[ROM] Mecool/Acemax KI PRO SCV1 ATV - Android 7.1.2 ( Android Tv Version )

[abbots]

Hi guys/girls, sorry for the lack of updates, but really dont have to much free time this days to do my custom rom work, if anything changes i will update my roms if not...

Superceleron, thank you very much for all your work so far!

On the You Tube issue:

Yes, 2.03.06 was also problematic .
I was going to try 2.02.14 from the mirror link couple posts above, but noticed that aptoidetv app allows to install 'other versions'

Tried that, and, installed 2.02.14, so far so good, aptideapt version says

cataplas, from your website I learn that the changes in the new version are:
Easier to resume where you left off when switching apps
• Smoother video playback and fixes to reduce stuttering
• Introduced the ability to seek using Google Assistant (e.g. "skip ahead 30 seconds")
• Added personalized channels to the Android Oreo homescreen
The first one is definitely what was wrong from version 2.03.04. I think 2.03.06 brought the freezes or made them worse.

I canceled the auto update when doing this, as I noticed before 2 steps of youtube getting worse. I will try updating when it is not in use (for TV).
Btw, the version showing through the store is the one of the latest update. The installed version would show when going through the setup>apps. This confused me a little.

I believe YouTube versions 2.03.06 and 2.03.04 are bad. Version 2.02.14 is the last good one.
Please update here if you find a new version to work.

I've installed from aptoidetv, then, it updated from PlayTV to 2.03.06
so now I'm on 2.03.06

I don't use YouTube (or in fact the TV box) that much, so, in my limited usage, it seems ok.
All the videos I've tried played OK - whereas before YouTube was unusable.
I'll try bit more usage later today.

Uninstall Youtube TV.
Install Aptoide TV application - install Youtube TV from aptoide.

that worked, thanks !!

question: in aptoidetv there is a YouTube on 'main tab' (installed that one), under 'music' tab, there is another YouTube app

YouTube Google Inc 2.02.14 18.6MB
YouTube Google Inc 13.29.53 22.7MB requires mouse

I've installed 2.02 from main tab, (and YouTube Music from 'Music' tab, it was only under Music )

so 2.02.14 is what I should have ?

anyhow, so far it seems to work normal, haven;t had any issues, thanks again!

Yes, noticed same today - not that I've used it much before-

Tried to view the K2 ski descent- app locked up.

Then, tried several music clips - total lock up, useless.

Any work arounds?

Does YouTube still work ok for you? Mine became now completely unusable for most videos, except for low quality ones.

I owned a KII Pro with new 905D. Specs are looking to be the same. Is it possible to use this rom for my KII Pro 905D as well?

Any Idea why youtube, after exiting, would remain showing on the homepage as playing in the background? It prevents me from running anything else video related, including youtube - I would only get a black screen. I need to reboot, or keep playing around in the play store until youtube shuts down.

He wrote it only works with youtube. A licence thing I believe.

Built in google cast does not work for me.
The feature is active, the cast device name is visible in Google home on my phone/tablet. But when I try to send any media, I always get an error message (at the source device), and nothing displayed by KI PRO.
