Bought this box on AliExpress, after a rather pleasant experience with a Nexbos A95x some years ago.
I thought Android 10 and air remote would be a nice upgrade. Transpeed proved buggy and troublesome from the beginning, with inability to change homescreen items, random notification sounds while playing back, video freezes after stand by, Google Play horrible integration when it even managed to start.
But the cherry on top was when I noticed that video files are very very dark. So I looked around for a fix. The "play a 4k video and then it will be fine" doesn't work. I found a suggestion to change a parameter inside build.prop from the System folder, I can't access and edit it. Seems to be rooted, no permissions.
To boot, even though my TV is 1080p, both CPU Z and Kodi report working in 720p.
Any ideas what I could do to fix video brightness and resolution? Or should I just chuck the box into the rubbish bin and be done with it...

The box is not rooted and this is the biggest problem.
Tried to install t95 firmware (T95 hast has the same devices and the rom is rooted) but It doesn't boot.

When I am using the Prime, it seems I can only use 1 window at a time.
Example: if I stream from Youtube, and want to check "WiFi analyzer or Speedtest", the stream is interrupted.
Is there a way that the tablet can allow me to have several task running, like in the above example or similar?
Well for that example you listed you can get an app called stickit. It allows you to watch your videos or streams while doing whatever else you want. Its just like a PC when you bring up a movie screen then you can resize it and move it all over tthe screen. For example I can be browsing the web while watching the video in the little screen. You can make screen as big or small as you want. It plays continuously and doesn't stop no matter what you doing. The screen follows you wherever you go until you close it.
Here is screenshot example I just took. Love this app.

Anyway, yeah, there's no stock way to do what you want. Demandarin, that's a great app! I just don't understand why ICS doesn't have such things built in, you'd think they'd be trying to push true multi-tasking at the user's discretion.
Seems to me that Google's just not trying to replace PC's like I'd like them to. I love messing around with my x86 Honeycomb (beats the hell out of Windows 8).

Wow! Thanks for the tip. I thought I was going to have to wait for Cornerstone for something like this. Does Stickit work with any stream app or site?
I noticed this the first day I had my phone, but thought it was just a fluke or some new touchwiz feature akin to the "linens" that iOS 5,6 had. But my note 3, white now on full stock MJ4, never rooted or tampered with yet seems to have some banding and aberrations with displaying medium grays. I have attached a screenshot that you can download and try for yourself. I am positive this is a bug, and with my limited knowledge I feel it is a software issue more than a hardware one that will hopefully get fixed.
Steps to really see the problem:
Download my screen shot on to your Note 3 (or open chrome browser, remove all windows so it is the gray background with the product logo as attached, then screen shot it yourself)
Do the following in a dark environment to see it best. (please)
Open the screenshot in gallery.
Zoom into it and pan around.
Play with different brightness settings and see if the banding with grays is more evident.
Turn on screen rotation, rotate screen.
Zoom and pan on the same screenshot in landscape view to see that the banding is apparent still only on the Y-axis, proving it was not part of the image.
I attempted to capture this on video and even scan it in my scanner, but it wasn't obvious like it is to my eyes. I want to know, does this affect other people's note 3s? If so I won't care as it really isn't a problem. But if it's just my handset, then I want to get it swapped out instead of risking a bad screen or any other on board hardware. I am most worried because the problem is different day to day and the banding seems to be greater towards the bottom of the screen
If you did all this, thank you!

Same issue here as well as my girlfriends N3. If you mess around with the different display settings (dynamic, professional photo, etc) it increases it or decreases it. I've only noticed this with Chrome however. I will boot up my Evo 3D to see if it does it on there as well as my 2k12 N7.

Hi everyone,
I've noticed something annoying : Media control doesn't work at all on lockscreen with Chromecast. Include apps like YouTube, Netflix, Disney+ ...
Somehow, volume control works fine with the physical buttons, but I can't pause/play/previous/next.
Media control works fine if not casting, for example when playing Spotify on my phone, control on lockscreen is fine.

Saw several people complaining about this on Samsung community, but didn't find any solutions... Seems it appeared since OneUI 3.0
Does anyone have the same concern ? Did you resolve it ?
I don't know about chromecast since I don't use it, but I get the same issue when I play music through "OK, Google".
Everytime I use "ok, Google, play (song, music, playlist) on Spotify", the lockscreen controls don't work to play, pause, skip and go back. I thought it was something to do with Spotify, but they could not help me with it.
So I guess it must be something on samsung or Google.
Saw several users with this problem, and I think it might have the same cause as yours, but haven't seen a fix for it yet.
Yeah, got exactly the same issue and there are even some posts about it on Samsung forums and reddit. Tried to get help via the Samsung members app but they say they can't see any issues on my system logs and the screen capture. I start to hate Samsung for their really bad support.
Same issue here, Samsung tab A (sm-t510)
Ever since the android 11/ oneui3 upgrade.
Very fustrating. Only fix is to turn on the media "music" controls on the lock screen, tap the clock, get the controls. Also very occasionally tapping pause/forward etc works, even grayed out...

I'm on my new 'Note' the S23 Ultra and have watched all the 'do this first' type YouTube settings videos etc., but I have a video issue.
On my laptop I use Windows Movie Maker, basic but easy for quick editing clips, and for more pro stuff I use DaVinci Resolve, however neither program will open my most recent videos?
I've tried different settings with the same result and have attached a photo of the details of a file that does open and one that doesn't, but I'm not sure what it's telling me? They all play fine in VLC Media Player.
I'm far from an expert at all this, and at 72 this year maybe it's just all getting beyond me, but any suggestions or help appreciated.
The one that works is from my S22 Ultra, the other the S23!!
Many thanks.

Check the error messages in Windows Event Viewer.

I always save in mp4, don't think that bit has changed?

They are all MP4 so shouldn't be an issue, but after further research and going through every setting both the Hi-Bit rate (whatever that it) and the High Efficiency setting were on.
Not sure what either are but hopefully that'll be the answer.
Now I just need a way to convert them back to normal settings or I'll lose several good wildlife videos

Yeah based on the file size it looks like the file type.
