Open VPN will be added soon. Linux has no apps for VPN that work with remotes. You could Always just use a VPN on your router.
November 14, 20241 yr Could we connect a mouse to this box, and would it be functional ? If so, then it might eventually be nice to have some other VPN clients (I use Windscribe myself). Can use a mouse to easily configure it, with auto connect at boot, spilt tunnels or whatever else user wants. And at least this way, if need to change VPN destination server it is easier to go through the client instead of generating new OpenVPN certs and importing them, etc.. Not an issue for me, since I do have a few VPN connections direct on my router, and I use different routing policies to route certain devices through the preferred VPN tunnel. But that is not the typical user 🙂
November 14, 20241 yr This Box is what we've been looking for. It fits perfectly in the space for people who want ease of use and to go after Mag users.👌

November 16, 20241 yr Just took latest firmware, and I just tested it. Doesn't work for me either. And the Last channel history is a little strange. Changed a few channels. Then from full screen, DPAD-DN twice to get shortcuts, then scroll right to go to "last channel" icon, and press OK. It brings up what is supposed to be the "Last Channel history" (I'll clarify shortly what I mean by "supposed to be". From there I can select any channel and it will not change, it just closes the list goes back to the channel that is playing. Now, reason I said "supposed to be" is because the Last Channel history list is NOT in the order I would expect it to be in like other buzz boxes. Other buzz boxes, the last channel history list shows the last channel you were on (not including your current channel), at the top. And then goes down in the order they were tuned to. So a typical queue where the channel gets popped into. On the L1, IF you are selecting channels that are not in the list, it will add them to the top of the queue (as expected). But, if the channel is already in the list (further down for example), it will NOT be popped to the top of the list. It just stay in it's existing position in the "list". It does internally keep track of the actual "last channel" since the last channel "button" works fine when short pressed for single last channel quick change. IF I long press to get the list, the channel which it will jump to when I short press the last channel button, can be anywhere in the "displayed" list. In summary, when you tune to a channel, if the channel is in the list already, it should be bubbled up to the top of the list. At least that is how I recall i working on other boxes. I will check a few boxes on the weekend.
