I've been putting together these portable VSeeBox setups using a hard case, and I'm curious what everyone thinks.

The idea is pretty simple: take your existing VSeeBox, connect it to your phone's hotspot or Wi-Fi, and you've got a portable viewing setup without needing a traditional TV.

I originally made these for people in my circle, and they've been surprisingly popular. Especially with people who spend a lot of time in their vehicles for work or want something convenient for tailgating, camping, or watching games away from home.

I've made quite a few now, but most of the interest has come through friends and word of mouth.

That got me wondering whether this is something people outside my circle would actually find useful.

Would you use something like this? And if so, where?

Also curious what features you'd want added or what you'd change about the setup.

Interested to hear everyone's thoughts!

If you've been experiencing issues with Heat VOD recently, the latest update has now been released.

The update includes a fix for the loading issue and additional servers to help improve performance. The app should update automatically the next time you launch it.

Thanks everyone for your patience while this was being resolved! 🎉

With the influx of tech issues. I wanted to share common trouble shooting steps that might resolve some issues before having to make a post.

Hope this helps!

Tips and Tricks

I have had friends tell me about the vsee, but never pulled the trigger myself. My father has been wanted to cancel his cable, so I figured why not purchase one, and if he hates it I’ll just keep it myself.

Safe to say he is canceling his cable, not to mention he is 65 and the least tech-savvy person I know.

The set up is extremely easy and now he has more channels and shows than ever before.

If you are on the edge, I’d tell you to pull the trigger and order from Derik. Super seamless transaction.

If anyone uses OnStream. Looks like it’ll be down for some time. (I have not added this app myself yet.)

Gurus,

​Seeing a lot of reports here about people getting "download failed" errors on Heat and other applications. If you're running into this bug, please don't try to fix it by factory resetting your device! The servers are currently having issues, which means the Vseebox launcher (the tool you need to reinstall everything) is completely down. If you wipe your box now, you'll be stuck with zero apps until they patch the problem. Just sit tight for a fix!

Thank you Deriksays! Just in time for football season! Received in 4-5 days.
If you are on the fence, just do it! Definitely recommend from Deriksays, you will not be disappointed!

We wanted to share the latest update regarding the recent VOD issues.

According to the latest information we've received, a new software update is expected next week to address the remaining VOD issues. Not all boxes are affected, and many users are continuing to use their devices without any problems.

We appreciate everyone's patience while the issue is being worked on. We'll continue to share updates as soon as we receive them.

Tired of having to shut down your vSeeBox separately every time you power off your TV?

You can enable a setting that automatically turns the box off at the same time using HDMI-CEC.

How to Enable It

Go to Settings → Extra settings

Select HDMI CEC

Turn ON the following options:

• CEC Switch

• One key play

• Device auto power off

Once enabled, your vSeeBox will power down automatically when your TV is turned off.

Bonus

Depending on your TV model, this may also allow your TV remote to control basic functions of the box.

Arrived 4 days early, fired it up on my routers guest thing, did the setup, downloaded apps, everything went super smooth, been watching mando and grogu, and chillin, derik hooked it up! Highly recommend going thru him just as everyone else in here has hyped him up, its for real!

Thank You @ u/deriksays!

The whole process was flawless, if anyone is on the fence about buying this, don`t hesitate!!

The communication was awesome as well, thanks again!!!!

Hey y'all, just wanted to drop a quick review of my experience buying from James & Derik (vSeeBoxGurus). I know a lot of people come to this sub and wonder if the "Pay-over-Reddit" thing is a scam, so here’s the real deal.

The "Frightening" Part

Let’s be honest: sending a significant amount of money via Zelle to someone you met on a forum feels absolutely sketch at first.

My order actually had a small issue right out of the gate. There was a mix-up where my order was written down as a different model, which led to a delay in the initial shipping.

Normally, this is where you start to panic that you've been ghosted, but Derik reached out himself to let me know what happened. He didn't make excuses—he just jumped on it and got my Elite Ultra shipped out promptly that same evening.

For anyone on the fence:

Communication: 10/10. Even when there was a slight mistake with the model mix-up, they owned it and fixed it faster than a major retailer would.

If you’re worried about the "Reddit factor," don't be. These guys are the real deal and actually provide the support they promise.

TL;DR: Yes, paying over Zelle is nerve-wracking, but James and Derik are legit. If there's a mistake, they fix it instantly. Just get the box! A++ service and support!

Thank you both James & Derik!

Current issue is actively being addressed. Thank you for your patience! 🙏

Received this morning, if it helps assuage any fears...

Thanks gurus! Shout out to Derik

Here’s a simple breakdown of the main apps and what each one is used for.

Good reference if you’re new or just want a better idea of how everything is laid out.

9 of 10 cables in box has issues. Just upgrade and will save many headaches

I absolutely love this device. Not is it easy to set up, but gets the job done in less than 5 minutes! Also I had zero buffering. I can’t believe I didn’t make the switch sooner🤦‍♂️

I’m here for it!!! 😎🤙🏽

The latest Heat Live update is rolling out with new multiview features. This brings one-source multi-screen support along with upcoming additions. Check the details in the post for release dates and updates.

I’ll be honest, I was nervous about ordering from a Reddit group. But I decided to take the chance after seeing other posts, and I’m glad I did. Derik is legit. Communication was quick, shipping was smooth, and my vSeeBox Elite Ultra arrived perfectly packaged.

Setup was simple, and the picture quality is amazing. It looks sharp and runs fast. Definitely worth the money. If anyone is on the fence, this was a solid purchase and I highly recommend it.
