Thanks, i like your jobs, i from Brasil.

[capelo]

Thank you so much . I'll try it tonight or tomorrow.

BTW, is there any way to backup my FTMC configurations and addons and export on this one?

Also, I use a 3TB external HDD. It was working fine with your A6 ROM. With A7 it requires a special PSU? If so, can you recommend one?

Thanks!

General optimization, should be smoother and faster!

Wonder, what test 7.1.2 SCV1 in AnTuTu (benchmark CPU)

Hello, there is a backup add-on available for Kodi, FTMC, etc. If you look under programs/get more. It is called "Backup", it should be able to back up your add-ons, add-on data, etc. I have used it many times successfully. I don't recall if I used it on FTMC, but I am fairly confident that it will work.
Just make sure to set backup location to something other than the box, like a flash drive or SD card.

BidonX99 You can see the test by trebor. I'll also install on my Y8 tonight and do the bench tests.

A few quick test using Custom Rom

RISCy Dude Thank you! I'll try it tonight

Does this box not work with IPTV channels on h265? Tnks.

Hi with this ROM strangely I can't use properly my air mouse. For example, on YouTube App, if I'm using the cursor with the accelerometer I cannot select any video. That also happens on other apps. With the YouTube App from PlayStore it does not happen. Also, with the YouTube App from the ROM (the TV one) I cannot search as it only works with voice search.

Well the included YT atv it only works ok with the default remote or use the directional keys in your airmouse, if it dont work with yours just mix the usage of default remote with airmouse only when needed... is what i do...
Search is working just fine just press back when is in voice search and it will auto. change back to directional keys text mode search

Do you have free h265 iptv streams to test the problem and what app are you using?
I also want to test on my devices io see it works or see if I also have a problem.
Thanks
