Hello EmuElec masters,

I recently got my TX3 Mini with S912 Chipset running and so far I’ve been plugging it in to start it up then shutting down version 3.9 EmuElec and then unplugging or else it will boot again.

Is there any way to have it start up/shut down more like a traditional system? Sorry if this is nit picking? Maybe just buy a cable with an on off switch is my best bet?

Thanks ahead of time.

> EmuELEC does not include remote control drivers, if your TX3 is genuine Try downloading the remote.conf file from the link and copy it to the path: emuelec / storage / .config (accessible by shared network in Windows) then restart the device and check if the remote control works. this should allow you to turn the device on and off completely by navigating to the turn off emuelec option
