Telkom LIT Android media box - Tips/Tricks/Apps thread

Installed Dstv now yesterday( version from the link in the 1st page) works great. But I think the screensaver overuses it. Because it stops when the screensaver kicks. Is there a way to override the screensaver not turn it off.

Set the screensaver to kick in after 2 hours.
 
So out of interest sake. I had a Beelink X2 on my Logitech Harmony before the lit box. When I use buttons for that profile, the red led light at IR on the Lit box lights up, but does nothing. It is almost like the hardware is there, but the software is not initialising it, and so it doesnt work :(

I'm trying to get the IR codes, but failing that a flirc is the way forward. Different devices have different codes but it's all on the same frequency so I'd expect the receiver to light up even if it doesn't understand the signal.
 
I got the Lit box and thanks to all here I managed to install the DSTV Now app. Am i just slow or blind? I can't see the tv guide for the live tv. Using version 1.40.12. Can anyone point me in the right direction, please?

Ok so I did some research and found the following:
https://community.logitech.com/s/question/0D55A000077xxvQSAQ/shenzhen-sdmc-technology-dv8219

So we need the codes. To which I found this for Linux:
https://forum.libreelec.tv/thread/3581-create-remote-conf-from-scratch/

But then I also found this:
http://www.minixforum.com/threads/how-we-create-our-own-ir-remote.7095/

Just not fond of the idea that the box needs to be rooted. So will see if there is another way to get access to /system/etc/remote.conf unless rooting is only needed to edit it. If I can read it, I will just go and add the codes to the Logitech forum.

Been using that version for the past 2 weeks now, don’t recall seeing the TV guide.

Thanks, the settings FAQ says that there is an 8 day guide but I don't see it. I can see the name of the programme playing on live tv, and descriptions for catch up services, but no descriptions for live tv.

If you have an Harmony with the Hub, just use bluetooth, works great.
Using this on my Shield TV.

Two problems there - 1, I don't have the hub (yet) and 2, LITs with A06 serials do not have bluetooth.

Won't they exchange it for a 07?

Surely, we should all have the same functionality?
