Agree with the above

Just want to add that the "output resolution change" problem still isn't fixed.
It now default to 1080p (that is better than 720p as it did before :-) )
But please.....
I bought a 4K@60fps and want to use it like that.

HiMedia Q10 Pro, Q5 Pro / Re: KODI Videoplayer PASS THROUGH AUDIO
« on: January 24, 2017, 02:02:02 PM »
It's Chinese New Year holiday in China now, so nobody is working.

After the holiday HiMedia will be looking at why there is not multi-channel audio in Kodi 17 using Kodi internal player.

In the meantime Kodi 17 plus wrapper works perfectly.

My opinion is that Kodi+wrapper is a better solution in general because it eliminates one possible cause of bugs/problems, namely Kodi development/non-development.
Yeah, but you only get ~80 % of the subtitles - tough decision.

I will post my settings here in case it helps, 7.1 channel audio works for me in general with KODI 17 RC3:

I get no audio output at all with those settings.

Everything of course plays perfectly using wrapper.

I get the same result.
It does seem like Kodi is not able to use HDMI, even HDMI in RAW setting.
Strange that some users report it to be working and others don't.
My receiver is an anthem MRX 720, which plays almost any audio.

Sorry, should have made it clear, that the issue is with Kodi 1.7 and not the HiMedia player.

I also have to confess, that the issue is related to a Q5 PRO and not a Q10.
But I assume the audio hardware/handling is the same.

The MX road is my third choice  :)

With Android 7 releases (I don't remember how it worked in version 5.1) you don't get multichannel audio.

HD Audio passthrough is working. So if you pass the audio to a DTS/DD capable AVR you will get multichannel audio.

My Surround receiver is an Anthem MRX 720, basically capable of playing all audio formats.
I have set all pass through formats to "on", is there anymore to do?

Please share how you made it work.

At least not with a HDMI connection.
All audio get downmixed to 2 channel PCM.
I have tried almost all setting possible (pass through etc.) in Kodi but no luck.

I am pretty sure, that the hardware is capable but whether it is an Android or a Kodi issue eludes me.
If anyone has this working with a HDMI connection then please share your setup.

This issues with overlapping subtitles can be easily fixed, just run the subtitles through a software that can fix this even in a batch. I really do not see this as such a big issue like the others that have not been fixed by HiMedia and cannot be fixed by us.

The error is not just overlapping subtitles, this error can be fixed as you describe.
The error is when the <EndTime> of subtitile-1 and the <StartTime> of subtitle-2 is less than a frame apart, then you risk losing the display of subtitle 2.

I am forced to use Kodi for playing such media files.
If you use Kodi  you don't get Multichannel surround sound argh  :-[

Very disappointed! :(

Resolution bug still here (if I set 2160p, after reboot, swirch itself to 1080p).
No fixes on subtitles that disappear when timing is too close.

I think I will give the last chance to this "machine" with fw 1.09 and then Iwill move away from himedia.

Me too.

The "tagging issues" on subtitles have been fixed, but the more critically "missing subtitles" is not fixed.
And the cause is as written, if the time between 2 subtitles is less than a frame you risk missing the subtitle.
The logic for putting the subtitles in the next frame needs more work.

25
I have just uninstalled the Wrapper to test Kodi 17 and passthrough and on my setup it isn't working, reinstalled Wrapper and it is fine.

I tested this, just to get subtitles to work, but pass through of multichannel audio audio doesn't work.
So basically I just confirm the observation :-)

26
+2  :)

This issue and getting all subtitles to show is badly needed.

Still not fixed in  "Q5 PRO FIRMWARE. ANDROID 7. 2.0.0-FUTEKO-EN. HMD-2.0.0 2016-11-18.175905"

Really disappointed  :'(

I can confirm, that the bug is still present.
The only thing, that minimizes the resolution changes is to go as high as possible in colorspace setting.

But I am disappointed that himedia didn't fix this (most likely) pretty trivial bug.

HiMedia Q10 Pro, Q5 Pro / HDMI output resolution keeps changing
« on: September 18, 2016, 08:19:00 AM »
Hi.

I generally have my Q5 Pro switched on all the time.
The Q5 Pro is connected to a HDMI input on my 4K AV receiver, as are my TV box and my Chromecast.

Even though I have the output resolution fixed in the settings in my Q5 Pro it always change to to typically 1080i.
I then manually change the setting to 2160@60 and it stays at 2160 for the rest of time of using it.
I normally leave the Q5 Pro in the Kodi GUI.
The next time I switch my receiver to the Q5 Pro input the output is at 1080i again.

Has anybody got a cure for this quite annoying behaviour, please.

What is the IP address when checked using the Q10 Pro in Settings - Network?

The batch file is correct. It works.

The problem is incorrect IP address or something else to do with your network. It's a simple batch file, with the error messages you're getting the problem cannot be anything else.

Now the quoted is not an answer to my feedback, but it could have been.

I am sure what the IP for the box is, it is using a static address.
I don't have a firewall between my PC and the Q5 box.
The batch file may be simple/basic but it doesn't work on my by box.

I hope somebody is able to come up with a fix or at least some work around.
