Just a quick question: I'm only buying this for my Mandarin-speaking grandparents. Any recommended apps to download for Chinese shows or Mandarin-DUBBED Korean/Japanese/whatever else dramas?
for chinese shows, can use 热门电视剧 (hotdrama2) but i think this app needs a mouse. the user interface is in chinese
for those apps that use the mibox remote, u can also install kodi, then these add ons: drama24h, AZdrama, DramaGo. These 3 apps hv TVB dramas in canto voice and chi sub. dramago is the most updated n has the latest shows. azdrama and maybe drama24h hv some korean drama dubbed in canto. but not many and these dramas are quite old.
the downside to using these 3 is that the user interface is in eng, so might be hard for ur grandparents
last option is u install chinese aggregator apps like 电视猫(More TV), 布丁视频 (Pudding TV). can use both mouse and mibox remote. these apps have TVB, jap , kor drama. tvb drama are avail in canto voice and chi voice. but jap and kor dramas are not mandarin dubbed. also such apps might be hard for your grandparents to use coz a drama may hv multiple sources (different streaming sources eg. tudou, youku, letv etc). some sources are laggy in sg. some are smooth. so hv to trial and error to find which sources are good
