Hello, im no expert but I believe I got stuck with a few of these similar boxes. They will run fine if you don't load them with massive amounts off apps leave at least a couple of hundred mb`s space on the system.I prefer beyond xbmc 3.4 which can be found on here. Good luck.

Have you allowed for the space that the operating system is using?

It is 8GB Nand flash space.
System.img(Android 4.2/4.4) can take up 400MB-1GB
Boot.img takes up 16MB
Kernel takes up 16MB
Userdata.img can take up 1-2GB, This is all the installed apps and their data.
User.img takes up the rest of the space left over(in you case probably the 4.3GB) is empty space where you can copy files to, not install apps.
You can change these sizes by editing the parameter file you dump from the firmware.

Hi guys had this box for about a week now, I've put 3.4 beyond xbmc on it, I've noticed when playing films form ice films about 20 or so mins the picture freezes but the films continues to play audio, and the box powers it self down, any one else come across this, thanks
