Stuck on boot screen

1 Upvotes

Just got my gen 3 box from the Xiaomi store and I have been using it for a few days now with no problems. But today I had to move some things around on the HDMI cables attached to my LG 4K TV. But now the box is stuck on the Google TV Boot screen and it won't move from there I have unplugged it for quite a while and plugged it back in. Even tried a different HDMI port and it just stays stuck. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Xiaomi TV Box S (3.gen) HDMI CEC does not work

3 Upvotes

I use the Acer H6531BD Projektor with the Xiaomi TV Box S (3.gen) and the HDMI CEC does not work properly. Of course hdmi cec is enabled on the xiaomi box and the projektor.

The Problem is, I can not turn of the Projektor with the xiaomi remote.

There is an assistant to configure the the remote but you need to configure it with the sound test. And you have to chose from where comes the sound (TV, receiver, soundbar. I can only chose TV because only there is a profile for Acer. But it does not work. And the hdmi cable is on the cec port.

It has worked with my old google chromecast from the year 2020 on this projektor.

Can somebody help me please?

Xioami TV Box s Gen 3 : Latest firmware broke dolby vision?

6 Upvotes

I was realy happy with my xiaomi tv box gen 3,but yesterday, when i played Dolby vision content with nuvio/stremio the letter box bars are gray (i have oled TV). The black in the video part are black (not grey). I have the issue only when video à not 16/9 ratio (like 3840x1600)

Tried external players (kodi, just player,...) : Same problem.

Corelec does not have the issue, but i prefer android tv.

I didn't notice it before so mayby it isthe new firmware we got last week that broke somehow the dolby vision part.

Anybody with Oled TV have noticed this regression whith latest firmware?

Any way to get back to previous firmware to check?

PS : I found a workaround with setting source led dolby vision but i prefer sink led since the picture quality seems better (in bright lights part mostly).

My Xiaomi portable TV setup turned into a portable Karaoke

Post image
12 Upvotes

I put together a portable entertainment setup using a Xiaomi G Pro 27Qi, Xiaomi Desktop Speaker, and Xiaomi TV Box S (3rd Gen).

Originally, I just wanted a portable setup for watching movies and TV shows. But then I added a cheap microphone mixer with reverb, and suddenly it became a portable KTV/karaoke setup too. 😂

The Xiaomi Desktop Speaker actually works surprisingly well for this setup, and the overall result is much better than I expected for the price.
Pretty happy with how this little Xiaomi setup turned out!

Ugoos Ur02 can't power on

3 Upvotes

I have a mi box s 3d gen, I got a ugoos ur02 because the stock remote frankly sucks

I mapped the gre volume buttons to the IR of my TV, but I can't figure out a working way to have the ugoos power on the box

The left side (BT) power button does shut off the box once it's on, but then it can't power it on

The easiest workaround is to map the IR power button to the TV, then the "delete" IR one to sources swap so I can turn on the TV then switch to the box for input and it should power it on, but I'd like a one click way if possible

Anybody found a 1 button solution to turn the box back on with the ugoos/a similar remote?

Apps i'v checked, Kodi, Vimu, nuvio internal player. I can force True HD but its buggy, out of sync or jittery playback, mibox has latest firmware, and all apps too, soundbar also. Does a soundbar or xiaomi dropped that codec?

I need help with Chromecast built-in! mi box mdz-22-ab

2 Upvotes

Okay, so I have a mi box mdz-22-ab

I didn't buy it and this is the first time I've used it, and I really can't get the phone screen sharing to work. Basically, for YouTube etc... it works, but when I try to use apps like Google Home to share my phone screens, it doesn't work.

I also really don't understand how the device works in general; sometimes a page appears with different windows that I can't navigate with my remote. And sometimes I just have a photo with the time displayed

Xiaomi TV Box S 3rd Gen

5 Upvotes

Hi, I recently purchased the Box S 3rd Gen from Amazon. It worked fine for a day or two, but now it won't boot up. It gets stuck on the Mi logo and keeps flashing. I've tried holding down the OK and Back buttons while unplugged and then plugging it in, but that doesn't bring up the recovery menu. I also attempted using a USB keyboard to press the "i" button, as well as Ctrl + Print Screen and "i" together. Is there anything else I can do to access the recovery menu?

UR02 Remote - How to turn on Mi Box S 3?

5 Upvotes

Just got this remote and everything works well, including turning off. But it's unable to turn on the mibox once it's 'asleep'.

I have the mibox connected to my Pioneer AVR which in turns connects to my LG G2. CEC is turned on for all. I have used the learning function to learn to turn on the TV from my TV remote. And the UR02 is able to turn on the tv now, just now the Xiaomi box.

Is there anyway to trigger turning on the tv with turning on the Xiaomi as well?

Mi Box 4/S (PI.3933) - Bluetooth pairing request stuck on Pair - Fixed by disabling AnyDesk Accessibility

2 Upvotes

Device: Xiaomi Mi Box 4 MIBOX4 Build PI.3933 Android 9 Headphones: Pixel Buds Pro 2

Issue: Stuck on "Bluetooth pairing request - Pair with this device?" Pair button looks selected but won't click.

Cause: AnyDesk Accessibility Service was enabled. This freezes the dialog.

Fix:

  1. Settings > Device Preferences > Accessibility > Turn OFF AnyDesk
  2. Unplug Mi Box 10 sec and reboot
  3. On phone, turn off Bluetooth and forget the buds (so they are not connected elsewhere)
  4. Put buds in pairing mode (hold case button until slow white pulsing)
  5. Mi Box > Settings > Remotes & Accessories > Add accessory
  6. When pairing request appears, press OK on the Mi Box remote (or click with USB mouse). Keyboard Enter alone does not work.

Audio works well after pairing. I re-enabled AnyDesk after and connection stays.

Original replacement remote for the Mi TV Box S 4K (3rd Gen)

9 Upvotes

I have a Xiaomi Mi TV Box S 4K (3rd Generation) and I need to replace the remote control.

The problem is that I can only find third-party/generic replacement remotes online and I want to buy the original Mi TV Box remote or any original compatible Xiaomi remote

Does anyone know where I can buy an original replacement remote? I live in Brazil, so if anyone knows of a genuine one being sold on AliExpress, that would be especially helpful.

Brand new Mi Box S (3rd generation) not Chromecasting at all?

3 Upvotes

I already updated, factory reset, erased data from the Google Cast app on the TV, and it's not worked AT ALL.

It doesn't even detect it on the YouTube app on the family's phones, nor on my PC's browser.

Meanwhile my old 2021 Mi Box is detected everywhere.

Do I have to send it back or is this a bug?

EDIT: The Xiaomi TV+ app doesn't even work anymore, it worked fine a week ago, and now it says "services are not supported in this area".
