Xiaomi Mi Box / Mi Box S [Android TV OS]

Now it's behaving after restarting the stream for the 6th time

Have not used the Now app on the Mi Box in ages. Brought it with on timeshare in PE and just fired it up. Plays a few minutes of 403 then this. Rinse repeat. Any idea? I have done the latest update and all apps are up to date in the App store.

Well a 416 error is: "A 416 status code indicates that the server was unable to fulfill the request. This may be, for example, because the client asked for the 800th-900th bytes of a document, but the document was only 200 bytes long"

Will try it out when i'm home. Could just be a DSTV thing

Just MultiChoice things I guess.

Unfortunately everything working fine at home.

Is your connection over WiFi or fixed cable?

Has been behaving since my last post funnily enough. I am using wifi to a Huawei 4G mifi as I am on holiday. Maybe the Mi Box was just settling down after its update and Now was just unsettled. Family happily streaming some cooking show now and are out of my hair...

The recent update enabled a useful shortcut on the remote. Long pressing the O button brings up the app menu!

And so it does. Nice find there. I'll definitely be using this

Happy with the latest update. The wake up is much faster now.

Same, remote seems better too. Thank God, got sick of having to unplug every so often.

LOL, likewise!

I had my first crash with no signal and everything just stopped responding with the Twitch app that was recently updated for the first time in more than a year. That's not the Mi Box's fault though and I don't know if 4K and HDR makes a difference but I'm extremely happy with it at 1080P, for the R1099 mine was I think it's very much a bargain.

Same here. Finally fixed.

It feels worse for me now. Did you do a factory reset afterwards?

My wake-up was a bit shaky last night ... moved to network cable now as well, so will see how that goes

Today I attempted to use the mic in the remote and the box immediately froze solid. Had to remove power to reset.

Possibly a once off. I voice searched last night without a hiccup.

Press once, wait 10 sec and press again
