    Great Video buddy...
    Yeah it's a shame of the price... and it's not really a stick anymore ... If you need a extent cable 🙄
    Agreed just grab a normal tiny box you show in the end 😎

      Exactly. I'm a bit tired at looking at this Male Stick. 😁

    I bought my first PC stick back in...2012 or 2013 I think. They always had two issues. Funnily enough none of them was ever the CPU/iGPU performance. It's always the lack of RAM and the temperatures. The eMMC "ssd" is bad, but it never is the real problem either.
    Shame as one of these with more RAM, say 16GB, and good enough cooling, would make a fantastic tiny PC for those who want it.
    BUT NOOOO, let's just release them gimped. I am 100% certain it's all Intel's idea.
    Yes I realize this is an old video.

      It's pretty crazy to think that this fairly negative review of a computer (randomly bought on AliExpress) would lead in Mele sending us a few more to review and check out 😸. Shows that they don't mind it non-sugar coated.

      @@TeamPandory i asked them and they said its due to the size of the stick whatsoever but they take it as a serious feedback, its still performs and its specs better than some of other similar size and specs models, have u seen the mele quieter2q ? its a bit better than the stick pc, its the size of external 2.5 inch storage, has a m.2 slot for extra storage and usb c power port..

      It was released as both 2097 and XL. I think the US had XL, which was pretty much 2097 with none of the cool tracks from Chemical Brothers and Prodigy.

      @TeamPandory  3 роки тому

      Should work fine. Logitech wheels are quite compatible with Windows systems. My Logitech GT wheel works for me, albeit without the force feedback. Only thing I'd be wary about is there are only two usb ports on this little stick.

All I see is the lspci - snd_hda_intel, aplay - card 0: sofhdadsp [sof-hda-dsp], device 1: HDMI1 (*) []. I have done the whole uninstall reinstall pulse, alsa and no change.

      @@kcf6969 I think it's more a case of having unsupported drivers for the chipset. Many of these j4125 chips have had slight issues when it comes with choosing the sound driver in Linux / batocera. Can you load up Kodi and see if you can select the sound option there ?
