First review............ we spent more than 40 minutes assembling the motherboard again. I never have seen something so difficult!

Thanks for the information and pictures. I would like to know for sure that Dolby passthrough works in the latest XBMC 13 beta builds, without having to go thru hoops to get it to work. Also, what version XBMC came with your unit. Is it rooted?

Not rooted

Screen resolution shows 1280x720. Is it not a full hd firmware? Or you have set it to that resolution?

It's in "auto-detection" mode. This TV is 720p

I will need some time to test more, also 01:30AM here now

Antutu Benchmark:






This device has been running from yesterday to now, about to 24hrs without stop. We downloaded some APP from Google Play, played some videos... and did NOT auto-reboot.

Video tests at begining of this post was made with a second device as we needed to use another TV. Exactly same model, Beelink M8 16GB (WiFi/BT chipset 6330)

Can you show some YouTube video of the device doing true 5.1 showing cable connection to receiver and receiver showing pass through working properly?

First two are ok, Dolby True-HD we don't have this kind of video, so must download and test.

We will do it next week on the big TV. Anyway I guess it will be a fail... as seen with tronsmart (same hardware).

different S802 boxes so far

Hi All,

I'm new to this forum but I've been following some posts for a while now, I'm considering buying an android box and the new ones with Amlogic S802 and Mali450 are pretty interesting. There are a few models out there now but I'm not quite sure what the difference is between them all. Im doing a lot of research and have read a lot of things but some things are still unclear and confusing.. :s

This is a list of S802 models I have seen

TRONSMART VEGA S89 / MEASY B4A / BEELINK M8
review: http://blog.geekbuyi...w/#.UzJji4UVAdE
tronsmart elite: 8GB
tronsmart: 16GB
Measy: 8GB

Beelink has no noise on SPDIF passthrough compared to Tronsmart

ENY EM8 / TOMATO TM8
review: http://www.cnx-software.com/2014/04/...-s802-unboxing

''the eny es8 is from another factory, and it should be in stock in the end of April, they are still trying to improve their board, from now on, the pcba board is no good as tronsmart ones, and system is also no good as tronsmart ones.'' (geekbuying)

GENIATECH ATV582
Only 1GB of RAM

GENIATECH ATV1800
only 1GB of RAM
video+audio RCA Output

Which boxes come with a remote control?? Tronsmart doesnt seem to have one, but The Beelink does (from the pics in this thread)
Which boxes already have the S802DD? How can we know when the 2nd batch will be available?
Do they all support Miracast? (info sometimes missing on specs)
Have they all got the same interface?

And just wanted to say, great forum! very helping

Thanks

Pretty sure they all come with a remote of some sort. I have an ATV520 and it came with a remote but I bought a Logitech k400 keyboard/touchpad.

I'm not sure if they all support Miracast, but XBMC will most likely support it. The ATV520 supports UPnP/DLNA out of the box.

I'm not sure if they all come with a remote, when I read the specs of some boxes it doesnt look like the remote is included (Tronsmart S89, 16GB for exemple) :
What's in the box?

• HDMI Cable*1
• USB Data Cable*1
• Manual*1
• USB Cable*1
• Adapter*1

Geekbuying is showing the tronsmart vega s89 in Stock and the elite as well. Now just have to wait two weeks for them to put the box in the mail
