Hi, I buyed M8S PRO L 4k from gearbeast, and i can't use Chrome Cast, look at this video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sqh-AeL1KI8 , anybody have this issue ?

Same problem here.

And all audio freezes for a second every 10 seconds in differents apps (Kodi, VLC, Youtube...)

Has anybody been able to get SPMC to work properly on this box? I can get it to load right after installing, but if I exit out of SPMC, then try to load it again, I keep getting an error and it shuts down. No matter how many times I try to reopen it, I get the error. I have to uninstall it then reinstall it for it work. So of course that's not going to work. Kodi and FTMC work but Kodi has an issue with the mediacoder and SD videos don't work properly with Mediacoder on. But x265 videos don't work properly with Mediacoder off. SPMC and FTMC work just fine with Mediacoder but I'd rather use SPMC... But it's not working. Any ideas?

Is it possible to connect the box via HDMI to my Windows Sony laptop screen instead to TV and watch on laptop? (For the case i dont have an TV screen)

I am playing movies, both x264 and x265 hevc through the android Kodi version and every now and then the box stops working. The image just freezes like that I the only thing I can do is unplug the power cable to get it working again. Is this normal? Or do I have a faulty box and need a replacement?

I'm seeing this too. Fortunately, it's pretty infrequent, maybe once a week. It should be fixed if we switch over from VideoStrong to the Shiningworth base firmware.

Do you think its due to heat? Where can I find the Shinningworth base firmware?

It's only available at this point on my M8S PRO threads, since I don't have Widevine L1 support working yet.

I see. Looking forward it to then!
Do you think that running Libreelec instead of Android Kodi might have a chance to give a better performance and stop this issues?

Question? does everyone that has this M8S PRO L get the issue where the box becomes unresponsive. Blue LED is on but the TV is getting no signal & remote doesn't seem to wake it up? only fix is to pull the power?

Yeah, I get this too. I'm hoping the new 20180205.111652.V0928 OEM firmware will fix the problem.

I have this problem, even running Magendanz's ATV mod. I got tired of unplugging/plugging so I use a voice controlled switch to turn it off and back on. Never figured out what causes it to hang.
