Game Review:

We install some big 3d games to test the game function on Tronsmart mk908ii, all of them are running smooth, and I never met the reboot problem in my long time test, so i think the cooler system in tronsmart mk908ii is really good. here are some screenshot for my test games, i use the G910 Bluetooth Gamepad to play:

 

Modern Combat4:Zero Hour

Shadowgun:

Riptide-GP 2

XBMC:

We test with this XBMC VERSION, working very well on my Tronsmart MK908ii, should add the libstage already, there is no problem to play 720p video, but if you play 1080p smoothly, still should use the external player, such as MX player;

Youtube:

Use the youtube version which download from Google play directly, watch videos without problem, and can have full screen:

Netflix, still use the google play downloaded version, everything is fine:

Webcam support, we test with logitech C170 webcam, there is no problem to work with Tronsmart MK908ii. so skype video chat is also no problem with Logitech C170.

External USB Hard Driver also support, my test device is Seagate 1TB HDD, both FAT32 and NTFS are supported;

Wifi display function is working , we tested with nexus 4 and xiaomi smartphones, however, we know the samsung smartphone don’t support, please notice, if you don’t know how to use the miracast function, see here

EhomeMediaCenter is built in Tronsmart MK908II, you can use your smartphone to control this device, also with this app, your tronsmart mk908ii will support DLNA, you can push your smartphone video,photos,music to your TV with this app.

 

About root, Tronsmart MK908ii come with rooted, so you don’t need to worry how to root, you can install the droidmote or other apps which require root access;

    Hello,

    Today I received my mk908II ,everything is great but I have problem with the external hard drive, appears a message "usb mass storage prepared" and then " select files to open.." so I click on that message and nothing appears,nothing appears to see the files on my HDD.
    I reset the mk908II and I even flash the stock firmware you published on 29 august but the result is the same.
    This is a hardware problem or software?
    How can i fix this if is a software problem...can i install on it Finless Rom...?
    Thank you.

    tried my mk908II with Logitech C270, the camera can only work with an externally power usb hub, however Logitech C920 won't work even with the powered usb hub. I got an older Android TV Stick which does work with C920 however it was too slow to work with (that is why I bought MK908II...)

  12. Leo

    I tried to use several webcams: Logitech C525 , C615, C920 and the new C930e but even witch a powered USB none of the are working with the Tronsmart MK908II Quad Core TV Stick.
    Is there any webcam that does work?

  13. Eric

    Logitech C170 should work.
