Aaaand another streaming device is retired.

This one was a surprise actually, since it’s actually a REALLY good unit. But its little brother the Onn 4K Plus, at $20 cheaper, is just a bit faster and better. I might Lazarus the Pro elsewhere in this house at some point in the future, but for now it goes into the device morgue.

Finally figured out how to lock SDR mode only, on the 4K Plus. Each time I tried to set it up via the normal method, apps like Plex would just quit out when I started them because they were still trying to change to HDR mode but the Onn wasn’t allowing it. I had to force a resolution (not auto-res) then got the option to choose YCbCr 4:4:4 8-bit, did that, THEN went back to auto-res.

I had to insert the digital index finger BEFORE the thumb, in other words.

But we got there. 👌

Walmart’s Onn 4K Plus is official: $30 Google TV media streaming box

For the past few years one of the cheapest 4K-ready media streaming boxes you could buy has been Walmart’s $20 Onn 4K. The company also offers a $50 model called the Onn 4K Pro that has more memory and storage, a faster USB port, and an Ethernet jack.

Now Walmart has introduced a mid-range version that sells for $30. The new Onn 4K Plus actually started to show up in stores earlier this […]

Que faire maintenant ? Assoun, Portes, Jojo, Lordon, Besançenot, Kouvélakis, Bentounsi, Sibony, Bouteldja, Aoussat, ...

On se souvient du vol des résultats des législatives... et cela nous permet aussi de nous souvenir de la non censure du PS qui laisse tranquillement Macron et ses ministres d'extrême centre / extrême droite dérouler leurs politiques antisociales, racistes et anti-écologistes.

Lilbits: Nintendo Switch 2 pre-orders delayed due to tariffs, Onn 4K Plus Google TV Streamer coming soon

This week Nintendo announced that the follow-up to the wildly popular Nintendo Switch is coming soon. The Nintendo Switch 2 arrives in June and sells for $450. It was supposed to go up for pre-order on April 9th.

But you know what else happened this week? The Trump administration announced global tariffs affecting imports from every country around the world, with particularly steep tariffs […]

Bought a UR02 for no particular reason to control my 4K pro box. Here it is next to the original remote. Verrrry similar, both feel amazing in the hand - FAR better than the remote. Some diff buttons. Light grey ones are IR programmable. Everything else can be reprogrammed with or Pro. Got it for just over a buck from as it was a first-time purchaser deal. Could have gotten any of a billion other things. Oh well.

I'm not having much #luck with my #AndroidTV boxes. One Nvidia died after 4½ years, the replacement after 2½ years. Got an #Onn #GoogleTV box after that, and today, after nine months, it's gone into a boot loop. Or more properly, a home screen loop.

When the box is about to get to the home screen, you see gray boxes and rectangles where pictures and text will appear, then the pictures and text do appear, then the screen blanks out for a second, then it goes back to gray boxes as the loop continues. (Tried to upload a clip, but that failed twice.)

What #MediaPlayer should I buy next, expecting it to last five months? #StreamingBox

OK, I've had this #Onn #keyboard for a year or more, and I *finally* figured out how to control (in my case turn off) the lights on the damn thing! For anyone else who, like me, has the Onn keyboard with the 4 keys to the right of the space bar, and would like to disable those lights, here's what you do.
The second key to the right of the space bar is the FN key (not sure what the print on it says, but that's basically what it does.) Press that plus the pause key, the right-hand key in the group of 3 just to the right of the f12 key. You can press that combination to cycle through lighting modes--including the beautiful off setting.

Woot have the Cube gen 3 refurbed for $75. Normally over $100. As a streaming nerd I was tempted, but the 4K Pro box is just so freaking good AND it’s $25 cheaper. Slower CPU but who cares? You use the interface like 5% of the time. I just wish the Onn was smaller. It doesn’t need to have a main unit the size of a double decker sandwich. Cube has upscaling (so does my TV) but that’s apparently nowhere near as good as the ’s.

May buy another Onn this week actually.

A minor but still cool thing about the 4K Pro box is the amount of onboard RAM it has. For example I use KODi a lot but also watch stuff on other apps like YouTubeTV or Prime Video. On the I’m used to flipping between them and having to wait a few seconds as each inits (because it exited running as other apps started). This morning, started the TV and ran KODi and it instantly started. Still in the b/g. Hadn’t exited since the last run. That’s nice. It’s the little things.

After reading the hype, I bought an 4K Pro box from yesterday and hooked it up. Just like the interface a lot more than the one. It has the Google Assistant built into the box itself (ie the streaming unit is a mic as well as a speaker) and the remote is backlit, has a "find" feature and is generally comfortable to hold. I really like it. But I'm going to firesale (see what I did there?) some of my older firesticks now. Finally.

As a heavy user of the original , and a current user of the I'm not sad at all.

makes excellent boxes that are just as cheap and even better built than the ones.

Just sideload and bob's your uncle!

Turns out I got the non-illuminated remote 😞

Oh well, at least it doesn't have the "Free TV" button that does Google-knows what.
