I tried the MX boxes the MXIII and the GT1 and they were both pretty poor, I also tried Wetek hubs which were actually decent enough considering they were only 1gig boxes, but now if anyone wants one, it's the MiBox3 all the way, but only because I can get them for less than 75 euros delivered in bulk, but if I was still in Ireland, I'd probably be getting Fire TV sticks instead, they're just hard to come by (cheaply) downunder.

I have super broadband so not too sure what the problem. Based in Cork - if anyone knows anyone that maybe take a look send me PM! Thanks.

You can adjust the picture (and sound) settings on your box and telly, but I'm guessing that it's the source (especially if it is from a free source, picture is always crap on those).

I got over that problem by putting the box through My Oppo amp Receiver. Someone on another internet forum said their HDMI inputs on their Philips TV was permanently damaged by the green screen issue. Luckily this has not been the case for me.
