Thnaks guys for the feedback,so everyone is backing the himedia boxes, so i guess i will take a chance and get the himedia h8 plus and hope it works, not too keen on the mi box looks too simple for me, the h8 plus is available for $93 from aliexpress, one more thing are we able to order off aliexpress using icici debit card
Its not h8 its h8 plus,also howz himediaq30 its there for $109Q5 you are getting for 130 USD, so for like 35 usd approx you are getting a better machine, H8 is a very old model, so check if firmware updates are there for this model.
Most of them play only 8 bit, for future proof need to check if they would play 10bit.
Its not h8 its h8 plus,also howz himediaq30 its there for $109
I am just saying if the difference is just 20-30 USD go for Q5, rest H8 Plus should also get the job done ....
Buy a mi box 4k international us version its the beast of all never hangs plays every format even 40 gb 4k hevc movies without any lag you can easily connect mi game controller and pay best games of android remote voice search also works very well it will cost around 8-9 k with duties and all but its the best i am using it
Thanks for the reply, i am not interested in any other features all i need is a player which will play h.265 videos, with full 5.1 audio or dts hd ma etc, so are you playing your videos is it in kodi or are you using mx player to play videos(is it possible? or vlc mayb?) i believe you are using an external hdd coz my intention is to use my 1tb extrenal hdd with this box, also have you connected it to your receiver? if not could you please connect and check if there are any issues?, your help is much appreciated
1. It plays the h.265 very smoothly.
2. Streams DD .. not tried DTS or MA
3. I use KODI. I have not tried VLC or MX PLayer
4. Tried with USB HDD, Pendrive and Mostly on LAN over ethernet
5. Its very much connected to my Onkyo AVR by HDMI
If movie watching is the sole purpose like mine. Buy this device, cheap and best.
Dont expect it for playing heavy games. You can browse net .
You can try CubeTek Kaiserbaas Full HD 1080p media player.
It's sold by MelodyMedia on Amazon India.
They are the authorised seller for HiMedia media players like Q5/Q10 Pro in India. They are Bangalore based.
I personally use HiMedia Q5 Pro and it's amazing! [emoji846]
