[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lchang.atsoft:
I have noticed a strange issue with the Android 11 version of the firmware. When I use a streaming app like BeeTV (ver 3.4.9AF), the associated video player app HBPlayer (ver 1.1.2AF) fails to download subtitle files from opensubtitles and subscene. No error is given. I also tried FilmPlus (ver 1.7.5AF), which can use another video player app BPlayer (ver 1.2.5AF), but it had the same issue. If I use FilmPlus with Titan Player (ver 1.3.7AF), it can get the subtitles with no problem.

I have tested two brands of boxes (X96Max Ultra and Tanix X4) and different 11.x releases up to the latest 11.10.2 (both AOSP and ATV) and they all have the same issue. I have also tested the official firmware for those boxes and they do NOT have the issue.

I suspect something in the slimBOXtv 11.x releases is breaking the subtitle downloading mechanism in HBPayer and BPlayer. Could anyone shed any light on this? Thanks!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Reaper Man:
Seems app related as opposed to Android 11 issues.

-Opensubtitles seems to require a login to search or download. -- app related setting not coded? Not enabled /disabled.

-Subscene seems to have direct access on the website ... visit and download?

Have you tried other media players/ apps? Web scripts tend to be installed to prevent user agents(programs) from downloads or restrict access.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lchang.atsoft:
I know it's related to the specific media players I mentioned. But it's also specific to slimBOXtv for Android 11. I have tested the same media apps on slimBOXtv for Android 9 (version 9.6) and the official firmware for Android 11. They all had no issues. So SBX 11.x has something unique that is different from both SBX 9.x and the official Android 11 firmware. That's really puzzling.

Hey,

I am new to using slimbox and installed on my Minix u22

What is the difrent between version 9.6 atv en version 42.8 atv ?

Now I have 9.6 and it works well.

only a little bug with screen resolution our HDR settings.

Sometimes I have a cloudy screen after booting.

So I have to change HDR coulor/ double vision setting to solve this.

Take a peek for DNS and/or Ad-block in settings. I recall updates mentioned in system files in new firmwares? Some of which may be blocking your efforts.

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] lchang.atsoft:
Yes, I did take a look. They are all off by default. Plus, they are new settings, only added in 11.10.2. I have tested earlier versions all the way back to 11.4 and they all have the same issue.

I have flashed v11.10.2 on X96Max Plus Ultra device. Everything is working well as expected. However, I cannot transfer my viper4android IRS, DDC, or profiles to the data directory since access is being denied. I understand that there are storage restrictions on Android 10 upward but I am not able to solve this issue even after granting permission. Who has a solution for this?

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] popej:
Thanks for this firmware.

I have tried AOSP 11.10 on Vontar X4, which worked OK, but I couldn't load ATV programs from PlayStore and some programs didn't fit the screen correctly (even PlayStore). Then I have installed ATV version, removed unwanted programs, installed an updated Magisk. Finally I have tried to apply patch 10.11.2. This procedure failed. There were some popups about granting root access for ID 1000 and nothing more.

Other problem is that Ethernet connection is missing after reboot. I have to remove and reinsert Ethernet cable to get connection.

None of above problems existed in AOSP version, so I hope ATV can be repaired.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] eagledipesh:
Hello @SlimHouse , there are couple of lineage based android 10 and 11 ROMs available for S912 devices which boots ok, is it possible to covert these ROMs to ATV?

Cpu when idle/after several "cleaners" still indicted 22% usage.

@SlimHouse (or somebody who knows it):

actually i have the slimBOXtv-Version 9.6 installed on several boxes and then the patch 9.6.4 from the „UpdateSBXtv“-Folder where i downloaded the patch-file.

My slimbox settings show Version 9.6.4 and everything is working fine.

Now my question:

when the next update appears, let´s say the slimBOXtv-Version 9.7 with the patch 9.7.4 for example,

can i install directly the patch 9.7.4 from the „UpdateSBXtv“-Folder or must i install first (with sd card or usb burning) the rom 9.7 and afterwards the patch 9.7.4?

I hope, i can install immediately the patch then and it is not necessary first to install the new rom-version with burning tools!
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] PowderLinux:
you want the vpn to be turned off on both, tv box and smart phone.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] PowderLinux:
you need to do a full install for new releases currently (ex: 9.6 to 9.7).

this could change in the future tho.. but for now, the patching method only works with point releases (ex: 9.6.4 to 9.6.5).
