Thanks for the info.. I try to be as honest and transparent as possible when making these review videos. I've tested literally dozens of streaming devices on that TV and never had that happen before. I ended up trying it on another TV and didn't have the problem, but since most people won't know how to do the things you mentioned, I felt they should see it "as is".
I experienced similar issue not only with Netflix but also with youtube where the screen flickers when i browse through the video titles. I have a 2017 Sony Bravia KD-65X8500E TV.
Thanks! Great review. I think these TV box manufacturers are missing a trick with not making the TV box a wireless phone charger, it looks like it's crying out to be one. Shame eh Bob?
Hola, en relación a lo que mencionas del parpadeo en Netflix en el minuto 5.53, prueba de desactivar en el Mecool la opción HDR, en mi caso me pasó en una plataforma de juegos y me hacía lo mismo cuando recorría la lista de juegos, desactivé el HDR y se resolvió y la imagen sigue siendo muy buena.
I bought it recently and it is the best box ever had but it has a minus ... I can't delete any file from my usb. Mecool has locked the read/write permission to external storage devices.....
Thanks for the review. I got one and I like the way it has plenty of memory. However, I used downloader to download a zip file to copy to an external usb drive, to install in my kodi build. I learned that apparently because is Android 11, I can't move from Downloader App to an external drive. I installed XFiles, and other file apps with no success. Any solution is welcome. Thanks.
Mecool KM2 PLUS HDR error My device is always on HDR setting but HDR is not working on TV and Netflix and other HDR movie file. I Notice that when KM2 plus started it is confused with Dolby vision and Change to 4k normal resolution. Any help?
Hmm. I haven't seen that problem myself. Can you send me an email with pics of the screen showing the problem? I'll try my best to help. Info@cordcuttersli.com
I noticed a comment below indicating the MeCool box will not play movies/TV from a USB drive? My intention was to not only use the box for streaming services but to play movies/TV from an external Hard Drive. Will I be able to play content from a USB connected hard drive?
You did this whole video and didn't even get to the non tv controls issue. It's now Dec 2023..and it still hasn't received an update to fix this issue. I just bought the device a week ago...was disappointed that when trying to set up the tv with the box It failed to connect to the Google server...3x I'm a row. That's enough for me to know that yes android tv will be the exchange for the firesticks if the Vega changes the game....but it won't be with this device. Nvidia..here I come...I will need 3!! Ouch.
Hi Jim, I honestly haven't heard about the "non TV controls " issue. Can you shoot me an email with details and perhaps a link (not allowed here), with info on it? I'm actually receiving a new MeCool device to review next week, and I will address it there (and give you a shoutout for bringing it to my attention). 👍 info@cordcuttersli.com
In case you were wondering, I saw your question yesterday, it was removed by Y0utube, not me. Yes, this device will perform fine. If you do decide to buy one, I'd appreciate you using my link and discount code (in video description) thanks!
Hello. A help who knows. I have a problem with Mecool KM2 plus. Yesterday I was watching a series and I pressed pause to continue it today. And a while ago I went to see her and the TV box was closed without having closed it yesterday, I had left it open. I unplugged all the cables (mouse, internet cable) Nothing. It does not open. Only a blue light on the box lights up, nothing else Can you please tell me how to open it? How to do it hard reset?
That's very odd. If you unplugged and replugged in the power cord, maybe your TVs input changed from the HDMI port you connected it on? Use your TVs remote to go through all the HDMI inputs. Let me know how you make out.
@Angels Wings I'm not sure about the KM2 Plus and can't check because I gave mine away, but some of these boxes have a hidden button inside the AV port. If you carefully/gently push a toothpick or matchstick in the AV port (with the power off) See if you feel a click like a button approximately 1 inch inside. If you do, that's the reset button. Hold that in while plugging the power.in to get into restore mode. Then use the remote to scroll down to "erase and factory reset ". If you don't have that button, (for example my KM7Plus doesn't), I don't think there is another way if you can't get a display. I have asked my contacts at MeCool. If I get a better answer, I will let you know. Good luck!
"Buyer beware" is always good advice when it comes to those services. I suggest going with one that's been recommended by someone you know and trust. Unfortunately, we can't get into details on that here on YT.

Thank you for your review. How would you compare the KM2Plus with the firestick 4KMax?
thank you for your great review, help to make decision to buy one no regret. you make my day. cheers buddy
The Netflix screen flicker can be solved by turning off auto play preview on netflix website or turning off HDR policy on the tv box display settings.

Are you still experiencing the same issues? Have you found any solution?
Thinks the stuter is caused by Hz screen rate,try 1080 60hz
Thanks! Great review.

I agree Tony! It looks like a cell phone charger, it feels like a cell phone charger, but it doesn't work like a cell phone charger! LOL
Whether dolby true hd, atmos, dts x are supported for content from pen drive?

Please help me with my device mecool km2 plus how can I reset it there's no button to reset it
support live tv or not?
BUT you can't write movie files to that USB thumb drive due to Storage Access Framework issue!!!
You can watch movies from a usb drive but not to delete them. Other than that you can copy them from usb to internal storage.
@@Tsigarinho That is disappointing limitation which you don't have with firestick
@@ynyslochtyn it's not a big deal. I can delete anything via PC but Mecool should have left that option enabled.

I have bluetooth sound issues with Mecool. Does anyone know if the Walmart Onn has sound issues?
I noticed a comment below indicating the MeCool box will not play movies/TV from a USB drive? My intention was to not only use the box for streaming services but to play movies/TV from an external Hard Drive. Will I be able to play content from a USB connected hard drive?
Did you finally buy it? Could you play movies?
You did this whole video and didn't even get to the non tv controls issue.

It plays Atmos from Kodi? Or Netflix?
Yes, this device supports Dolby Atmos :)
I am happy with my recent purchased NVIDIA Shield 🤩
I love the shields 🛡!
They are great but a bit outdated for the money.
for iptv internet channels will be with high quality picture compare to istar IPTV box?
In case you were wondering, I saw your question yesterday, it was removed by Y0utube, not me.

Good video 👍🏻
I'm so glad "I" liked it! 😁
Hello.
A help who knows.
I have a problem with Mecool KM2 plus.
Yesterday I was watching a series and I pressed pause to continue it today.
And a while ago I went to see her and the TV box was closed without having closed it yesterday, I had left it open.
I unplugged all the cables (mouse, internet cable)
Nothing. It does not open.
Only a blue light on the box lights up, nothing else
Can you please tell me how to open it?
How to do it hard reset?
That's very odd. If you unplugged and replugged in the power cord, maybe your TVs input changed from the HDMI port you connected it on? Use your TVs remote to go through all the HDMI inputs. Let me know how you make out.
I've tried all that. Nothing is happening. It's doesn't opened.
How can I make it hard reset? Do you know?
@Angels Wings I'm not sure about the KM2 Plus and can't check because I gave mine away, but some of these boxes have a hidden button inside the AV port.

Good luck!
I've tried too the AV port. But no luck.
Thank you for asking MECOOL for me. Appreciated. When or if you have an answer please let me know okay?
🤔 interesting
agreed!
Does it take other partition format other than FAT32? Like ExFat and NTFS?
I didn’t get the new interface? Why ?
If it doesn't look like the one in the video, check for updates in settings.
@@CordCuttersLI i checked and did the update for it but unfortunately nothing has changed 😢😢 ?? Any solution
How to set date and time
It should set itself automatically if connected to Internet, but if not you can change it settings (gear top right) and preferences/Date & Time
Max sd card
NO HDR or HDR+ or HDR10 works with Netflix and this BOX, No Support for Dolby Vision (No Licence) Comments was deleted by Mecool says it all.
Very ordinary box
😁😁😁👍👍👍
Please warn people not to buy the Blitzen iptv service it's a scam
