The Droid TV thread

The Lit box and mi box have similar specs, no big differences, only difference will be the optimization of the software, lit box has a newer version if android TV but is not optimized properly while the mi box is and Netflix still needs to be certified for the lit box.

You guys using Kodi, do you use a DNS service or anything? I am running, for the first time since ditching Netflix, a DNS service(Getflix) and it seems to have sorted out the buffering issues. Well ,last night I watched a movie without buffering. Dunno if I am just lucky or what. I see IP Vanish gets punted on every website where Kodi is mentioned.

I've heard this before but I have to ask... Why would a DNS server make a difference? VPN or Proxy, sure, but DNS?

1. Look and feel of the box and remote.
2. Mi box is a certified Android box ( not sure of the lit)
3. Cheaper- importing is around 950- 1000 if you can get a group buy
4. Mi box delivers on more then it says, friends of mine complained esp dstv now.
5. Gpu is almost double the lit.

I am very happy with the mi box, I haven't heard anyone say that about the lit box yet.

The Mi Box and LIT box have exactly the same CPU, GPU and RAM.

I would rely on Terrarium for much longer being in existence.

However import costs and all the Mi Box will set you back around R1250 to your door delivery. Unless your browsing the net the full Rii keyboard is also no longer needed due to DSTV Now supporting Android TV.

Why... what u heard
 
Don't say that man, having so much trouble with kodi already. Not too worried about extras got kb, mouse etc already. Just want a nice smooth box that doesn't hang up constantly and not have to chop and change add-ons continuously, even if the means signing up for showmax or Netflix.

Was looking at the minix u9-h as well.

Then you won’t go wrong with the Mi Box, I’m not even bothered about some of these half glued together boxes with varied support and functionality. The only other box I would ever touch is the Nvidia Shield. If you home network allows the Mi Box to be connected wirelessly then I’d hands down go for that rather.
