So I joined the happy community of owners of Miniks. Until now, used a streamer from LG. He began to flush and decided to go to a qualitatively different level. And just that day, when I was already going to the store to buy the X7 suddenly I saw a message about the start of sales x8. I ordered it to the Internet (along with the A2 console) and now waiting for a little to prepare for communication with him. Unfortunately, none in the Internet, nor on the forums did not find instructions (at least the 7th version) nor in Russian or English. I would like to learn it before you start asking, perhaps stupid questions.
Maybe someone good will help me with the desired link?

What's wrong with the MINIX to view online video?


Online cinemas with flash player:
1. The player is not supported by all browsers.
2. Miscellanence from online cinemas I use SVF players who are poorly played
in detailshereandhere

Applications:
Vkontakte Video and Music- It works fine, but there are not all films (fighters with pirates do not sleep;)) + Films with some names It is difficult to find (for example, the film "Robot")
Cinema Ivi.ru.- It works perfectly, but some films are available only by subscription (Ie after donata) + in 40 minute videos we get 4 advertising blocks for 6 minutes each.

Torrent TV:
Unfortunately, I have not bother yet. If someone can paint the advantages and minutes torrent TV, please.
