when I bought the U1 last year I immediately installed the latest version (version 16 BETA) that was available in the minix support forum.
So since then I've not been happy with the performance.
1) the app did not support a lot of my downloaded content. A lot of times it would freeze and require a reboot
2) the ATMOS passthrough functionality was very very spotty. There are times when no sound would come out and the video stutters. Soon after that you will lose the ability to use the remote. Again, this would require a reboot of the system
overall a very frustrating purchase
Then last week I was looking for an updated version of the app and noticed my mistake (yup, only last week!).
I never installed the STABLE version of XBMC for Minix (version 15).
So I unistalled the 16 BETA version and downloaded version 15. Lo and behold it was a world of difference!
Everything is more stable now. No more freezing, no more reboots, no more missing audio, no more unplayable files.
PERFECT!!
anyway, just sharing my experience so that other people who were overly excited as I was won't make the same mistake I did.
