The Droid TV thread

Thanks guys will check out the suggestions and see what works best
 
If you have the stick you need to get a Bluetooth mouse. If you have the box you can use a USB/wireless mouse but preferably a wireless air mouse remote.
I prefer the wireless mouse. Just cant get use to this airmouse thing. Ive got two Mi Boxes and one with airmouse and the other with wireless mouse. The latter works far better. I feel like a drunkard using the airmouse. Only my 2cents.
 
So nobody used a hard drive on a MiBox to play videos or for some other reason?
I do. Ripped most of our DVDs to iso and play these on the mibox off an external. Much easier for the kids to switch between stories than changing DVDs all the time, which only end up scratched in any case
 
Yap but wich one is the better of the two??
For me Mibox build quality is better. I use Ethernet USB hub. Voice control on lit not working. However for price no brainer. Wish it had 16gb internal space but we need confirmation unified storage working as some don't with android 7. Most people won't notice difference. I also assume it has a SD card slot and extra USB port which would seal the deal for most at that price. Great clone
 
I see the LIT comes pre-installed with DSTV now. Does this mean there is a android tv friendly version (I.e. One that doesn't require a mouse)

If it's a new version or modified build for the LIT TVC perhaps someone can extract the APK for people to install on other Android players.
 
Speaking of the DStv now app, my version 1.36.4 still complains about rooting, is this the same experience for you guys?

The latest version automatically changes interface for android tv
 
Is there a way to have the DSTV Now apk app added to the Mibox home screen?
I can only access it via the Side Launcher app.

My phone is rooted, and yeh can't get DStv to work. Interesting that I can't pick up Netflix in the play store either

Aight. But my FireTV is not rooted so not sure how to get around the error. An older version (1.36.1 I think) did not complain
 
Find a previous version of DStv now apk
Isn't there a newer version of the app that does not give false positive "rooted device" errors. The newer versions have a better interface , show what's on each live channel and the progression etc

I'm not sure hey, and not sure why it's saying rooted when your device is not. Might want to pop them an email or something.
