Things you need to know for installing MiTV on Wall Mount:
Mounting Holes at the Back of MiTV 2
- The mounting holes dimension/ distance on MiTV are 300mm x 300mm
- Importantly, these holes are differs by 1cm height (lower pair are higher than the upper pair)
- Work Around:
- Once you bought your Mount, take one bolt sample that need to screw on MiTV
- Go to hardware shop
- Buy multiple washers that fit (need to be able to stack-up to 2cm = 1cm each for the 2 holes on top row) -- I used around 6 washer to stack up 1cm
- Picture of washer & bolt - make sure bolt cap is larger than washer's hole
- This is how it looks on my TV bracket/ mount:
Wall Mount/Bracket
- Old Mount or Bracket for LCD TV 32"-42" can cope up to 21kg weight
- MiTV 2 only weight around 12kg, you can reuse the old mount. I reused mine
Cable Connections
- S/PDIF cable is extremely short (around 2 feet)
- It ended up below my TV (Failed to conceal it behind my TV cabinet)
- Restarting Subwoofer when it does not function
- When you play with the sound bar's physical buttons, you may accidentally disable subwoofer
- Power off for about 30 seconds until the subwoofer's "MI" LED button's light is off. Power on after that
- If you restart the power before the LED is off, it is not a true restart
Others
- AirPlay or Miracast
From first few trials, it seems- UPDATE: Airplay/ Miracast is not as native as expected. You will first need to open an wireless mirror app to enable it when the app stay opens.
- If your TV comes with 2 pairs of 3D glasses, keep the box. It is designed to keep 4 pairs of 3D glasses
- One of the USB ports labeled supporting Camera for video call
- You can get Karaoke app install into your TV. However, there is still no simple solution to install the mixer and mic for speaker output
