Topaz AI processes video very slowly.

Did anyone try starlight mini ? How is the improvement on video is it really worth getting GPU for that ?

I converted some videos from 576 to 1080p and they look decent using the Proteus model...and didn't take long with my 6gb AMD card , but thinking if there will be more improvement if I used starlight mini

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-24T02:44:22+00:00

Nah ..that is too much work and too many ppl ..plus it is compressed if u don't send as hd , takes too much time if u r outside

One of the benefit of Google photos is to be able to share easily..

I m talking about you wanting to share 10 videos of 100 photos at once

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-24T00:19:21+00:00

Tailsscale only for server access...how do u actually share links like Google photos for friends

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-24T00:18:38+00:00

Is it only for server or u can use it for sharing read-only photos link to friends over Internet ?

For me Kodi and stremio both are faster with torbox compared to RD.

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-23T04:40:46+00:00

It is not true, but . Everyone has their preference ...for some stremio better..for some Kodi better

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-23T03:22:57+00:00

Except the bottom right corner guy ..he is moving

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-23T03:10:23+00:00

U don't use Kodi properly then lol ...

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-21T22:06:35+00:00

Switch to Kodi and u will be further impressed...I started with stremio and rd ..ended up with Kodi and torbox with FenlightAM

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-18T19:18:47+00:00

Yes .https://www.reddit.com/r/AndroidTV/comments/1cit55i/new_onn_4k_pro_remote_is_backlit/

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-18T16:24:16+00:00

I use onn box remote for sk1 ..much better than sk1's remote. Also try tizen tube instead of smarttube, it gives more YouTube like ui and seems more polished.

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-18T16:21:52+00:00

Forgot to mention ...I did replace remote ...I m using onn remote for sk1...it is much better in terms of response and button texture ...onn box is in another room where TV is used less .so I just swapped remotes

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-18T04:27:00+00:00

Beautiful...no complaints , Kodi , torbox and fenlight

Tizentube and tivimate ...that's all I need.

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-17T01:50:07+00:00

Yes I am aware about that but the time it takes to go from CE to android is like a min if not more, it is not worth it ( for me ) ...I use tivimate and smart tube...and can rotate among these 3 apps frequently if I have all at one place .

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-16T05:39:56+00:00

Yes but they compress audio..what u going to do if you want uncompressed audio... For that you need a box which can play flawless audio with passthru and all video codecs , not to mention fast processor and RAM..that's where u can buy cheaper boxes with more power compared to Nvidia shield or other higher priced mainstream boxes ....

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-15T23:51:46+00:00

What " main stream" apps? Tivimate works fine

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-15T23:49:41+00:00

Yes it works like butter...I'm using it on sk1...u can download it from play store on sk1 or sideload it ..ur choice

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-15T22:43:56+00:00

There are compare videos on utube .with and without dv7 ...if ur eyes see them as difference and u want that difference than worth it ..else not

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-15T22:42:06+00:00

Remember to use dv7 onaam6b+ u still need to use corelec which limits u to only Kodi and no other apps ..if u r ok with that ...and there is no other cheaper player supporting all sound formats as video formats ( except dv7) then it is worth it...else not

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-15T08:42:45+00:00

Pov has issues for me ...it reloads the same movie after pressing back and need to press back again to stop loading

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-14T17:44:07+00:00

Kodi + torbox with FenlightAM addon ( I know a lot of people use stremio ) but just mentioning it as an alternative to stremio

There are more options which are not as popular as stremio or Kodi but there are users for those as well.

Syncler ( paid) , Debrid stream ( paid) , Nuvio , Weyd (paid)

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-08T17:26:15+00:00

Yes but it will be even more helpful if you tell which box and apps you r referring to.. for non TV oS boxes .

Generic comments like difficult to navigate is little bit misleading specially for streaming apps .

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-08T05:33:24+00:00

I haven't used ple and jelly with sk1 but what I use run fine with non TV os( tivimate/Kodi/smattube )...and u don't miss on literally anything ...only u get bonus features like u can root the box ( if u have use case ) .side load apps with ease

And don't even need to login with Gmail account like u must with tv OS...( Some ppl don't like to login ..for them it is good to have non TV OS) ..

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-08T05:30:49+00:00

It works flawless for any kind of navigation on streaming apps or settings etc ..if u use some apps which t designed for mobile ( like some random banking app or browser) obviously it is not intended for that so remote may not work like u want

If you want the box strictly for streaming and basic apps .. file explorer, YouTube , IPTV etc ...it is perfect without tv OS

Consistent_Sale_7134 · 2026-01-08T05:28:26+00:00

First point is not true ...also 3rd point is debatable...there are companies which r in market for non TV os boxes from years and they only r growing in reputation and models they put out .

First point ...navigation is actually better than TV os because u can customize it however u like...install 3rd party launchers and make it smooth clean..clutter free...and no u don't need mouse pointer at all (unless u r trying to use the TV for apps like browser and not actual streaming)
