    Help. Android dummy

    Take Nigelar's advice and change to the confluence skin and install wookie lite. If you are still stuck in libreelec then go to program addons, libreelec configuration, and you can revert to android from there. Install 2 wookie builds in android DBMC and Kodi e.g. Retro or Mega Krypton build if...

    V2 T8-S Plus

    I am thinking of buying a T8s-Plus v2, due the to the upgrade to 2.0 GHz Quad Core Cortex A53 Amlogic S905 Operating System: Android 6 Marshmallow, with 4K 60hz, but I am concerned that it requires an 8 digit code before you can use it. To get the code you need to contact DroidBox. OK, but what...

    Problems updating to kodi 17

    I have Kodi 17 with Mega Build Krypton, a favourite Wookie community build and it works fine. I have DBMX, SPMC and CEMC, and also LibreElec, so I have 4 other options if Kodi 17 has problems.

    unable to play 4k

    On Samsung 4k TV's you may have to enable UHD colour for each input, in picture options. Not all inputs, depending on the model, will have this option.

    New 4K TV

    Your have to make sure the tv has UHD colour enabled in advanced picture options for the hdmi input used by the box. On the box, in settings you need to set the video to one of the 4K settings and disable auto resolution. I have SUHD tv but the box keeps reverted back to 1080P 24kz when...

    terrible start

    BT is infamous for allowing one device connection to the internet, but then preventing another new device, on the same network, from connecting. Always ensure that "smart" setup and parental controls are disabled. I put smart in inverted commas because it isn't very smart.

    Booting into LibreELEC everytime

    Go to programs, LibreElec configuration, go down to "reboot to Android", just as sblabs has posted. Save LibreElec configuration to favourites to make it quicker.

    Location Setting

    It did not happen when I updated my box the other week to 107 but is doing that on my son's box which I updated yesterday. Strange.

    LibreElec

    Yes, Surely all builds give access to programs running in LibreElec, including LibreElec configurations, and no it can not affect Android. You could make the changeover easier by saving "LibreElec configuration" to favourites

    screen resolution set to 4K

    I have tried all of the above and if I set the resolution to 4K, with auto resolution off, all video is upscaled to 4K and the input indicates this on my 4K receiver. If I power down and restart it reverts to 1080p every time.

    screen resolution set to 4K

    Thank you Nigelar, for spotting immediately I had posted in the t8s plus forum. If I set the video resolution on the box to any of the 4K settings with the auto resolution to off, it is fine until I shut the box off. When I restart the box it reverts to 1080p 60hz. Brilliant box, small problem...

    screen resolution set to 4K

    Could please stop spouting garbage? The issue is with the box as all other devices deliver 4K or the TV upscales to 4K and so does my receiver. The receiver indicates the source is 4K only if I reset it to that but the box reverts back to 1080p if it is switched off. I wish I knew half of what...

    screen resolution set to 4K

    I have set the auto screen resolution to off and manually set the resolution to all 4K resolutions at different times, and it always reverts to 1080p. I have a Samsung 9000 series 55" TV that handles 4K from other sources e.g. BT UHD Box and Xbox one S. Any ideas how to keep the setting at 4K.

    Firmware up grade T8s plus

    I have just updated but could only do it using wifi as the Ethernet was "unable to connect to server". Brilliant now I can dual boot to libreELEC. It's much faster than android.
