    I recall reading Samsung had issues with Allshare/MiraCast, but lost the trail. Does anyone know if the Galaxy S4 will work with all of these devices now? Thanks in advance

    Salut :) J'ai ma Tronsmart depuis la fête des pères (c'était mon cadeau :o) ... ) donc depuis 10 jours ; comme je suis à la retraite, j'ai eu le temps d'essayer pas mal de choses ! D'abord, çà marche vraiment bien en général - image télé et son : rien à redire. Le WIFI : marche TRES bien, config et détection faciles, pas de perte de connexion, débit de qualité avec mon router Belkin wifi G branché en Ethernet sur ma box, qui gère le réseau de ma maison Internet rapide, c'est parfait mais pas de lecteur Pdf fourni : je vais en chercher un sur le store La vidéo : avec la puce graphique, le lecteur vidéo fourni lit sans problème les mpg, iso de Dvd rippé, wmv, mp4 et mkv y compris en HD 1920 et 1080 24p sauf dans ce dernier cas seulement en wifi car il sature ce qui cause des ruptures de quelques secondes - mais faut pas exagérer en demandant trop ! par contre, avec une source directe, aucun problème ! Mes tests sur les sources : cà marche nickel avec : > CLE USB formatées en fat, fat 32, ntfs de 2, 4, 8, 16 et 36 Go > Cartes Mémoire SD et SDHC - avec adaptateur bien sûr... de 16 Mo à 8 Go : aucun problème non plus > Disk Dur USB : pareil pour les formats, et de 128 go à 1 To - j'ai essayé aussi mes vieux disques ;) mais pour les petits HD - 2,5 pouces - il faut mettre une alim au delà de 320 Go ; pour les 3,5 dont le boitier est toujours alimenté, aucun problème.. ATTENTION : si le DD est partitionné, il ne reconnait que la première partition, donc le dique logique 0 - à noter si on veut lire des vieux disques... > Réseau wifi : aucun problème, depuis YouTube et Deezer sur net, jusqu'à tous les fichiers audio/vidéo présents sur mon réseau... j'ai même lu sur mon Tronsmart et écouté sur ma Télé et ma HiFi un clip vidéo transmis en Wifi qui était sur mon smartphone !!! ... et regardé des photos que j'avais prises avec, rangées sur la carte SD du téléphone !!! vrai de vrai ... si, si, si ! Où c'est moins parfait, c'est les périphériques d'entrées... > Souris RF (dite 2,4 gh) bien, rien à signaler > Clavier RF : là, les difficultés commencent... impossible de passer an Azerty... > BlueTooth : NE MARCHE PAS pour les périph d'entrée : ni souris, ni clavier, ni pad, ni tablette.. en fait on arrive à appairer les objets, mais aucun ne fonctionne ; seuls les transferts de fichier marchent :o( Dans la rubrique des désagréments, ajouter l'absence d'interrupteur physique : même si la tablette est éteinte, elle reste alimentée... et pour la rallumer, il faut débrancher/rebrancher soit le bloc d'alim, soit la prise miniUSB de l'alim... incroyable de trouver un tel défaut sur un appareil globalement aussi réussi !!! ... et le cable HDMI trop court : on ne peut quand même pas laisser le Tronsmart pendouiller derrière ou sur le coté de la télé, surtout si sa prise USB normale de façade est occupée par une clé pour connecter la souris, ce qui fait qu'il devient obligatoire d'utiliser le cable OTG miniUSB pour raccorder une source data ... Prévoir donc un cable HDMI/miniHDMI de 1,5 m pour la connection Installer un gestionnaire de fichier plus performant pour utiliser son réseau : celui fourni est un peu léger en capacité et lourd à utiliser - j'ai mis ES Explorer qu'on trouve gratuit sur G**gle Store - au passage le "store" fonctionne impec ! Prévoir aussi d'installer Chrome car le navigateur android fourni est moins bien pour surfer sur grand écran ( la télé !) Pour conclure, malgré quelques bémols, le Tronsmart MK908 est un excellent achat - ou cadeau lol ! - qui permet vraiment de tout voir sur sa télé dans de bonnes conditions, depuis le surf sur le net jusqu'aux clips de YouTube en HD, en passant par tous les films, photos, musiques qui sont dans le réseau familial, qu'ils soient connectés en Wifi où stoqués sur n'importe quel support ! Si je découvre d'autres choses, je vous en parlerai dans un autre post, si vous le souhaitez bien sûr... ;o)

  • @Roger Jennings
    When you do a new view ("save as"), you reuse data from others (You just display it differently). Rights management is associated to items (computers in this case), so if you reuse a computer that were locked, you still cannot edit it. You must make a copy by creating a new item with the same name if you'd like to edit it.
