Upgrade of Amlogic S912 CPU in the work, which can probably rival Rockchip RK3399 on the high end.

On the other hand, on the medium end S905X upgrade S905X2 will probably be more popular since it is good enough for Android TV boxes. It can probably beat Rockchip RK3328 and Allwinner H6 in terms of popularity.

On the low end it is still S905W and the older RK3229 (avoid RK3229).

Best paid VPN for chinese shows on youku/aiyiqi? Any recommendation?

Either Transocks 穿梭 or SpeedIn 快帆 can be used.

Paid version SpeedIn is cheaper.

Just for YouKu you can pay for the VIP and then no need VPN, at least for now. Please refer to the above thread, you need to pay for the 酷喵影视 VIP if you want to use the TV version.

Hi folks, when I cast via cellphone to my TV, it doesn't fill up the TV, only playing back on a tiny portion of my TV. How do I fullscreen it?

most likely you are doing mirroring from handphone to tv. don't use mirroring if you are watching video.

the better way is chromecast or dlan cast. you can do it only if apps have this feature and your android box has chromecast or dlan cast receiver.

if you do it right, you can turn off your phone after casting, and you can continue watching video on tv.

Thanks, I tried both, but free version speed is not enough for iqiyi...

Understand VIP for youku can run without VPN, but not all show youku have..

I don't mind paying more for a more stable vpn (if transsock is better than SpeedIn )

SpeedIn free line is not good.

You can try SpeedIn VIP line for 30minutes by checking in from the Android version. The VIP lines are faster. I have tried it for a short while and it is good for iQiYi free account (up to 720p for the free account). Now I only use Youku so I seldom try the two VPN.

I have no experiences with Transocks Pro version.

You can also try China Tunnel VPN. I tried it previously and it was pretty good.
