Anyone using Plex on this box with this ROM? I'm facing (network?!) issues during starting / playback of movies from remote server.
The box is connected via LAN and also the internet connection is fast (50 MBit) and nearly not used, but Plex reports connection issues and stops playback.

I’ keep having an error on Netflix ui-800-3 I tried everything but the error keeps showing up amd on YouTube the screen size it’s really small I have to close and re open the app several times until it works fine. Any ide of how to solve any of this issues?

Recent US series seem to got this errors but Asian series and non-US series seem playable.

It's not a matter of recent productions.
It happens with Breaking Bad, and that's 4/5 years old.
It's a matter of video&audio quality.
Sometimes Breaking Bad is displayed as ULTRA-HD 4K, sometimes HD, but it never works.

A possibile workaround could be a HDMI Splitter, someone in another forum bought this one for a Xiaomi MI Box

I'm buying a similar one here in Italy, and I will try with that.

Last but not least.
Try to run the test patterns: in my case none of them as worked, and after a couple of seconds the video freezes with the tvq-pm-100 (5.2.5) message.
Have a try and let me know please.

Ciao dall'Italia!

I suggest to downgrade the version. I do it last week.
Check the post of Chiel_78..

I tried downgrade to many vesions but still not working.

FYI. Not all movies/series get this errors though. Recent US series seem to got this errors but Asian series and non-US series seem playable.

It was already PCM.
I tried to change to HDMI RAW but still the same.
I'm going NUTS.

Hello, can someone please tell me how to update from Changelog (20171216) to Changelog (20180706)?

I constantly get error Netflix tvq-pm-100 (5.2.5) on most of the tv series.

I'm on the latest build but that Netflix error still occurs. I thought I was alone in this situation.

Hope someone can fix this.

1. I know that to have 5.1 in Netflix's App I have a DD+ receiver. Now I've linked the box to my OLED 55EG9A7V and the TV to my sinto throu SPDIF. The Netflix app installed into TV can reproduce 5.1 sounds but the box no. But the OLED can decode the DD+. What is it wrong?

Thanks in advance.

@wrxtasy can you help me? do you think the OLED can't licensed for DD+?
Here the specs: https://www.lg.com/hk_en/tv/lg-OLED55EG9A7

EDIT: LG confirm me that the TV support DD+

Thank you

Thanks so much!

I first flashed using the burning tool;
M8S_PRO+-NMF26Q-20170815.182813.V0321.img


No androidTV
After installing

I then went to system update and used the local update: M8S_PRO+-20170919.150557.V0619-fixed.zip
(Wipe cache and data).
Still no AndroidTV.

Went back and rebooted into recovery, wiped all data. (Install terminal app, type su, type reboot recovery)
And installed the M8S_PRO+-20170919.150557.V0619-fixed.zip again. Still no AndroidTV.

Now i went and installed; update_M8S_PRO+-V0619_TVStock-20171210.zip


from Recovery.
Got AndroidTV back again and HD/Surround sound is working again!
(Maybe i could have skipped the -fixed version..dunno...just happy i got it up and running again).

Only problem i have now is that Netflix, when starting shows the Netflix Logo...and then immediately goes to a black screen....
tried reinstalling, clearing cache and data for netflix etc, nothing helps.

(Btw this is not a black screen when trying to start a movie...i see the netflix letters, and then just a black screen).

Anyone have an idea for this?

There is only one chip in the MS8S PRO+ Amlogic S905X and not the s905w............................................

There is a version of the M8S PRO + with S905W.
