No picture when streaming just sound

[Mathew87]

Hello everyone ive been trying to get to the bottom of this for sometime but still havent found an answer...
I have an droidstick mx box with the latest kodi 16.1 installed on it ive installed various addons that i know worked on my box before it was flashed but now when i try to watch anything i get no picture at all just sound when i open any link. Ive been told to check the acceleration by alot of people and have one last thing to try (unchecking) all options under acceleration and see if that does the trick im not feeling very confident spent 2 nights playing around with it with no luck. Ive re installed kodi 6 times and also tried 15.2 same sinario.
Any help would be amazing thank you all so much mathew

Experimenting with acceleration settings often fixes this type of problem so persist with that. Also check hdmi leads are fully seated. Other than that you should contact droidsticks support. You say you've flashed the box - hopefully that has not screwed anything up.

@Mathew87 Have you contacted ( https://www.entertainmentbox.com/contact-us/ ) Entertainment Box (the new name for DroidSticks) regarding the issue?
You could try SPMC instead of Kodi - https://github.com/koying/SPMC/releases/download/16.3.0-spmc/SPMC-armeabi-v7a_16.3.0.apk or https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.semperpax.spmc16 if you prefer to install via the Play Store.
When you speak to them, let them know the precise versions of Kodi/SPMC you've tried, they'll presumably want your original order information, and which steps you've already tried. Oh, also whether the no video issue is only within Kodi, or if other Android apps have the same issue.

Ah, Nigelar beat me to it!

I recommend the T8-S box it's powerful and works great.
If you like gaming have a look at the T8-S plus games edition.

Good luck

@Mathew87 Again, refer to Entertainment Box to be sure, but if their devices are set up in a similar way, you could try reinstalling the original Kodi build that came with the firmware (after uninstalling the version you put on). See

for how we'd do it on one of our T8 or T8-S models.
