Check out the Gamesir G4s - I'm quite happy with it.

Thanks, looks like a better price than Amazon and Gearbest.
Are you using it with the Steam Link App?

Cool... I pulled the trigger and bought it. Now to wait a month lol.

It's Chinese only, is that not going to be a problem? Well, the kids learning Mandorin in school is finally going to pay off

None needed. Just plug it in, and follow the instructions. Easiest thing ever. Assuming you have an Android device handy.

No but using it on the Litbox and also on my PC for gaming. Also used it on my Minix Neo u1

Hi guys, is it possible to add a second account to YouTube? Or a second Google account? I can't seem to find any options to add my wife's YouTube account, mine is loaded since I linked my Google account to the box.

Thanks!

You can also add her Google account, then YouTube will work with both accounts.

How do I do that, if I go to device settings I can only find the option to remove my account, not add another?

I just checked mine now and it can't be done on the Mibox but I can do it on my Lit box.

 

[AJBotha]

Thanks Awesum, that sucks!

It says certified , and it does casting - so the real deal then.

A walk in option.

Lucky I got mine before that happened - now if only i could figure out why I cant get repositories to load in kodi I would be a happy camper.

Bought mine from Takealot last week for R999! I see they have also upped the price and is now out of stock. I would just really like to add my wife's YouTube account so that she can't mess up my predictions. I also had an issue with DSTV Now voice and sound being out of Sync, had to manually kill all the open apps and then it worked again.

This daily deal or normal price you bought at?

 

[AJBotha]

It wasn't a daily deal but it was discounted.

It is R1,599 at Incredible Connection. And 16GB storage plus Ethernet. Seems like a better box than the Mi box.

Me too. Can't get Kodi to create a playlist from the HDD.

 

[Sukkafool]

Well, I have tried uninstalling, reinstalling, I have ensured that mi box settings allow installation of unknown apps and the same setting in Kodi. I tried the same repositories on my pc and it worked fine. Just will not play the game on Kodi on the Mi Box.
