Are there any benefits to the new box vs a third party option? (Apple TV)?
Signed up with Telus a few days ago and just got my Optik tv boxes in the mail. We already have an Apple TV, so I downloaded the Telus TV+ app while I waited for the Telus boxes, only to be disappo...
Just out of curiosity have you been able to connect Bluetooth headphones successfully to the new telus digital tv box?
I have tried with my apple AirPod headphones and while the box can find the headphones it never connects to them . The appletv has no issues connecting that’s why I continue working I use that box.
Hey, I just tested with my box to see, and I can get them to connect (AirPods Gen 2) and the volume comes through, but there’s no way to change the volume output.
Hmm. I believe mine are first gen. So that could possible be the issue . They do However work with all the other android tv boxes I have used over the last little bit. Also odd that volume control using the telus tv remote doesn’t work for you. That as well has always worked with other android tv boxes for me. Hopefully telus can upgrade the boxes to android 11 or 12. I think telus is running on android 10. I could be wrong I haven’t checked in awhile. But that may fix some issues with the always on hdr, volume control of Bluetooth headphones etc.
- It does appear to be running on Android 10, with the current build being dated June of 2022. Odd that given the date, that they still used 10.
