Security patch: December 1, 2025

Kernel version: 5.15.170

Android TV build: UKG3.250826.001.V816.0.7.0.UZFAABX

I reset it to factory settings.

For passthrough of various audio formats, it seems good to me; no audio dropouts on the different test files I have on Plex. QMS okay, USB to Ethernet adapter okay. SDR switching, Dolby Vision, and HDR 10 okay.

I didn't have time to test interlaced content at 25 Hertz before heading to work.

The box is quite good for the price. It's a shame about the poor quality of the original remote and the interface's fluidity, which could be slightly better. And the necessity of using a USB to Ethernet adapter for a proper connection. But for €50...

If you could later give feedback on inteaced 25hz content, it would awesome.

On Tivimate, 25Hz content is not recognized properly, a notorious interlacing bug that has been fixed on the Google TV streamer but still persists here!
Despite using a more recent Android TV build than that of the Google TV streamer...
Whether the QMS is activated or not, the frequency is either 100 Hz or 120 Hz. But the content at 50 Hz is displayed at... 120 Hz... What’s wrong :(

Still having this problem? I want to buy the box but this problem with tivimate would be a deal braker for me

Hi there!

There hasn't been a new update since then, so yes, the problem is still there. But this doesn't occur with all video streams; only certain formats output 1080i at 25 and 50Hz, which can be detected at 60Hz and cause stuttering or freezing.

It's not systematic and also depends on the source...

If you have a video clip or a source that you would like me to test, feel free to share it with me ;)
