So what is a M8 and what can it do for me ?
Its an internet TV receiver. If you are familiar with the Android operating system that is on phones and tablets, thats what this little box runs on. Android 4.4 "KitKat". It has some pretty decent specs for a TV receiver :
CPU : ARM Cortex - A9 Quad Core
GPU : Mali 450 Octo Core
RAM : 2GB DDR3
Flash Memory : 8GB
These decent specifications help the box to play video and audio seamlessly. But there is one thing that makes these receivers very popular......its ability for addons.
The most popular addon you can have on the M8 is called Kodi. It was formerly known as XBMC, or XBox Media Centre developed many years ago to play media on the XBOX. Times have changed, and it now allows you to watch almost ANYTHING, new or old, as long as you are connected to the internet. Once Kodi/XBMC is installed, it has downloadable addons.
Sound difficult ? Its not really, but I am sure if your new to it you dont want to muck around so we we will be sending it to you already setup so its simply "plug and play". Lets have a look at some of the goodies on it.
If you like watching TV series, you will love this. Almost any series you can think of and no need to chase latest episodes, they will appear as soon as they are available.
Movies...old, new, new release...you will find them all.
This is just one addon. We have added all the ones that really matter , there are heaps, it also includes Live Streaming !. And if you do get stuck for any reason, head in to Austech's Internet TV forum where these types of applications are discussed. You will cancel Foxtel after you have used this.
