Yes.
Output Hz is switched to the video fps for any and all video.
Works as it should.
But there is a thing that would be nice to see in "final" version. Is there a way to temporary disable it? There are occasions, like going through many recordings, which causes many unwanted black screens (it takes 1-2 second on TV to make a switch) when frame rate goes back to Android one and back to video,...

Hello! New Q5 Pro User here (and very, very happy!)
i use Kodi with the HiMediaplayer wrapper, does this framerate switcher work in combination with the wrapper?

How do I uninstall the patch?
To temporarily disable it first install the latest version (see OP, we have gone up two version numbers since I posted the thread this morning!) then edit the file '/sdcard/autoFMTswitchFlag' on Q5/Q10 Pro. Use ES FIle Explorer on similar, it has a built in text editor. Change the text inside the file to ON or OFF.
Fix this tool also the 23,976Hz microstutters problem?
How do I uninstall the patch?
Hello Futeko,
Does the new firmware contain this auto frame switching already, should we install the new firmware and plus auto framerate or jsut the new f/w enough?
New 1.0.5 firmware implements auto-switching for all resolutions 23.976/24p, so if that's all you need then I recommend just installing the new firmware.
Instructions are in opening post:
You need a Windows PC and Q5/Q10 Pro connected to network.
Instructions:
- Download autoFMTswitch_1.0.4.rar to PC: http://www.mediafire.com/?9scd3gn0xm3r3tc
- Unzip
- Execeute RUN_ME.bat at command prompt
- Insert Q5/Q10 Pro IP address (you will be asked for IP address)
I've done this, do I have to do anything else or should I leave it as done above? I can see the file at /storage/emulated/0.
When I clicked on it, it says "open with..." which application should I open it with? I selected most of the programs to make it work with, but there was no respond.
How can I check if it's working?
I should keep 24 Hz "CLOSE" right?

You need to download and extract autoFMTswitch_1.0.4.rar to a Windows PC. I think you've downloaded it to the Q5/Q10 Pro..
The key file is a Windows batch file, .BAT.
Image in this post shows how Windows command prompt should look when script has been run successfully: http://www.futeko.com/newforum/index.php?topic=1043.msg7683#msg7683
I did that exactly, nothing else to do, right? Is this enough?
Sorry I can't reproduced.My TV is only 1080p.
When I use the framerate switch and after the end of the, TV remains at 2160p 24Hz. - Settings - Display.
When I enter inside the Display, TV returns back to 1080p, 60Hz.
HDMI auto adaptation is marked at the beging and not marked after finish of the movie.
Why do I get an error everytime I run the "run_me.bat" file? The message that i get is "The process adb.exe not found". Is this normal?
Was this patch included in the firmware released last week? Or, do we still need to apply this patch to get auto switching working?
This Windows taskkill output message and I answer 3 post up, is normal error(message), ignored.
This Windows taskkill output message and I answer 3 post up, is normal error(message), ignored.
Just use "taskkill /f /im adb.exe >NUL" in the next rls... :)
Did you test it before to post? :)
I have installed the script as dsecribed and have turned off the 24Hz in the Himedia settings. In the Advanced settings of the player 24Hz is also displayed do I alter this or is this just showing that the script is actually working as it should?
Thanks for the good work.
"autoFMTswitch_1.0.9"
The microshutter this problem will be solved?
Because it still occurs after installation.
1. I have 1080p/60Hz set in Android, TV via AV receiver is also Full HD (1080). While testing this patch, it occurred that Android's frame rate was not restored after closing 24fps movie and when going back in Android settings I noticed display was set to 2180p/24Hz. Resolution is wrong as AV reported that HDMI was really 1080p/24Hz. Does patch maybe wrongly tries to set resolution from 1080p to 2160p?My TV is only 1080p.
When I use the framerate switch and after the end of the, TV remains at 2160p 24Hz. - Settings - Display.
When I enter inside the Display, TV returns back to 1080p, 60Hz.
HDMI auto adaptation is marked at the beging and not marked after finish of the movie.

this enhancement enable only FULL Auto framerate switching for HimediaVideoPlayer, not fix firmware issues.
Futeko says to try with this tools to solve microshutters on 23.976 fps source....waiting a firmware solving.
isn't so?
| Video fps | HDMI output Hz |

| 29.970(30/1001) | 59.940 hz ( 29.970 x 2 ) |
I have a dumb question.
If the Auto switching patch or fix is now part of the most recent firmware, then why would anyone need to load this patch? I would think this thread would go dead.
Does this mean that auto switching was NOT fixed in the recent firmware release?
For perfectly smooth video reproduction, as video material can be recorded in a variety of frame rates (23.976fps, 24fps, 25fps, 29.97fps, 30 fps, etc.) which need to be properly matched by the refresh rate of the display, in order to be displayed smoothly.
so ..
Video fps HDMI output Hz 24 24 Hz 23,976(24/1001) 23,976 hz 25/50 50 hz 30/60 60 hz 59.940(60/1001) 59.940 hz 29.970(30/1001) 59.940 hz ( 29.970 x 2 )

HiMedia Video Player with 24P enable support only 50/60<>23,976/24, doesn't work with 50 <> 60,50 <> 59.94 or 60 <>50 hrz ecc.. ).
himedia player video support auto-switch to only 24P:

Did you tried after restart of the unit?
If yes, probably you have the same problem like me.
@pcristi is working on that issue.
Not need run as as administrator.
Simple Duble click RUN_ME.bat.
One more question, what for there are additional commands like "force on" or "force off" auto frame switching in the patch menu? I've chosen "force on" command, so I did the right thing I hope.
I have installed the script as dsecribed and have turned off the 24Hz in the Himedia settings. In the Advanced settings of the player 24Hz is also displayed do I alter this or is this just showing that the script is actually working as it should?
Thanks for the good work.
'24Hz' whilst playing a video in Menu - Advanced options is the equivalent of turning 24Hz on/off in main settings (Home screen - Settings - playback) but for that one file only.
If you're using the auto-switch patch then both settings should be off. So there no need to change the 24Hz setting when playing a video.
In the Advanced Menu the 24hz cannot be turned off, I tried to close it but it always stays on the 24Hz. Any suggestions?
have himedia planned to give full frame switch feature in his firmware?
I think is a "must have" function in a media player.
How to apply this patch on MAC OSX..??
Thanks!
Need help please. I have been messing with this for hours and still auto switching is not working.if i am not wrong, the patch every time box start catch the system resolution, so If you change the resolution need restart the box.
What I am looking for is the resolution to change between 1080p and 2160p. I'm using Kodi as the player.
I set the Box Settings Display to 2160 @ 30fps - with this setting, it will play my 4k movies just fine, as long as the Wrapper is set to Kodi Player and not Wrapper player. However, if then try to play a 1080p movie, the resolution remains at 2160p, meaning it just upscales it I guess. It should adjust the resolution to 1080p.
If I set the Box Display to 1080p, and try to play a 4k movies, it downgrades it to 1080p - again ,it should change the resolution to 2160p.
I cannot have the HDMI Auto setting checked in Settings, because it will just drop to 1080p and never play at 2160p. So this setting is worthless.
I ran the Auto Patch, selected option 1 to install it. after the reboot I ran the run_me.bat file again and selected option 3 to force Auto ON.
Can somebody please confirm all the relevant settings to make the dam auto switching work so that I can go back and forth between 1080 and 2160?

@switchblade --> 2160p24Hz or 2160p30Hz or 2160p25Hz show in Box Setting is wrong information display when scripts stack, information posted
http://www.futeko.com/newforum/index.php?topic=1043.msg7981#msg7981
autoFMTswitch -- not change screen resolution just fit framerate with fps.
- download last autoFMTswitch_1.0.10 download link in OP
- check in Setting/More/Display to have wanted Display set ex: TV FHD 1080p50Hz or TV 4K 2160p50Hz
- Run run_me.bat and do uninstall (or Run uninstall.bat)
- Wait box for reboot
- Run run_me.bat and do install
- Wait box for reboot
If still not get running for you do install firmware with restore button and install autoFMTswitch_1.0.10 or wait for HMD 1.0.6.
New firmware HMD 1.0.6 will not need autoFMTswitch for majority of users.
@looun is true script catch the system resolution on start box, and is recheck every 1 second, if user change it from IR remote/BOX setting/Android setting.
If scripts is stack, box is reboot/power off when HiMediaVideoPlayer, using Kodi with DVDPlayer and addon Hi-Frequency-Switcher are specific situation when display setting is 1080p23.976Hz and save it and Box Setting show 2160p24Hz.

If anyone's still have a nerves to test it, version autoFMTswitch_1.0.11
- posible fix DVD PAL "vibrations" details etc.
- in old FW HMD 1.0.1/1.03 maybe not work
- test only with HiMedia 24Hz off
1.0.11
- add framerate in rate(FrcInRate) try to fit to fps (on this test down round)
Download link (http://www.mediafire.com/?7ecjs0b84h0ahu0).
PS: pendulum video may look slow motion but more closer to Kodi witch supposed to play correct.
Feedback are welcome.
Yes.Can this be used with version 1.0.6 ?

Don't know how the tool internally works. But what I have read:
a) Movies are in 24P/1001 format almost always also for telecine (48P reported apparently but should come out as 48P/1001 with duplicated frames) and also valid for some mislabeled 24P videos being 24P/1001. So we identified 2 sources for frame-rate problems next to potential yet unknown other causes.
b) The real rate to be used should be 24/1001 = 23, 976023976024 where 23, 976 (next digit is a 0 anyway) will do but using 23,97 is not accurate enough and remains visible (read pro's reporting this).
I have no clue how this relates to your problem not being able to enter decimals?
Can't test myself as my own material does not have the problem.
yes , old Q5 3D4k report "FrcInRate: 23.97"

Just curious, are we expecting this patch to be implemented in 1.0.8 firmware by HiMedia?
Just curious, are we expecting this patch to be implemented in 1.0.8 firmware by HiMedia?
This patch is mostly already incorporated in firmware 1.0.7 with 24p mode turned on.
What works in 1.0.7: is 50/60 > 23.976/24/25/30/29.97.
What doesn't work in 1.0.7 is 60 > 50 / 50 > 60. Also some interlaced 50/60 material is output at 25/30. These features are being considered for addition by HiMedia. We've requested that they are included along with more options to control how switching works.
With autofmt it works :) but with latest Patch 29.97fps doesnt Change to 60 anymore, was working with previous Version ?
When I turn ON 24Hz setting, the TV does not recognize HDMI 3 port (10 bit support). Q10 runs at the background but the view goes away. If I plug to another HDMI 1 port, I can see the view, turn off 24 hz and plug the HDMI port again (10 bit support) and it gets O.K.
for having the correct fps on DVD.iso, I must also install autoFMTswitch_1.0.10 on 1.08 ?

How to disable Auto framerate switching?

At list in Android 5.1.1 OMX report just 24, 25, 30, 50, 60.
Some user suggest to add custom display format 1080p 24Hz and 1080p 23.97Hz, 2160p 23.97Hz this can be work around for:
Kodi, YouTube, Amazon Video and Netflix use OMX so 23.976 --> 24, 29.97 --> 30 and 59.94 --> 60.
Annoying time for switching resolution in slow switching device like Denon receiver.
If anyone want try can set via adb shell with disptest utility:
Replace value with:
4 --> 1080p/24
79 --> 1080p/23.976
74 --> 2160p/23.976Code: [Select]adb connect ip_player
adb shell disptest setfmt value
adb shell disptest setsaveparam
Ignore information form Settings / Display is not true, your FHD TV is not become UHD TV after set 1080p/23.976.
To set back to normal go to Settings / More/ Display / Custom display format and set what need it 1080p60, 1080p50, 2160p30, etc.

Hello,
Have some requests about the HDR10 setting in Q10 Pro witch don't keep the setting and switch all the time to AUTO. In that way i notice with only some HEVC movies files when playing with the Wrapper have Blue bands at the top and bottom ? But if the HDR10 is ON works fine, so
And so when when we try to put the Custom Display in 2160p 60Hz, can't do it with my LG 65EF950V. Why ? Only stay in 1080p 60 hz setting. But when i play a 4K file for example, and see the Info playing have 2160p, so did you see that mistakes!!!.. Thanks

4K and HDR10 settings will be improved in next firmware. At this point, I would advise waiting for that firmware. HiMedia are aware of the problem you describe.
You should be able to set 2160p 60Hz in current firmware though. This resolution requires HDMI 2.0a cables throughout. If you were using HDMI 1.4 cables (or had an HDMI 1.4 receiver in the chain) then you would see 2160p 30Hz as max selectable resolution.

Hi,
After running the script, I noticed a significant delay in Kodi autostart time in Q5 Pro. Is it possible that the script affects this timer?
Is there any setting that I can change in order to run Kodi faster after Q5 boot?
UPDATE
It seems that android total boot time is greater since script run. The problem remains even after running UNINSTALL.BAT script.
Android 7, I run the latest patch. Please help!

so this means the 50/60 Hz contents are played 23.976/24/25/30/29.97 Hz ?
so this means the 50/60 Hz contents are played 23.976/24/25/30/29.97 Hz ?
In any official firmware since 1.0.7, with 24p mode turned on in Settings - Playback the box will automatically switch from 50 or 60Hz to 23.976 or 24 or 25 or 30 or 29.97 Hz if it's appropriate for the content.
ok perfect so my understanding was correct that even 50 or 60 HZ content will play in 24 or 25 or 30 or 29.97 Hz
cant we have separate option for 50/60 HZ content to play in 50 or 60 and not lower....I have noticed this creates not so smooth playback....I have another player which has both these settings separately and plays appropriately and not in different HZ mode
Hello.
Good work, but I have read the whole thread but still confused: I assume that 1080 24p setting must be on, but which output resolution should I select in the main screen? I own different resolution stuff (720p, 1080p) and my TV is 4K/30hz.
Thank you for your help.
(Hower it would be great if the player could auto detect the source resolution and switch automaticly respectively to it.)

+1 This feature is LATE, should have already been included in the last FW releases. Lame we have to manually change this setting.

The feature is not late. It's been passed to HiMedia as a feature request but that's all, it's never been promised.
It's also worth mentioning that practically no other android media boxes do this. It would be tricky to implement and would likely result in many instances of no HDMI output when box switches to an output resolution not supported by connected TV/projector.
It works very well on Enigma2 Sat boxes, but as you say don't think any other Android boxes offer this. Again this could be something to really put the q10 ahead of other boxes.
4k 59.94p files output in 2160p still is not fixed. Outputting at 60hz (frame repeat every 17 sec. approx.). You can check this test file:
I still do not understand why this feature (Auto Frame Rate Switch) will not be included in the Q5 / Q10 by default.
Reeeeeeeeeeeally very strange!!!!

So if I understand correctly (according to the description) I must turn 24p mode OFF in the menu to get the desired frame rate switching "upgrades to work". OK, but the other modes that are already implemented in the firmwares still will work with 24p mode OFF?!
I want to use this patch with some DVD iso-s. All the other frame switching options will work just as fine as before installing the patch?! Doesn't it have any side effects, or doesn't it generate any anomaly or other unexpected bugs?! :???
And is there a similar way to "remove" the patch, without needing to reinstall the whole firmware?!
Thanks for the replies!

Does latest Patch Version work with FW 2.4?
I need the Patch because even 2.4 cant auto change fps 50/60fps Sources
I just installed CFW 2.0.4 on my q5pro. Everything looks OK, but some options have changed. For instance in Settings - Playback no 24Hz option appears now (instead it appears a "Frame rate adaptation" option.
I have installed the auto framerate switching for Himedia Player (patch v. 1.1.2). The patch is correctly applied but it does not seem to work, no matter if the "Frame rate adaptation" option is ON or OFF. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks

I just updated my q10 to 2.0.4 and installed this patch. It didn't work at first so I switched "frame rate adaptation" to "open" and now it works fine.
can you guys elaborate on what this 3d to 2d switch regressions means? I just tested a bluray 3d iso that is 23.976 fps and is sending a 24hz signal. Is this correct? I expected 23.976 like the 2d movies.@sherakin

Great job! Thank you!
@PCristi.
Thank you for your kind answer and development work.
I uninstalled it since (reading in the dedicated forum link and RED RECOMMENDATION OF FUTEKO) it is INTENDED FOR INTERNAL KODI PLAYER ONLY.
I am using Kodi+Wrapper and thus I do not need it.
Thank you, again.
What is video output before to start play 2160/60 or 2160/50?
Hello!
This post is regarding the correct DVD 25->50/30->60Hz switching on the official 2.0.4 fw. Some have reported (on another Forum), that even without installing this patch, when they play 25fps DVD's with HiPlayer, they've got 50Hz displayed on the TV's info bar. How this could be possible?! As far as I know the correct DVD Hz switching still isn't solved even on 2.0.4 fw. And this -presumably- indicates that somehow the correct switching happens even so. ? :???
Any thoughts or explanations on this, please?! (Would be great if others also would try if it works or not this way).
I have just jumped from CFW 1.0.7 to CFW 2.0.5 and want to try this patch, but do not have windows pc, rather linux. Any assistance how I can execute the necessary on linux?

@mount81: I was thinking the same thing, but since this is an addon that needs restarting Kodi, I do not think it can be disabled easily. I am even not using it with 2.0.5, but I do not have ISOs of any kind, DVD or BluRay.

You must be mistaken it with the KOID fps add-on, this one is for the HiMedia Player.
And I do would like to use it more often, as i have a bunch of DVDs, that are some older content, yet can't be found in newer format.

Change sleep 5 if need different pause time, don't remove it will increase CPU usage for no benefit.

I changed "sleep 5" --> "sleep 15" with notepad ++, ran the batch file again. Seems to run the batch ok cause the player rebooted but it didn't make a difference, what am I doing wrong? Using your CFW 2.0.5. btw.

Probably you have HiMedia 24Hz ON, so resolution is switch by HiMedia implementation not script. Please try with HiMedia 24Hz OFF to see if fit your needs.
Is this how it works: if i turn On the 24p mode in the menu than the patch script will turn Off automatically? Or they just will hitch up and act unpredictable? (CFW 2.0.6).

To get perfect match between FrcInRate and FrcOutRate for majority of users will be enough to use just HiMedia 24Hz ON.
Some of as need more then HiMedia implemented and will start use this patch witch is recommend to use with HiMedia 24Hz ON for FW v2.0.6.
@Flash3d ask for different pause time, script can't control HiMedia implementation so for this reason have to set HiMedia 24Hz OFF, but from set HiMedia 24Hz OFF will get also mismatch FrcInRate/FrcOutRate(ex.video 23.976fps play with FrcInRate = 48.0 --> FrcOutRate = 23.97) witch cause visible frame drop if TV/AVR/Projector not corrected. Conclusion every user have test it and choose what is best fit for him for daily use.
@pcristi, sorry for the confusion but why would we get a mismatch with 23.976fps source when using your script and 24Hz OFF? This behavior is what your script is fixing isn't it?
Well, it is nothing to do with Himedia, it is industry standard , any other media box will behave the same.
4:4:4 Color Space support 10 bit at 23,24,25 FPS
4:2:0 Color space support 10 bit at 50,60 FPS
IN your case you have to switch to 4:4:4 colorspace in order to get 10 bit Color at 23.9 FPS.
There is NO OTHER OPTION and never will be.
Feature Request:
if source is 720p then output is 720p with the appropriate framrate of the source, if not selected then default
if source is 1080i then output is 1080i, rest like above
if source is 2160p then output is 2160p, rest like above.
Would this be possible ?
I have a question about the benefit to double the frame rate (eg. from 25 to 50) if the TV I have has the frame interpolation activated.
If the mediaplayer sends at 25 frames/sec. the TV creates frames to "fluidify" the stream but if the TV receives 50 frames/sec. I should lose this feature.
Is it correct?
Good evening
I'm using the cfw 2.0.4, and I've just installed the auto framerate switching 1.1.4 and when I launch a file, it stops.
To restore normal operation I had to uninstall the patch, I ask if there are any problems with this firmware version.
Thank you
OK, the inevitable question ... do I need to install auto framerate switching on the new 2.0.9. operating system????

So yes it needs installing.

The pcristi additional auto framerate / auto resolution patch will never be integrated into official firmware. It's an unofficial patch.
So yes it needs installing.

Does this patch fix the 24hz stutter problem with 3D 23.976hz ISO's ?No. Use a PC for bug-free Blu-ray 3D playback.
And very confusing is that the Q10 Pro Display Option shows suddenly 4096x2160 60hz ( But in Fact Output is still 2160p 30hz as i see in TV and AVR OSD)

I currently have it turned on (have not flashed patch) and it appears to be working ok although sometimes while watching video in default player the screen will temporarily turn black for 2 seconds then resume.
