Egreat A11, A10, A5 / Re: Egreat A10 review
« on: September 11, 2017, 11:35:46 AM »
Thanks...will try that...if no change....then .....

I like the picture quality and the 3Diso playback so I am keeping Egreat but just for this. All my ISO3D and files with menus are on three separate harddiscs so if no change I will connect these three to Egreat and the rest stays connected to the Minix. Think by doing this I can look all without all the time trying to  make it work.
Thanks for you help

Egreat A11, A10, A5 / Re: Egreat A10 review

Hi Olivier and Nice Monkey,

4 days ago I asked you and nice monkey about the A11....compared to A10 and A5. Will post my first impressions here as this has nothing to do with the A11...sure you will read my remarcks here.

I bought me a A10 saturday  (so 2 days ago) and have been testing / playing with it since then. Android is very very different when one is used to a Windows 10 MPC. 

Now what I think of the A10 ?. Bluraymenu and 3Diso Playbackin the internal player  are perfect and that will be the reason why I will keep an Egreat. 
Nice Monkey...you are right...for kodi-users this i.m.o. is not the best. The Vidon clone is based on Kodi 16 so  some of my IPTV app's just don't work. And I like the picture of Kodi 17.4 on my Minix NGC-1 much much better.  But what really bothers me is that when using either Vidon or Kodi 17.4 on the Egreat I get constant loud hisses in the sound. Also: playback is not smooth....after 10 minutes I get stutters. Either when playing my own files or when using Covenant in Kodi. I not have that when I use  kodi  on my Minix pc. So you two have any ideas aout what I am doing wrong.

I have about 5000 movie-files and when I open Kodi on my Minix all the posters come in about 20 seconds. Managed to get the posters app in the Egreat internal player working but every time I start it up my movies are gone and it starts looking for them....takes about 90 minutes before they there. Is that normal ?

I am not giving up on it yet though and that is why I write to you.  Perhaps I am doing something wrong. But at present I prefer my Minix NGC-1....it is faster...easier to use on a daily bases.

Looking forward hearing from you

At first...thanks Olivier and Nice Monkey for both your advice. I I will go for the A10 then.  And will get me an Egreat A5 for the bedroom too. Still cheaper then one A11.
Sorry for Futeko.com but  yes the Egreat  players are cheaper here in Thailand. I just made a quick stroll around 4 shops  in Bangkok (I could give ythe names but as you have a shop too I in no way want to undermine your business) and mentioned below are the prices  I found Egreat A5 and A10 for here . Mind you it are not the Chinese models . One shopkeeper showed me a running Egreat A5 and it had all its software available in both Dutch and Danish. He told me mostly expats buy them.  Thai customers preferred the plug and play players and reading here and on other forums as well that both Zidoo and Egreat are not.  He also told me that Egreat is selling the A10 at a reduced price to get ridd off their stock. True or false I do not know but if i were Egreat I would do the same if I really wanted to push the A11.
I also checked on internet and  at the big shops I know in Chiang Mai and Udon Tani prices are near the same as ones you see below.
The A11 is at the moment only available at a very very upmarket shop near the Emporium shopping center and for a price that made me fastly run away.  Thai Baht 19.895,--...about 458 UK Pounds and they have to order it  for you if you want one.

Egreat A5 can be had here for between 4.290 Thai Baht and  4.990 Thai Baht...available all over the Bangkok. So between 95 and 115 pounds UK.
Egreat A10 is only available at 2 of the shops I know in Bangkok and at the two big electronic shops in Chiang Mai between  6.290 Thai Baht and 8.990 Thai baht (but then  with a free 500gb harddrive included). So in UK pounds between 145,-- and 205,--.

Today I will go get me the Egreat A10 and start to "play"with it. Should I run into any troubles I know where to go: this forum.
Thanks.

sorry my internet line just  went on strike

What I want to ask Olivier......if I read your review about the Zidoo X10 you prefer that one over the A10.......considering the lower price would you still go for the Zidoo X10 ?. I know it will be me to make the final decision but I would appreciate your view.

Thanks....I am no newbie to Kodi but to Android I am.
