hi all, am using mi box gen 3. haven't been using much but recently, I notice that i can no longer fast scroll by holding the direction key. Not sure when this happened though.

Quite troublesome that I have to click repeatedly for long menu. I used to be able to fast scroll by holding the direction key.

Any bro knows how to fix this? thanks.

KODI+Youtube addon.

I am using that, but too bad, some videos (like those by KBS with english sub) the subtitles never show up, but when we watch on desktop, or phone, can see the subs.

I have installed Youtube for Google TV, that works for me. Happy now!

Enable unknown sources in settings. One of the options in the top right of settings. Then you can use a usb stick to install .apk files.

Anyone with a rooted mibox gen 3 can send me the settings apk? I can access the android's settings with terminal but it seems I don't have the mibox settings.

These 2 video addons for kodi are now working again, after being down for a long time:
Sg!tv and mediacorp singapore.
These 2 addons gives better picture quality then Toggle on Xiaomi and user interface is better. Easier to choose any of the singapore tv channels catchup shows.
Also Toggle has to be updated frequently on xiaomi, else cannot watch

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

Thank you Sir

Anyone know whether the below will work or not?

Qn: Can MiPhone/Mipad do full screen mirroring (not only cast) to mibox or not?

Does mibox has something like Miracast?

I think previously someone posted that Samsung note 3 and 4 can work with mibox.
