TANIX TX9S performance

 

The advantages include the abundance of video and sound decoders. The prefix processes something on its own, something just forwards to the receiver. Sound can be transmitted digitally via HDMI and SPDIF, or by analogue via the AV output.

It is difficult to imagine that a budget device does not heat up during use. It is impossible to achieve failures in the trotting test - a perfectly green chart. But judging by the test, it is clear that the TV box, with a noticeable load, lowers the processor frequency.

When playing video in 4K format from the network or from removable media will not cause problems. But with Youtube friezes are noticed. The picture twitches slightly, which causes dissatisfaction when viewing. Considering that users watch all content from YouTube in FullHD, the problem is not relevant. Since at a lower resolution everything works perfectly.

For gamers, the TANIX TX9S TV box is not suitable. And the point is no longer in performance, but in hardware limited resources. 2 GB of RAM (part of which the Android system eats) is not enough to run productive toys. And the video card is rather weak. That is, the prefix is ​​intended only for viewing video content.
