      Hello, sorry I read the various posts but I could not tell if MECOOL M8S Pro + and Mecool M8S PRO L 4K have the same characteristics or what their differences. Can you help me? I can not find complete features.

          Bluetooth game pad model G910 does not work either. Xiaomi Bluetooth remote works great.

          Link for the Bluetooth remote. No voice built into this remote.

            I'm interested in this box, because I see that it allows Netflix in HD.

            Does surround sound work when using Netflix?

                Which box would you choose betwwen the M8S Pro L Mecool M8S PRO Amlogic S912 3GB DDR4 RAM 32GB ROM 5.0G WIFI TV Box Sale - Banggood.com

                and M8S Pro MECOOL M8S PRO L Amlogic S912 3GB DDR3 16GB 5G WIFI 100M LAN Bluetooth 4.1 TV Box Sale - Banggood.com ?

                Does the M8S Pro have widevine for netflix like the Pro L?


                The only difference am seeing is DDR4 and +16GB more storage on the Pro for 15Euros more.

                On the other hand the Pro L looks like it has more support and development on freaktab.

                  The Pro didn't have Widevine L1 last I looked

                  EDIT:

                  Actually, this post shows Pro does have L1 now

                    Are you sure? Cause that makes no sense. I thought all Mecool boxes had Widevine.

                      Must have upgraded since launch.

                        Yes, many new M8S Pro units are shipping with Widevine L1. I've also heard at least one case where Mecool has provided a customer a Widevine L1 update (APK and two .bin files with Widevine and HDCP keys), but it's got to be created specifically for your MAC address. There's no generic updater available.

                      Just got my M8S Pro L running with Magendanz' AndroidTV Rom. I'm happy so far, but sadly there's no working solution Amazon Prime Video yet :-(

                      (Would the Prime Video app work with default (non-TV) Android Rom? just like on Android Tablet/Smartphone)

                      I also wanted to try (dualboot) LibreElec 9 with Kodi 18 alpha to get Amazon Prime Video via InputStream but couldn't get it to boot. I did a "reboot update" via terminal and ended up in TWRP recovery. I'm not 100% sure what to do from there, so I've got two more questions:
                      1. Can this box boot from USB? I didn't see the usb-drive in TWRP. I don't have a SD Card ready but will get one asap
                      2. I keep hearing that Kodi on Android is inferior to Kodi on LibreElec. (stuff like auto-framerate-switching, audio bitstream, ...) Is that true?

                        Prime app is not working on any pro l rom (you can install and run app but app crash when video starts), i have activated prime trial after i get my box to test if you use libreelec you can play only sd since if you select hd video will stutter since its sw and not hw decoded but you can use kodi on android and prime app to get hw decoded hd video
