Any Experience with this mecool box

I have one, wanted to have a box that does Freesat, Saorview, Plex, Netflix and IPTV.

This does the job, I am running custom firmware that I found on Freaktabs (I think). I have standard android but it also comes with Android TV custom firmware.

The DTV app for Saorview and Freesat isnt the most exciting but it does the job.

Any other questions let me know!

Thanks for your reply. Where did you buy it, can it be bought in Ireland. I'm not well up on this is it necessary to change the firmware.
Also when you say the app for saorview and satellite isn't great what do you mean. Is it easy to negotiate and is difficult to change between satellite and saorview.
Is there a full epg or just now and next. What app do you use for IPTV and does that run well on the box. Sorry for all the questions.

I bought it from Gearbest or one of them type of sites for around €100! Not too sure how the pre-installed firmware is. I mostly buy boxes that has some activity in the custom firmware as it gives the box a longer life!

You were able to manage the channels on Ki and Kii with software on your pc. For some reason this was taken away from the Kiii. So you need to delete the channels you dont want after a sat scan using the remote, which this day and age is crazy! But once you have your channels sorted you are good to go!

There is a full epg for Saorview, but only now and next for Sat. I looked for an addon for a full epg but nothing is out there. I was coming from an Enigma box which has addons for just about everything!

I use the IPTV and Lazy IPTV apps, both work very well on the box!

Feel free to fire any more questions.

Hi Banners,

Does the box put all the Saorview and Freesat channels into one list or do you have to switch tuners to see everything? Do you know if it does Netflix in 4K or HD? Thanks.
