    Yeah, I just got this exact set up the third generation Fire TV cube and a pro controller. I actually like that pro controller. It feels more premium even though it’s plastic steel but it just feels like it’s got more weight to it and everything I like it and the built-in lightand especially the lost remote fine feature awesome we always lose our remote in the couch one way or another

    Is there a way to continue watching your current TV program/movie (with a smaller picture in the corner of the screen) while searching the menu for another program/movie, etc. Thanks and GREAT info on your video!

    Can you hook up 2 hard drives or SSDs and use one for external storage of things like Videos, Audio Files, Photos and Apps to be side loaded and the other for Apps and their data storage (if for some reason you have multiple Apps that use Gigabytes of data) ?

      It's the format that's the problem. Try reformatting the HDD to exFat

    how to increase microphone sensitivity...I have had at least 2 versions of every fire cube and this third one is rubbish when it comes to picking up our voices...I have to be no more than 2 feet from the device and have to yell at it multiple times...so damn annoying. Nothing is blocking it...it is not near any other speakers etc.

    I’ve just purchased a fire tv cube. Connected it to my tv / sound at system.
    Every time I now ask Alexa to play music it switches my tv over to the hdmi station and plays music. How can I switch this off????
    Also, when I now ask Alexa a question, it mutes my tv. How do I turn this off??

    just over twelve and a half gigabytes is not enough for Apps designed for Android Devices is not enough storage space? It's not like they are PC Programs, Games and Apps that take up gigabytes of data each. You'd have to have a boat load of Apps to run out of 12.8 GB of storage space.

    I’ve got a 64 GB stick to put in the back of the box. I got a 64 GB Apple TV and I don’t even quite use all that it’s just Apple TV third-party app support sucks and pretty much Netflix on Apple TV is broken. You can’t open up certain shows seasons might disappear then they show back up again again you might not even open up the episode list. It might take a good two minutes before it opened up that list. Apple TV is good quality but their app support sucks for third party apps

    It Sucks that it's only USB 2.0 and 10/100Mbps Ethernet. Why are they so damn Cheap? USB 2.0 is 24 years old, Nobody uses USB 2 anymore and everyone is using USB 3 which came out in 2008, that's 15 years ago so it's not like it's something brand new and still a high priced luxury. Adding USB 3 and 10/100Mbps Ethernet is not going to break the bank of Amazon or increase the selling cost to a price that is not affordable to the average consumer on a budget so it won't make it so Amazon can't compete price wise with it's competitors like apple Roku and Google.
