Is the epg bug fixed already. So can we put again in normal instead of utc because previously utc gives no info in infobar ??

And the dns can be already changed in network settings without crashing?

I have already a ticket about this but no reply....

Looks good, thanks !

|REMARK|

Google Playstore and Formuler Market and other apps like NordVPN, etc... screen is bigger (like zoomed) without having changed something in the Image Format, but good...I like it like this.

psillon22 · February 11, 2020 at 8:23 PM

About symbols and font size under settings, this is the answer and stays like it is : The previous UI size created some readability issues due to tiny fonts. This new size improves readability for elderly, visually impaired, or otherwise.

Checkets · February 12, 2020 at 12:46 AM

So it can be reverted back under settings ?I can see just fine so no need for this magnified view 😂

SAM · February 12, 2020 at 12:52 AM Official Post

No you can`t return back, it is now like it is, little bigger.

No more IPTV for me. Everything was fine before the update.

Den123 · February 13, 2020 at 6:33 PM

Check your internet

Den123 · February 13, 2020 at 6:34 PM

Reboot your box

BillC · February 13, 2020 at 10:02 PM

This update working fine here...thanks!

HelloShitty · February 15, 2020 at 12:09 PM

For the last 2 versions, I think my Power saving options don't work. The box stays ON all night. No green light turning to red after some time of inactivity.

paul362 · February 15, 2020 at 6:45 PM

No tv for me either after update can I flash an older firmware then update again ?? its a problem with MOL2 as other apps work fine.

I don't think you can rollback. It must be some other problem. I have the same version and works fine here (Formuler Z8).

I'm sorry, but it looks terrible. I didn't buy a box designed for visually impaired, but it seems that is what I got. At least let us choose ourselves.

sundawg89 · February 23, 2020 at 10:04 PM

For some reason after the software update, I can no longer play movies through PLEX. Has something changed?

Maybe it's not a devs option to prevent rollback. Maybe it's a programming limitation. Maybe they still haven't been able to come up with a secure and stable solution for rolling back.

I also think it should be possible to rollback in case something goes wrong, but what can we do other than asking why is it not possible. And that, I would also like to know.

I would also like to know about other users being able or not to use the Power Settings. In my case, seems that no matter the Power setting I chose, there is no difference. Before the update, if I left the box on for the night, in the morning the box was with the green led turned red. I think this means the box went to Power Off Mode or Stand By mode. As of now, the box never goes to any of those modes. It's always green led.
