netflix 4k, youtube 4k need only 25-30Mbps.

mibox's wifi can do so much more, I can get more than 200Mbps on wifi.

Not sure if this has been asked before. Can anyone with Mibox S confirm if Singtel Cast can be install on the box itself and works well without the need to chromecast from phone or tablet? Thanx in advance.

I tried yesterday, download on mibox s, linked my account from phone and used it on the box without Chromecast. For me there was some visible stuttering when watching football and the resolution is not as i expected, not sure if it's the same for all users tho. Could be my tv.

Thanks for the helpful info.

I have actually tried Singtel Cast on 2 older laptops with weak graphic chips and i observed the same jittery motion that you mentioned. Surprisely it worked on Fire TV 4k amazon silk browser using cast.singtel.com website, and the live feeds were perfect with no lag or jittery. Perhaps the android box is the culprit and not your tv set.

it is the app that causes the problem.

ask singtel for refund

Jittery was observed on 2 older laptops, but runs fine on my desktop which has a significant more advanced graphics card and on Fire TV.

So you might be correct, it could be down to the app itself. Ehhh..... how to ask for refund when it is the free for all weekend preview?

Have a problem with Toggle SG app on my MiTV 4S and Mi Box S.

Tried installing the app on both TV and Mi Box S. Able to see the purple Toggle words during startup, but screen turns black after that.

Tried to cast Toggle from my Android phone to the TV /Mi Box S. Can play on phone but TV screen can't see anything.

During installation, there is a warning saying the app needs to have Google Play services in order to work.

Am I missing something?

Just bought this Mibox S at qoo10 after using $12 coupon. After discount it's $70+. Hope it's a good box.

The $12 coupon is limited today to 10k users. Tried to grab this coupon yesterday night but was all taken. Do grab early for those who are waiting for a good price.

btw the box I purchased from CN seller haven't reached yet lol . Just saw this $69 mibox s from local seller, better deal but comes with shorter warranty period:
