Tips for the best picture on Android TV Box
- Use the Ethernet port: most boxes have far steadier wired connections than Wi-Fi.
- In TiviMate, Settings → Playback → Video decoder 'Hardware' often gives smoother 4K on Android boxes.

Common Android TV Box problems
Picture freezes while sound carries on
Change the decoder: TiviMate → Settings → Playback → try 'Software'; Smarters → Settings → Player Selection → the other player. Budget boxes often report the wrong hardware decoder.
The app keeps closing
Clear its cache in Settings → Apps → [player] → Storage → Clear cache. If it continues, the box is short of memory: close other apps and hide channel groups you don't watch.
