• Are there any decent android tv boxes that can power a 2tb hard drive and can install core elec to rom?

  It's a lite version of kodi like libreelec https://coreelec.org/ It does have a list of chipsets it's compatible with but wondered if anyone on here was using it with an android box without any issues. Source: 10 months ago

• How many widgets are you running with Arctic Horizon 2?

  Coreelec on the Beelink GT King 2 and Khadas VIM4 was about 40s but still acceptable. Source: about 1 year ago

• 4K Remux and dolby atmos and DTS X - which media player to install?

  TV's won't output multichannel lossless audio, only compressed audio codecs or stereo PCM. You need an external device for multichannel lossless audio. The Shield TV, tube or pro, is the only Android TV device that will output multichannel lossless audio. The Fire TV Cube 3rd Gen or a custom CoreELEC box are other options that will also do this. The CoreELEC box is the cheapest solution but requires some... Source: about 1 year ago

• Hey guys I have a old android box (x96 mini) that I’d maybe like to try and set up hopefully to play some n64 games, is there a good tutorial or some website out there to help do that or does anyone here have any information?

Typically all you do on these is flash an image to a MicroSD card, copy an appropriate dtb for CPU/RAM config and place it renamed on the root of the MicroSD, pop it in, and hold the reset button (which can be hidden, such as in the back of the 3.5mm AV port so have a paperclip handy) and keep it held while you plug in the box and it should boot.

  Put CoreELEC on it. You can find it here: https://coreelec.org/. Source: over 1 year ago

• Ask HN: What are some promising decentralised, P2P streaming protocols?

  The pirate scene for sport event streaming is accessible through: * Ad-ridden, dubious websites with a streaming widget, which have a terrible user experience and are a single point-of-failure (servers get taken down routinely) * Acestream (https://acestream.org/), which is a proprietary streaming protocol on top of BitTorrent, available only via a closed-source, unaudited server. Very shady, but works somewhat... - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Make work Acestream in Fedora

  Go to https://acestream.org/. If doesn't load, most probably your ISP is blocking it, then use Tor browser. Source: about 1 year ago

• Web3 Can’t Fix the Internet

  Acestream Uses the BitTorrent protocol to stream video, which is pretty neat. Not sure how effective that can be wholesale, as it’s speed and therefore quality would depend on having a big enough concurrent network. It’s been around a while though. Source: over 2 years ago
