I've upgraded to Oreo. Chromecast built is is working. Reading movies from NAS is working.  I still haven't tweaked the setting much. New look needs getting used to.

Optical. Nag passthrough pa naman via Kodi kahit oreo na. Yung lang save ko muna sa flash drive yung movies ko para ma read ng Kodi. Problema eh yung more than 4GB files eh nde pwede copy sa FAT32.

Yes, available ang VLC sa Play Store.  Sa audio, working yung pass-through.  Oks rin ang 5.1 audio, kahit na PCM ang signal from Mi Box to receiver.

For those who are using mi box -> optical -> avr.  Then VLC player, paano nyo napapalabas yung DTS legacy audio? I mean ano po setup nyo sa mi box and VLC player? TIA

after the oreo update my 5ghz wifi is so slow..
i used to stream 4k HEVC Remux with 50gb to 70gb filesize.
now it stops and buffers alot.
after checking wireless AC is now capped at 50 Mbps to 60 Mbps.

even when getting a good link like this. still getting only 60 Mbps max even with iperf.

are you using Kodi?

give up muna ako sa Kodi, mukhang they need to update it to resolve the problem. Right now, I'm using Archos Media. working naman audio passthrough, no problems with  DTS/Dolby. hindi ko lang gusto pag full screen, na crop yung screen instead of stretching it.

My Mi Box 3 does not automatically connect to the WiFi AP after update.  You need to manually select a saved AP profile and connect.  Bummer.

I believe it says that they stopped the forced global rollout of Oreo OTA for marshmallow user.
For users that already upgraded to Oreo. They'll be receiving the HDCP 2.2 and NTFS patch.

Can't use MiBox right since the update. shows HDCP 2.2 error. Any work around for this while waiting for the patch?
