Most Android apps are made for phones, and lack the necessary API calls and design to work with a TV remote interface. Would have been nice if they would have increased the storage capacity of the 4K stick.Joinsubscribers and get a daily digest of news, geek trivia, and our feature articles. So triple the speed there… does you nothing. Ya, but it only really matters if you are transferring data over the network. Please could u give me a setup with ethernet hub 3. Even the wifi chip in the original Fire TV stick could have handled 4K streaming if the rest of the device was capable. Makes streaming 4K content over a wired connection much more reliable. Hmm, I thought using the Smays 5V DC-in power cable that comes with the Smays adapter, plugged to the Amazon power adapter would do the trick. Interesting, so this new Stick needs more power than the Pendant and the previous Stick? I guess so cause people on the Smays product page on Amazon say it works great with those devices. While it fucntioned as expected USB ports worked and it recognized my hardwired network cable, I also experience frequent intermittent reboots of the Firestick 4k.Īfter dealing with that for a few hours on my first night with the new Firestick I disconnected the Smays hub and went back to the psu that came with the Firestick, no reboots since. I just checked and Smays now makes an adapter that uses a full-sized USB plug. If you are using Kodi, the external USB drive automatically appears in the library menu and videos, as well as other media, can be played and accessed without any issues. There is also no way to unmount the drive safely, so you have to just pull it out and deal with any consequences, or pull it out while the Fire TV Stick 4K reboots to be extra safe. With the Fire TV Stick 4K, USB drives are properly mounted by the operating system, so the files on the drive are available to every app automatically. This severely limited your ability to use the drive because it did not appear in apps like Kodi and emulators. If you recallUSB drives were only supported on the Fire TV 3 through apps, like file browsers, that could mount the drive themselves. With a USB hub, you can use multiple peripherals simultaneously. It simply works with the cable right out of the box.
