VidOn Box support wireless air mouse, but we don't know whether this Minix mouse actually works on VidOn Box because we do not have one.
If the mouse is not designed for specific hardware and can use on other android box, then it should work on VidOn Box as well.

1. The remote is really crappy cheap plastic. Everytime i press a button, the entire remote releases a creaking sound like the whole remote is going to break into pieces.
2. So i tried using my Logitech K400R Wireless Keypad....after plugging in the K400R's wireless bluetooth thumb-drive into the USB port.....i could not use my Logitech to control the screen. What a major disappointment!!!
3. I reverted back using the remote control....and managed to log into Vidon. Next, had to again log in when i wanted to access into XBMC. Once in XBMC, chose a movie in Icefilm.....but less than 5minutes, the movie just paused. Tried pressing the buttons on the remote but nothing seemed to work. After another 3 minutes the entire XBMC just failed & the screen just switched back to Vidon's main page for no reason without me having to properly exit XBMC.
Major disappointment.

Remote is a disappointment, everything else works OK for now.
I dumped the remote and using Logitech MK240 wireless keyboard and mouse set as the alternative.
and anyone knows when will the new remote comes out?
How did you get the remote to work? I can't get my Logitech Mini Controller (USB) to work at all.

I just plunged the drive part into the USB port, and both mouse and keyboard works fine. I didn't do any additional setting.
Also tested a wired mouse via usb, and no problem.

I cant even get my Logitech K400 to work....plugged in the drive into the USB port & still didnt work.....seriously...how did u get it up n working?..
Hi, Guane
Is your K400 known to work with other Android media players?
I did some research on Logitech official forum. According to their tech support, It seems K400r was made to be used with Windows platform only.
See topic: Use of K400r with minipc android

My Logitech K400 works fine with other Android boxes.... Gbox, MX5, MyGica. Just dont know why it wont work with both my VidOn boxes....
It's the same for me. I'm using a Logitech Mini Controller. Works perfect for all my other Android media boxes. I have several.

Well, what I mean is 'I TRIED' to but this remote won't OK anything, the front panel LED blinks when I am pushing the round middle button, but it doesn't do anything I can move around the languages, but cannot select one!! Tried standing right up next to it, nothing. This is the worst first experience with a new product I have ever had.
So now what? Wait for another month until you send me a replacement?
EDIT: Tried plugging in my old Lenovo N5901, and..it works with this box, although I still cannot select my language (English) so I still cannot use it. I'm able to scroll over & set the screen resolution. That's it. Nothing else.
Now it appears that selecting language is the only option that doesn't work, for whatever reason, I continued scrolling thru & am able to use the box, setting up the other functions.
Still, if the very first screen function isn't taking remote commands, end users will not be very happy about it.

This is a UI design problem. When your language is chosen, no sign to show the current language, only the upper left "Language" will be displayed with your chosen language.
We have already fixed this with the new update.
