March 2020 Formuler Z8 & Z Alpha Software Update

Firmware Version: v1.4.60

MYTVOnline 2 Version: v7.6.10

Hello Formuler fans,

We are back with our new software release for Formuler Z8 and Z Alpha in March!

These release notes provide the most up-to-date information about new features, known issues, and improvements so please read them through for more information.

One of newly added features you will notice is supporting Google Assistant button for voice search function. In order to use this function, you need a compatible remote, which has Google Assistant button on it, and pair the remote with your Formuler Z8 or Z Alpha.

Smart grouping on VOD and auto frame rate (a.k.a AFR) should also be a great add for enhancing viewing experience.

We recommend users install this update to enjoy better features and more stable functionality to your device.

You can download the OTA software updates directly from your device using the built-in update app.
