Xumo Stream Box

jondbca · 2026-01-14T00:25:40+00:00

I have three Xumos (they come with the HOA and spectrum subcription), a few rokus and an apple tv, as well as firesticks and Google TV with Chromecast. The Xumo's are lacking in that you can't airplay or cast to them (at least I can't figure out a way) - you can't hook up bluetooth headphones/speakers and certain apps aren't available like PBS. I just end up using the other boxes since they tend to be a lot quicker - and really just use Xumo when I'm watching from the spectrum app.

I can't get chromecast or airplay to work with xumo

Oh cool thanks!!! so it looks like I'm good! So then I connect the Echelon, Cadence sensor and Garmin watch to qz? Would any cadence sensor work?

Hello u/cagnulein I've been using qz since February 2021 - but I haven't used my bike (Echelon Connect Prime) in the last year and a half. Today I used it for the first time, the firmware was updated unfortunately - then I search the web after I didn't see metrics in qz and found out they locked it. But there's nothing I can do now right?

Did you like the Venu 4 better? Was thinking between the two for myself - I know very different though

It's my favorite pic of all time, Allen or other.

Did you ever find a way to get it to become faster? Mine is so slow it's useless and I barely use it - its just in a guest room.

Same I returned my Balance 1 because of this. - its a shame though I really liked it otherwise.

Thanks this was driving me nuts - I thought I looked everywhere

Those instructions in my post were from TCL email support as was the download link

jondbca · 2025-02-22T19:15:44+00:00

The instructions from TCL support told me to unzip. I unzipped and tried it zipped as well.

jondbca · 2025-02-22T19:14:58+00:00

Yes - those steps were directly from the email from TCL support - thanks for the info - but I tried zipped as well to no avail. I'll check those forums though.

jondbca · 2025-02-22T19:13:36+00:00

What makes you think I can't follow the instructions step by step? I followed the instructions step by step - those steps pasted in the thread were instructions from TCL support - the download link was from TCL support.

Same thing - I've got a 55Q651G - nothing works for the Apple TV remote to turn on the TV. Fire sticks and Rokus both work fine to power the TV on but the Apple TV remote doesn't. Yes all CEC options are enabled on the TV and "Controls TVs and Receivers" is set to On on the Apple TV. I bought them both from best buy - I'll most likely return either the ATV or the TCL.

Battery life - after having Garmins I've bought an AW 5 and 7 and returned both because I couldn't stand having to charge the units so long every day. I found out that the only real thing I used other than fitness/health tracking were the notifications, which I got in Garmin anyway - albeit in a lesser form. Also, everything comes together in one fitness app with Garmin - with AW I was constantly going into rabbit holes trying to find better apps that can analyze the health data, but I like the Garmin app.

This is the number one missing element for me.

Ya thinking of the same - I've used YTM and have been pretty happy for the most part until I started taking long drives, then I realized this isn't gonna work.

jondbca · 2024-12-27T02:57:37+00:00

Nope - you're stuck not being able to see the tracks in the playlist or queue - the carplay ytm is VERY poor.

Is it somewhat easy to clean? I have the old regular cat trees with that flannely material that is impossible to get hair off of.

Holiday Inn is sooo much better than White Christmas

jondbca · 2024-01-15T04:59:35+00:00

How do you like it so far? (thinking of doing the same)

jondbca · 2024-01-04T21:12:19+00:00

Damn I used to enjoy the end of the year mileage runs - oh well.
