As you say, they're only a 100 baht or so for a learning remote on Lazada. In fact, the ones supplied by Pulse-TV are the learning type - they still have the learning instructions on the back! Please can you say which type you bought - there are dozens of them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteBuffaloATM Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Use True for great Live English Football & Rugby + Nat Geo / History / Discovery Documentaries. Everything else on True is poor…. use Netflix & Amazon for TV Series & Movies.VPN needed for Amazon….. had a TV “box” once before; never again……and “streaming”; just No……… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good grief! Sorry to laugh, but that is one hell of a BIG remote! I just want a simple 21 or 25 key remote that I can hold in my hand! But thanks for the idea - I might use that for one of my computers. ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madmitch Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 If you use an Android Box you need to get a remote mouse. It makes navigation so much easier. Loads on Lazada. Mine has a keyboard on the back which is quite useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetsetBkk Posted September 7, 2021 Author Share Posted September 7, 2021 The actual remote supplied by Pulse-TV has a lot of buttons and they all light up the little red LED next to the green button at the top. But a lot of them have no effect on the set top box that I have found, e.g. the coloured ones at the bottom! So I don't know how many buttons a new learning remote should have! The "OK" button in the middle is flush with the direction buttons around it, so you can't feel where the "OK" button is, and often hit a direction button at the same time. Stupid design! ????

alphason Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 The HK1 box looks good value for the features. One thing I'm not sure about, with this and other boxes, I know they won't play netflix 4K (don't mind that) but will it play HD 720/1080P or only SD. What about Youtube what resolution will that play in, again not bothered about 4K but would be nice to have 720/1080 HD. I know boxes like the Mi and Mecool are certified and will play 4K Netflix but they are more expensive and seem have lower RAM. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you should have taken a gander at my link, "https://bit.ly/3rv6ZDE" as 8K far exceeds 4K! Unfortunately I do not have an 8K source in order to test this claim???? Before you say you were talking about the HK1 I did say to the HK1 poster it was a good choice of CPU. In other words both boxes have the same CPU. The poster did not include a link so who knows if the HK1 claims to play 8K. In case you are too busy to open my link the most important specs are:- What more can you ask for. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen your link thanks, I'm talking about Netflix and Youtube specifically, I know it claims to play other 4K/8K files. Read it in several places Netflix won't run at 4K (eg https://androidpcreview.com/netflix-hd-android-tv-box/ ) unless have a certified box like MiBox or Mecool. Seller said it only plays Netflix in 540P but I have read it can play in 1080P so not sure. I don't need 4K was just trying to understand it all. I'm more interested in Youtube than Netflix so I was wondering if there are restrictions on YouTube or will they play any resolution? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LivinginKata Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Yes, we cancelled all our cable accounts last year (no paying guest). We moved full over some sort of tv Internet box. These cable dish companies must be taking a huge financial hit. New paying guest just fit a 3BB tv box as very portable. Offers much. Guests very pleased. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TropicalGuy Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 TRUE Great for Live English Premier Rugby & Football. Other local Cable is complete rubbish. Never watch western tv shows only NatGeo, Discovery & History Channels, all on TRUE. Use Netflix, Amazon, Disney, Apple for TV series & films. SFX Cinema for Latest Movies. No use for these unreliable streaming “boxes” …….had once, never again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
