PVR Deluxe Set- Top Box & NAS Review – Part 2: Android TV, Debian, and Live TV App. U5. PVR Deluxe is an set- top box with digital TV tuners that runs Android TV 5. I’ve received a model with a dual DVB- T/T2 tuner, and already posted “U5 PVR Deluxe Android Set- Top Box Review – Part 1: Specs, Unboxing, Teardown, and SATA HDD Assembly” a few weeks ago, where I described the hardware, and I inserted a one terabytes 3. I’ve now had time to test the device, but it took much longer than expected due to a partial firmware update issue, which forced me to redo many of the tests. There are also some undocumented features, so if you want to make the most of the device, be prepared to spend time in the forums. U5. PVR Connections, OTA Firmware Update, and Setup Wizard.

What if you could throw a virtual party whenever you want that your friends from around the world could attend at a second’s notice? That’s the idea behind. The box have one USB 3. USB 2. 0 ports, so most people won’t need an extra USB hub, and for the review, I connected a USB 3. RF dongles for my air mouse and gamepad, and a USB keyboard to take screenshots. Click to Enlarge. I also connected Ethernet and HDMI cables, as well as my terrestrial TV antenna to the RF coaxial input of the device. You’ll probably want to connect the RF output to your TV if it comes with a DVB- T2 tuner, but I don’t have a cable for that so I skipped. Finally I connected the 1. V power supply, and pressed the power switch on the back panel to start the device up.
Tv Software Update Server Could Not Be Contact Ed MarkeyMy box had a firmware dated 3. March 2. 01. 7 without OTA support, so I went to the forums to find the latest firmware dated May 4th. I downloaded the file, and proceeded with the firmware update, and everything seems to work with the Android logo and progress bar, as well as a slightly different UI, so I kept proceeding with the review at this stage. But later, as I had used the remote control to take screenshots, and found out all files were there by empty. So I contacted the company via their Google+ community, and found out my firmware was still stuck at March 3. Welcome to Samsung UK. Discover a wide range of home electronics with cutting-edge technology including TVs, smartphones, tablets, home appliances & more! Note: Your browser does not support JavaScript or it is turned off. Press the button to proceed. The company gave me a new firmware file dated May 2. I first copied to my SATA hard drive to complete the update, but after going through the procedure, no change, so I repeated the steps by copying the file to one of the partition of my USB hardware, and it went through probably. They also told me that I could install the Linux part via OTA, which I did. But wait a minute. What is it for exactly on this box? Answer: Plex media Server accessible via Box. IPAddress: 3. 24.

Asterisk voice server etc. Similar to Synology NASThey call this “Android Over Linux (Ao. L) ” and it allows to run both Android TV and Debian apps. I’ve quickly tried to login to SSH, and you indeed access to an ARM Debian machine. Linux localhost 3. U5. PVR should not be accessible directly from the Internet, but it’s still not ideal. Asking users to set usernames and password right after installation would be beneficial. People who know can easily change the default password as they wish. The support guy on G+ (William Tedy) also went on with some other Android features that I was not all aware of, and you may read about them on Google+ as the list is rather long, and due to time constraints I won’t test it all, especially Wio GPS board is looking at me with its big beautiful eyes (antennas) asking why I’m not taking care of it yet. For the very first boot, you’ll be asked to Select a Home app. Going with Home Screen will bring you to the default launcher, while Setup Wizard will guide you through the first time setup. I’ve selected Setup Wizard and Just once to check how useful it would be. You’re first welcomed and asked to select your language. Click to Enlarge. Then you can select you network. If you are using Ethernet with DHCP, you don’t need to change anything, but if you prefer Wi. Fi you can configure it here. Click to Enlarge. The next Windows will let you sign- in to your Google account. That’s where I found out the air mouse would not always work here, as while I could type the text, clicking on Next would do nothing, and I had to use the IR remote control, or switch to remote mode on the air mouse instead. Once the Google Account is completed, the Setup is finished. So it was only minimal, and you may still have to setup the rest of the device in the Settings and Live TV app. U5. PVR Android TV, Settings, and First Impressions. You’ll then be directed to the launcher, and to my surprise it was Android Leanback launcher, and as we’ll see below the box is running Android TV, as opposed to just Android as on most TV boxes on the market. Click to Enlarge. I had a pretty bad first impression of Leanback launcher, as it included some “recommended” videos that I did not care at all for, including some with fairly disgusting thumbnails. The screenshot above is for the older firmware, and it seems the company has now disabled recommendations and it just shows “Some recommendations are hidden. To enable, go to Settings”. I’ll show how to enable/disable this a little later. The new firmware also have some extra icons and different pre- installed apps. There’s a row of icons with some common apps which can be deleted, added, and moved as required, and the last row included two settings app: ATV settings (Amlogic settings app) and Settings (Android settings), as well as Network, Quick. Clean and Power icons. The former shows “unknown SSID” as I’m using Ethernet. Click to Enlarge. The list of pre- installed apps is shown above, and you’ll notice Kodi is not there. We’ll see why later. Options are pretty much the same as on other boxes except there’s a Ethernet/Wi. Fi menu on top of the network menu, as you can use both Ethernet and Wi. Fi at the same time. HDMI CEC is enabled by default, which may not be the best idea, as it may confuse some people, who don’t understand why their TV will turn off when they turn off the box. The HDR1. 0 option just enable and disable HDR support, something I cannot test since I’d need a new 4. K UHD TV with high dynamic range support. The Color Space menu will allow you to switch between RGB4. YCb. Cr. 44. 4, YCb. Cr. 42. 2, etc. I did not need to use this. The second row has a Home Screen menu, which you can enter to change Leanback launcher behavior via two menu: Recommendation row and app and games row. Click to Enlarge. I just disabled everything so I don’t need to get annoyed by videos thumbnails in the launcher. You can always enable sources that are useful to you, and disable others. The Settings icon redirects to Android TV settings with pretty much typical options. SAMBA Service has been added and enabled by default without password, but you can add your own password if needed. The Home menu allows you to switch between Leanback and Live TV app for the launcher. Beside starting live TV automatically, we’ll see the later is perfectly usable as a launcher since you can access apps from it. Which launcher would prefer depends on your main use case. If you mainly like to watch online videos from You. Tube and other services, then Leanback might be good for you, while if you are mainly watching live TV over DVB- T/T2, live TV may be a better choice. Since I lost all screenshots taken with the remote control due to the firmware issue, I only have storage data at the end of the review. We can still see 1. GB space is available to the user out of the 1. GB flash, and at the end of the review, I still had 8. GB available. The bottom of the settings also has some extra menus for System Upgrade and Advance options (Color Space, and HDR mode selection: SDR/Dolby/HDR1. Auto). Click to Enlarge. The About set- top box section shows the model number is “BADA” and it runs Android 5. Linux. 3. 1. 8. 2. Hisilicon Hi. 37. CV2x processor. The Build numbers shows the firmware is also running “Internal Linux”. Google Play Store is different on Android TV, and more suitable to the TV experience thanks to larger icon and fonts. Click for Original Size. The downside of that is that the store will filter apps, and only show apps made for the big screen and compatible with Android TV. So for example, I could install ES File Explorer, and Kodi, while Antutu would not show in the list. I find it ironic that ES File Explorer is considered TV- friendly, as it’s a total pain to use with the remote control. What you gain in convenience, you may lose in terms of security, so only install apps you trust. The IR remote control works well and I tested range up to 1. I could also use the IR learning function to program some of my TV keys (volume, power. As with other TV boxes with tuners, using the IR remote control is not really optional, as you’ll need the keys in the live TV app. I’ve also noticed Android TV did not always accept clicks from my MINIX NEO A2 Lite air mouse, so I had to revert to remote control mode. Power handling is a bit different from other devices. The remote control only allows you to go in and out of standby, and if you want to go into power off mode, you’ll need to use the mechanical switch at the back, after going into standby. You can only reboot by using the Power button in the launcher. I measured U5. PVR power consumption with a power meter in different configuration: Power off (SATA HDD) – 0. Watt. Standby (SATA HDD) – 1. Watt. Idle (SATA HDD) – 1. Watts. Power off (SATA & USB HDD) – 0. Watt. Standby (SATA & USB HDD) – 1. Watts. Idle (SATA & USB HDD) – 1. Watts. That standby power consumption is pretty, but there’s a good reason for it: U5 PVR continue to act as a NAS when in Standby mode contrary to product based on Realtek RTD1. Zidoo X9.
