Android STB – WebTube HD

Here’s another Android Set-top-box that may come to the market soon. I do not have much information on this product, except it’s made by mnex – a Korean company. (Update: although the youtube video says otherwise, the design seems to belong to Innodigital (See Webtube HD details). The video below shows it supports Android web browser, Youtube, Google maps and interestingly an application market especially designed for TV (TV Application Market). Apparently, they control the box with a normal remote control, no track ball or touch pad, nor do they seem to have support for wireless mouse and/or keyboard. The demo looks good, although a bit sluggish. See for yourself:

  2. Thanks Christian and Guest, I have corrected the blog entry. I suppose mnex is just a distributor since the guy on the video ask us to contact James at mnex for more details.

    1. Hi Lubin,
      I do not have the box, and I could not find which type of SoC is used in this particular box. Innodigital is a development company so they probably want to be able to use several types of SoC with Webtube-HD middleware.

      They only give the following hardware specs in their website:
      OS : Android Memory : 512 Mbyte DDR / 2 Gbyte Flash Memory
      USB(option) : 1 port (for option) Audio : MPEG-1 layers 1,2 and 3(MP3)
      Video : MPEG4, H.264 High Definition(720p), NTSC/PAL RCU : 15keys RF type
      Dimension : 90mm×70mm×16mm (L×H×D) Power Type : 5V/2A Adaptor Type
      Options : Wi-Fi dongle / RF Keyboard
