Later Edit: I am not certain but starting with CFW2.0.7 I suddenly started to encounter repeated, relatively frequent (several times every movie or TV series) interruptions of playback, with blackscreen and video signal cutback, the 4k HDR Panasonic Smart Tv recovering signal and resuming playback after a few seconds. After rewinding back a few moments and resuming playback to go through the problem-moment again, the same blackscreen did not occur anymore, not even one time, so I presume that the phenomenon is generated by Q10Pro/Firmware, not by video file. Just for you all to know, maybe someone can put 2 and 2 together.
I only play video files stored internally on a relatively new, error free and well-maintained HDD. Only alterations to firmware are by patching for More framerate, ROOT and SAMBA. IMPREX always OFF.
I will come back with impressions if going back to CFW2.0.6 is bringing back any improvement.

I have exactly the same issue since fw 2.06 and I have my media on network share...tried everything, nothing works.
Very frustrating...to the point I'm searching for a q10 alternative.

My movies and tv shows are on a lan network share, so it's not my case.
Thx anyway.

I've been having this issue with Himedia player for months both from official and custom firmware's (several versions). The last few times it happened I noticed I was watching a H264 movie and it's completely random, it doesn't happen twice in the same file at the same playback time.

I've reported it to Himedia without reply. Currently I stopped using Himedia player entirely, because I have a stereo setup I use Kodi internal player which is far superior with subtitles handling. NEVER happened with Kodi player...

Thx for the answer.
Unfortunately I have to use Himedia player because of audio hd limitations with kodi player.

I have tried with OFW 2.06 but the black screen issue is still there. :'(
I've also tried with other 2 hdmi cable but nothing changes.

Usually after 10 min. it starts ( I see that my AV receiver lost hdmi signal) and than it stops...bah very frustrating.

I have black screen issue too, but in my case it's completely random. Sometimes it never happens, sometimes I have to reboot  the machine because it happens every 5 minutes.
I'm on CFW 2.06 and Daydream set to off.
I will try with OFW.

Hi, Pcristi!

I have installed on my Q10pro your CFW 2.0.4 from 05.08.2017. (mediafire.com). In all respects, this FW is very satisfied with me. Just want to have NEW HiMediaPlayer! I do not need a mouse control. Can you please give advice on how to do this? Maybe you can place mediafire.com link with a HMP download file for replace from old to new?

http://www.futeko.com/newforum/index.php?topic=812.msg18226#msg18226

Sorry pcristi, I don't understand how to revert to the new himediaplayer.
I have to reinstall from scratch with paper clip method, using the patch?
And if I'll use this method(paper clip) I will loose all my settings ?
thx

Other Media Boxes / Re: Minix U9-H vs Himedia Q10 Pro
« on: May 24, 2017, 03:22:47 AM »
What are your thoughts choosing between these two players considering they both do 4k and HDR

MINIX U9!!!  because ALL products based on hisilicon chip (like q5/q10/egreat) cannot play 4K movies with HDR metadata correctly (hisilicon says hardware problem so impossible to solve with a sw update) HDR10 is mandatory for uhd movies so...MINIX U9 100% (could be compatible with dolby vision too!)
Bye

Where did you  read this thing about "it's impossible to solve!?

@Grifone1893
Did you check with  patch (experimental) for 2.0.3 fw on video output 3840x2160?
4096x2160 video output not yet supported.



I've checked on 3840x1600 files and it doesn't works.

For me the shitty build works perfectly with hdr files and with correct sizes (Oled LG E6).
My onlyissue is the frame rate. I used the patch (experimental) for 2.0.3 fw , but it doesn't works.
Ah, and audio only in DD.
