Looks like the CPU (Amlogic T972) is the weak point for Mi TV 5 and 5 Pro.

I see zero listing in Lazada and only one preorder listing in Shopee. So I guess you have to order from Taobao directly if you want it now. Shipment could be an issue and warranty is an issue too.

Not normal.. do a soft reset first to erase the memory caches. As for the factory reset, it will involve downloading and replacement of OS. for the Global TV, better check with the seller where is server link and how safe as the internet link to the server has to be tip top for successful factory reset.

it is youtube's problem, normally this problem happens when you fast forward video.

to reduce the frequency of this problem, use the firestick version of youtube.

Have been following this thread and eventually ordered the 4S last Fri @ $524 after voucher discount. TV arrived yesterday, which I think is quite fast.

Faced a problem while setting up. The remote can't seem to pair with the TV. As instructed, I pressed the 2 buttons simultaneously but there was no reaction. Luckily I was also using a MiTV before this and I am now using the old remote to control my new TV.

Anyone face the same problem as me and have any solution?

Morning and thanks pcuser for the advice. Will monitor again and see if problem persists before meddling with all these resets as I am not the tech-savy type...

Hi kitz79, just to check if you had inserted 02 AAA batteries into the remote as mine came without batteries and was pressing the two buttons like hell for a while, then realised there was no batteries in the remote. Once inserted batteries, able to pair remote with TV smoothly liaoz... Hope this helps.

Ya, I inserted batteries. In fact I switched batteries after the 1st pair don't work. Unfortunately, the second pair didn't work as well.

I PM Mu TV Store. Hope they can help me....

Recently my Mi Box S displays HDR over Ultra HD 4K for some titles on Netflix like "The Witcher" and it is super dark..Really bad dark. Anyone got solutions to only show Ultra HD 4K? The colors are much brighter and better..
