Indeed thus far he was always right. This is very good news provided this is a well regression tested release. The last updates were a bit messy to say it mildly.
Often this is an indication of the total FW code not being nicely modular and over seeable.

It's going to be a beta and not a public release. Please don't get too excited!

How does it perform in comparison with firmware 1.0.8 ?

@Futeko

Please specifically test copy/move files to SD-Card and HDD using Media Center and via SAMBA/FTP remotely.
Android OS 6 and OS 7 have a more complex security model using the concept of Internal and External storage requiring specific rights and way of calling.
Old/existing APP's typically won't work for writing to External resources anymore, but reading will work normally.

when it comes out?
It will be more compatible with kodi?

Having a look at the OS changes made I doubt that it will make a serious difference for KODI. But it has better big screen support like PIP and Side-by-Side Windows, improved security features,  HDMI-CEC improvements, Volume Label support etc. So yes enough useful enhancements potentially available also for media players.

Lets see what Himedia does with it and if it is still based on the Android Smartphone version or it moved to Leanback this time as all others did (Android TV).

I would be more happier if they would solve the current mayor issues (like DVD deinterlace, bad colourspace handling) first, before the newer improovements benefited from the new OS. (Or presenting them so simultaneously would be the most superb. ;D)

Well, that two states looks -not just- a bit contradictory. Any thoughts?!  ???

Please?! You must turn ON 24p mode to get auto frame rate switching, matching the video source. Settings->HDMI refers to SOUND output, nothing to do with the picture, and Advanced->HDMI adatptation->Auto has to do with adapting picture settings to the target TV, evenly nothing to do with auto framerate switching regarding video sources.

That I understood from the translation from Russian  on auto hdmi it changes the refresh rate automatically in beta FW  android 7.
Auto mode on HDMI. :P

I planned to test video files playback with 24 p ON mode (with auto frame rate function) soon. Just now I did not have time for that. Sorry for the delay.
Now I can confirm HW decode mode on MX Player and VLC Player with HEVC files. And I can confirm, no any problem with AceStreamMedia.

Nice testing on new firmware.
Has the DRM protection been enabled in the latest FW? I have issues with apps saying that they cannot play on the device cause its rooted ( not DRM protected)
