I faced the problem of poor performance players samba server. Transfer speed from PC to device was 20-25 MB/c. I did little patch for increase transfer speed. It change samba server parameters only. Now from device to PC 70-80 MB/s and about 70 MB/s from PC to device for me. Tested with 2.0.0 firmware.
I hope it will be useful not for me only.

LOL it's getting really hilarious, while many of these bugs/issues exists from like the release of these devices, the users had to and do better and faster job by solving them with their own patches, than the "expert engineers" at Himedia... (Don't know which smiley fits here better, so I go with them both: ;D >:()...

This is often the case, not just with Himedia.
The best products are usually the ones with the biggest and most active userbase.
Q10 Pro is quite open, easy for users to customise.
Thanks qqq1971. Good work.
-
I did not know we could improve the speed I copy to and from the Q10 Pro. Nice find. Does it set up a password for samba (or the username)?
Please do not complain about the few things the community is providing FOR FREE so everybody can have a better experience or improve something on our TV boxed. HiMedia never claimed we would get 100 MB/s for transfers using samba. You know, complaining only makes things worse. I have plenty of experience on XDA, some developers actually left just because of too many complaints. Let's just enjoy our practical TV boxes and thank the guys making these scripts.
-
I suggest this to a sticky thread.
-
Yeah, definitely. I was actually surprised to not have seen it before. It is a new topic. I will compare it to the old smb.conf. The script could backup the old smb.conf in case someone wants to go back to the old config.
-
OK, I have made it sticky. Also I've cleaned up the title so it matches the other patch threads.
qqq1971, I hope you don't mind but I have mentioned your patch and this thread to HiMedia. They may find some, erm, inspiration from it..

Of course. By the way, pcristi offered a more elegant solution. Besides, I have no way to test for Andriod 5.1.1 (thanks for his help on this).

I use my Q10 to play movies on my NAS over my LAN using SMB shares. Playback is good, since the recent fw 2.0 update, but I was curious if this patch would improve overall network performance when playing movies via network / smb shares.

Hello
Samba server optimization are for effected on Q10/Q5 samba client performance, you can try do some samba optimization on you NAS Samba server if supported. Will be better experience for user witch use Q10/Q5 like NAS storing movies and playing from other samba clients via samba share or copy movies from PC to Q10/Q5 Pro attached HDD.

Sorry, perhaps I did not state my question very well. I do not have nor do I need any samba changes on my server - it does just fine. My only issue was when I tried watching a movie with the Q10 via smb over my network. If I play the same movie from my same NAS server with my popcorn hour player, works just fine. Therefore I am asking if this patch will improve overall network performance on the Q10 for network speed - when accessing a smb share from my server.
After the recent FW release, I have had no issues with playback - knock on wood! That said, I figured if this patch would help improve network communications on my q10, then why not try it.
If these are good improvements, then they should be added to the official fw.
-
Thanks, it works. To all that use other name that workgroup - edit smb conf to change it before using the bat file.
-
@switchblade: you should really try it, it improves the speed when copying to and from the Q10 Pro.
I got a sustained 80 MB/s on mine copying from the Q10 Pro to my desktop (from the HDD connected to SATA port). It is way better than before. Thank you so much for doing this. My observation remains, I would backup the old smb.conf before making any changes to the existing smb.conf.

successfully installed, but with slow shutter speed

I don't understand the question.
This patch makes no changes at all to your PC.
