Thank you for the link Angela Unfortunately the tips there have not worked. The T8 still shuts down when the TV is turned on. As mentioned this is a new issue. The box has been in situ for a year working fine. Nothing else in the immediate environment has changed. Anymore ideas Chris? Thank you

Hi Chris This is in Android. CEC was already off. I turned it on and then off again for the hell of it. If I then turned off the TV when on a different source to the T8 and turned TV on again, it would change to the T8 TV source. I rebooted the T8 and I am now back to my original post :( With...

Hi T8 S is connected to Sony Bravia via HDMI. When I turn the TV off (leaving the T8 on) and then switch back on, the T8 shuts down. This is a recent thing. The T8 is in the same place, connected to the same TV for a year. Any thoughts anyone? Many thanks

Hi Dave. Thanks for the reply. It was your post that prompted me. @ChrisM I have been using IPVanish for a while, I have it on all my devices. I'll checkout your info. Perhaps I'm being over cautious, after all there is a lot of streaming content available to an android device. Regards David...

Hi On my VM router my ethernet connected droidbox is named DroidBOX_T8Mini. The device name on the droidbox is T8-SP-V2-MINI-6.0 After reading posts about VM snooping I would like to minimise exposing what devices are connected to my router. I can't find a way to change the droidbox name on the...

So this is great that I have my music library through dbmc and kodi. But it seems to be an issue when VPN's are running. It's a bit of a pain to have to kill the pc vpn process and disconnect the droidbox vpn everytime I want to listen to music. I could just listen to it through my pc. Has...

Hi Chris. Thank you for the help yesterday. I have now figured out the problem. The VPN, ipvanish needs to be not running as opposed to just disconnected. At least I'm this case. Doh! Sent from my SM-G920F using DroidBOX Forums mobile app

Hi Chris I have tried es explorer and amaze and neither find the share from my pc. I have tried scanning and manually setting up the smb connection. VPN is off on droidbox and pc. I'm guessing telling you what I do in DBMC or Kodi is a mute point? Regards

Hi On my droidbox, dbmc is using 2.89 gb, whilst kodi 17 is 0.99 gb. My dbmc setup is pretty similar to kodi. What has dbmc going on that makes it this size? It's not a problem, I am just curios to know. Thank you

Thank you for the reply. No go I'm afraid. I followed the instructions at https://droidbox.co.uk/how-to/manual-ip-addresses-switching-from-dynamic-to-static/ Don't know if it's relevant but I can get to the router gui on 192.168.0.1 using the android browser. Sent from my SM-G920F using...
