btw Aliexpress sell the same boxes but it might take a few weeks to come in the post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CupidStunt Posted 14 December 2014 Author Share Posted 14 December 2014 think im going to stump for this one, purely on the basis its the latest box http://www.amazon.co.uk/XstreamTec-Dorado-M8-Midnight-Droidplayer/dp/B00QRVMQ7Q I will look at the amazon box I already got a skyf5s box, just wanted something wireless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whoareyaaa Posted 23 December 2014 Share Posted 23 December 2014 the best box out there at the moment in terms of stream quality and playback is the MiniX Neo x8-h plus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CupidStunt Posted 24 December 2014 Author Share Posted 24 December 2014 I bought the one i linked above, seems ok, no issues so far. whats makes the box you said better than the rest.

CupidStunt Posted 27 December 2014 Author Share Posted 27 December 2014 Did you watch the match on it today? The picture quality wasn't great I thought. I didnt mate no, only watched the west ham game, and that quality was shite so i turned it off. I have got my head around it now though setting all the menues up etc. a good bit of kit, but still prefer my skyf5s box Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webbo Posted 27 December 2014 Share Posted 27 December 2014 Wiziwig is the best place to look, it tells you the kbps. Yesterday I couldn't find anything reliable above above 175kbps, quite often you can get 400 which is a good quality picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indierich06 Posted 28 December 2014 Share Posted 28 December 2014 Slightly off topic, but do you think it would be possible to install plex on one of these android boxes and use it as a media server? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
