Hi,

Yes, I have a Foscam IP Cam.
I have an old Logitech Webcam somewhere too ??? Really old !
IP Cam is networked via Ethernet and webcam would be USB - No idea if a networked device can be accessed as a mic device the same way USB attached devices seem to work. Does G. Assistant have suitable input options ?

I have a Trendnet IP camera and use the Synology software for it. Synology also has an app that I have installed on my Mecool so I can monitor my exterior of my house. You are correct, I doubt that the IP camera would work directly on this box.

What do you mean GA having suitable input options??? I can control my over head lights from this box using GA. My light switch is a WiFi enabled switch.

Just wondered if there was any way to choose a mic input ? Probably not. Good that a USB Webcam works though. Thanks for the info.

Does this box really have Gibabit Ethernet?
Only get close 100mbps in speed test.
All my other devices in the same network go way beyond that

This device does NOT have gigabit Ethernet.

yeah. didn't read the specs all the way.
weird though. most s912 boxes have gigabit port.
anybody got a good experience using moonlight gamestream with this box?

Is casting works for you guys i have oneplus 2 and have try stock 6.0.1 but also 7.1.2 and 8.0 roms but nothing is working

Nope, that's a known issue. The only time it seems to work is when casting from Chrome.

Hi there,
I am getting stuck while trying to get android installed back to my M8S Pro L. I have thousends of firmware versions downloaded. I copied them with sd burning tool to SD, I entered "reboot recovery" (ssh to the internal installed LibreElec), but nothing happened. It stops on the "mecool" screen without doing anything. What can I do?! The player has no recovery button. The two keys described inside this Threat dont work to start any installation.
When I use the SD card burning tool it makes 2 partitions. The first one is empty inside windows storage managment, the second is with datas. Is that right, should it be like that?!
Please help, Thanks
PS: I dont have a USB cabel with both sides the same end, so I cant use USB burning tool. Since there are holydays I cant buy one.

I did now make my own USB A to USB A cabel through connecting 2 old cables, I always connected 2 same colors. When I connect M8S Pro L to the PC the Mecool boots to internal. The burning tool doesnt regognize it. I tried again "reboot recovery" and i tried several keys on the remote. I dont get it recognized by my computer. I got stuck.


edit: drilled to housing, made a shurtcut to the two reset pins, at the moment it is does format...lets hope the best
