New U22 audio feedback

[jebll]

New u22, recieved last saturday.

I have 2 other minix boxes, x7 and u9 both excellent and going strong but let down by lack of app support, hence recent u22 purchase.

I am on FOTA 006a

2 main issues,

1.audio feedback. Audio out is line from headphone jack to external speakers. Buzzing can be heard, worse when on stand by. Also volume control on a2 lite controls the tv volume at the same time, this also happens with the minix ir remote. tv remote also controls the box vica verca but this started happening with my u9 too about 6 months ago.


2.Can not grab and hold things with the pointer of a2, using different launcher than provided, eg press and hold widget to add to home screen.

Any help and or suggestions welcome, thanks.

1. Feedback is usually due to poor magnetic isolation. You can try a magnetically shielded cable.
Also, what you describe as controlling both the box and the TV volume is a function called HDMI CEC. You can turn it off in the settings.

2. Not sure how I can help you with that.

I am gutted I had not read this post and wish I had bought through amazon instead of ebay, at least I could send it back.

You don't need to begin an entirely new thread repeating the same content or duplicate your posts in a short period of time. (Give other members a chance to read the original.)

Your original post here would have been fine without starting this thread as well....

Great thanks for your help, found the cec setting. Shielding could be a problem it seems to be a little on every cable. At least it is not a faulty box. Cheers.
