Lots of buffering and I need to press the OK button on the Xiaomi remote to get it going...that is inside xbmc. Other Xiaomi apps like VOD, shafa market apps, cloudtv is still tolerable..I am on M1 100 mps home fibre broadband.

Anyone can suggest how to reduce the buffering within xbmc? I am on 2 yr M1 contract and it is not expiring yet.

what is the addon you used when you encounter this problem?
and which server you chose?

I chose Cliq!, live streaming from I Live streams and news..
In fact any video within xbmc I will get buffering. I have chosen config wizard and did the clear cache, delete package options to try to reduce the buffering but they don't work.

cliq! is slow and of low quality.

there are many other better addons, you should use them instead.

if you want to test your xbmc setting, try youtube and hd trailer addons. Both should have smooth 720p video, if not, then troubleshoot your setting.

Surprisingly singtel fibre works good on the mibox. At certain time there's a bit of buffering nonetheless still watchable..

Hi, just ordered The Xiaomi Mi Box 3, havent recieved it. however scared it might come in Chinese UI, so how do I change it? Do I do it this way?

Mi Box - simple English UI that just worked - even XBMC | Unofficial International MIUI / Xiaomi Phone Support

Or the way like installing google play on Amazon Fire TV?

The latest firmware 1.3.65 supports english but you need 3rd party software to gain access to android system setting to change the language to english.

How did u see Box 2? or Box 3?

think is box 2 cause no usb port.

officially there is no box 3, should be called box2 enhanced.

as long as there is one full size usb port, and no RJ45 LAN port behind, you get the right model.

hmmm, yeah, no usb port. sians. pack back into packaging, package came today but dun think lazada got work - -

Oh, mine got USB port, no ethernet port. Wireless AC can get around 120Mbps, which is better than usb 2.0 10/100Mbps ethernet dongle.
so i wont get a dongle.
