    Just to be sure, when you insert your USB stick, do you see an icon appearing at the right-hand bottom corner of the TVPad ?

    You must have downloaded another firmware version then, maybe 2.62 ??? Try to follow the steps from here: http://clubtvpad.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=6

    If that still does not help, then I give up :)

    You can buy the M121S for the same price as the M121 only this week. Just copy and paste the next words in the order form: "提前预定TVpad M121S新品,8月6日统一发货"

    Just noticed that TVpad released an android app allowing you to use your phone/tablet as a remote control. Only works with fw 3.0.
    Edit: this was first published in the public forum, now it seems to be moved to private forum.

    I mean the testers (help group) sub-forum. I don't have any connection with TVpad.

    I have sent you a PM about this app. Since it's not released to the public, I won't post the link. Also, I doubt it will work. They said that it only works with firmware 3.0 on the TVpad.

    Does that mean that testers also have access to the firmware upgrade file for the M121 ? Or it's only for people that currently have the M121S ?

    Only people that got the M121S have the latest firmware 3.0. Testers do not have access yet to the firmware upgrade file. The latest news I have read is that they are currently preparing the upgrade file, I hope they will release it soon.

    New apps coming in the future?

    [​IMG]

    The second app (app in the middle) seems to be a VOD app (with video's from HK?). Time will tell what these apps are.

    Thanks JVC888, this looks interesting!!! Maybe firmware 3.0 will be worth it after all.



    Oh I nearly forgot, Phanto app v1.3 has been released. The following changes have been added:

    - Simplified the channels file into a text file. No more XML files.
    - Added the possibility to define your own pictures while the channels are loading.

    [Release] The VPlayer app

    Hi all, just a quick note to let you know that we released the VPlayer app which allows you to play videos from a Windows network share. A step closer in making the TVPad a full-fledged media center -bigclap

    Just tested it and my tvpad isn't rooted. Works on any TVpad with 2.72 firmware.

    As far as I know, none of the M121 apps will work on the M121S, because they changed the package version/format.

    Forgive me for going OT to the maige side of things.


    I am really curious if any of the users who have bought this box have got the ipad or PC viewing working ??

    The maige box isnt a 'sat box' as much as its a IPTV box and they are streaming sat channels.

    The description above (viewsat and coolbox) sounds like the dreambox (openbox many clones) systems. These recieve a regular satellite feed from a dish, and then simply use the internet to query a single access card for many many boxes. This way the only data that passes over the internet is a very few bytes of card decrypt codes. This of course doesnt need high bandwidth but does mean you have to be under the foot print of the sat.

    If maige TV info is better in a new thread maybe continue here ??

    I am really interested in this feature.. As I already use a HTPC and a boxee box that can airplay streams from ipads.

    Would love to hear more.
