Hi rz514 i also just bough this box. It comes already pre-rooted but either way i would like to know its firmware to play with it.

The thing is video playback is choppy at best, specially higher quality videos. Live TV streaming in Kodi suffers from the same problem. I don't get it as specs should be good enough to run such videos.. Internet is not an issue (160MB with ethernet cable). The same video and live TV streaming play just fine on my laptop..

Contact the seller and see if they have a link to box software?

I tried, but the seller cannot send by email because firmware is too big, and cannot provide a link. I am asking him if he can put it on CD\key and ship it to me but it seems he is not very cooperative

My leelbox m9s works fine, except for a very weird issue it has that makes it hard to enjoy.

I first noticed on youtube... no video would play...the app would open and I could see thumbnails, comments, etc. But after selecting a video it would not buffer and play. Internet was not the problem, since other apps could stream video. Later I realized that if I waited for EXACTLY 5 minutes, the video would start. I noticed the same behaviour on a few other apps.. I click on the link and have to wait 5 minutes for the playback to start. I already did a factory reset without success. Luckily ogyoutube works fine. But I still can't get other apps to work .

Anyway. .. I think a new firmware can fix this issue. If you guys find it please let us know.

rz514,

Can't he upload it? There is a bunch of web sites to upload it for free...

after many back and forth between the seller, who did not want to help out for firmware, finally i was able to push him into linking the firmware.
