$25 Android box

https://www.techconnect.com/article/...20191001191320

$25 with coupon code at Amazon. See article.

Not sure how well it will work with the miniclient but I'm going to try it.

Don't do it. It is an Android TV box. Not an AndroidTV box. There is a big difference. The former run a phone OS. The latter run a version of OS optimized for boxes controlled by a remote control.

Get a MiBox for $49 from Walmart instead.

A firestick 4K $49.99 works great using EXOPLAYER.

Thanks for the warning. I don't really need it anyway, just thought I'd play with it.
