RE: Xiaomi 4K HDR 'Mi Box' (Android TV set-top box) - SWADED - 2020-02-22 (2020-02-21, 08:21)Guilles Wrote: Was there some known issue that Mi Box (oldie one) does not always change the resolution and refresh rate correctly? Every now and then (usually once a day at least) I have to restart Kodi so that I get autorefresh rate working again. Otherwise the box just outputs to TV whatever is the resolution in the mi box android settings e.g 720p60 or whatnot when the actual video is 1080p24 ---> stuttering cos of the 3:2 pulldown. After restart I get "normal" 2160p24. Refresh rate works. Resolution doesn't work, like you said it always outputs 4k. I just leave it on 1080/24p and with the rare 60p movie I got, I manually switch it to 1080/60p.

Hi, I wanted to do the same thing (my TV upscale should be better) but there's a problem : when doing that, your movie will be played at 24fps (not 23.976fps) ==> I saw it by pressing CTRL + MAJ + O during the movie. When the "Autorefresh" option is activated, CTRL + MAJ + O shows 23.976fps. Maybe it's not a big deal but I wanted to share it with you. Have a nice day! RE: Xiaomi 4K HDR 'Mi Box' (Android TV set-top box) - buyman - 2020-03-29 Would you still recommend the Mi Box over the Mi Box S? I currently use a RPi3 for Kodi, but need a device for Netflix, Prime and Disney+. As the RPi3 is also limited in terms of h265 I'd like to find a one fits all device. My AV-receiver is capable decoding the lossless audio formats (currently running a 1080p TV and 5.2 audio setup), so I guess I definitely want to keep the audio passthrough option and go for the non-S version (if I can manage to buy it somewhere). Or some higher class box like the Nvidia Shield TV or an Apple TV?

I'm just sharing something I've seen in the internet ... Registered just to say this helps! I had a MiBox that I'd factory reset on 2573. As a result it had lost the 'Always' setting, just had 'Auto'. It could do DD 5.1 in Kodi, but no DD+. Netflix would not do DD+ either. I soldered up a Male-Male cable, fired up adb, ran the commands, did a reboot and boom. DD+ working in Netflix. Thanks a heap! Unfortunately, Kodi still does not do DD+ passthru, only DD 5.1. I have a Vodafone TV as well, and DD+ does not work in Kodi on that either. Any tips?

For me the final version with KODI 18.6 is only working with transcoding everything to AC3, while netflix works with DD+. Just wanted to know if it would be worth to downgrade to beta 1.

Every audio HD stream is played as; DTS (+ New) < receiver info (source is DTS-HD, Atmos, and other DTS formats) DD and DD+ (source = DD or DD+) That is way less then when I use a Intel Based HTPC (signature), but it plays what is says it could play, so... Connection = HDMI RE: Xiaomi 4K HDR 'Mi Box' (Android TV set-top box) - Messatsu - 2020-04-27 Hi everyone. Are you guys noticing (like me) that MiBox 3 struggles a bit with huge files (4k HDR Bluray Remux, ~80000 kbps) with Kodi ? I'm starting to consider to replace it with another box... Thanks for your help. RE: Xiaomi 4K HDR 'Mi Box' (Android TV set-top box) - dm12 - 2020-04-29 My MiBox S came with Android 8.1. Should I update it to 9.0?
