Updated to latest

Hi, old topic but constant and frequent issue to others as well. Identical, and now we are in firmware 2.1.7.  Same problem, word by word, to some others that I know, too.
Laptop speedtest.net (ookla) over 900mbps both up and download on al llan wires including q10pro's own one, then q10pro goes less than 50mbps down, 115 mbps upload. Time to get rid of it, will go to NUC HTPC. Sorry for the great quality of the image, though... Also tried to install 2.5GbE usb3 adapter to no avail, could not install... Time to let it go.
Cheers everyone.

Hello,
on last version firmware.
Why don't we have an option for Display Setting for 1080p/24Hz, only for 1080i, and only for 50 and 60Hz? Asking for trying to eliminate the black screens at the beginning and and of every movie, when the handshake for 1080p/24Hz occurs. Cheers.

I discovered that, too. Thanks, is is better, but not OFF completely, still there are handshake issues at every beginning and after every end of video (coming back to Kodi menu), but apparently not BlackScreens anymore.

  Sometimes it is not enough to go with setting AUTO for subtitle encoding. People translating sometimes mix up encondings and I had every time to set manually AUTO or Central Europe (ISO8859_2). Otherwise strange signs instead of subtitle. Cheers.

Hello Pcristi.
How do I use this subtitle changer? I take one font from the folder, rename it subtitle, and run the command?
And to go back put back initial subtitle.ttf and run command or put ARIALUNI.ttf renamed subtitle and run command? Cheers.

Excellent point. Likewise here.
What would be from your standpoint a good HTPC configuration and what software environment?
Not considering other highend alternatives like OPPO205, XBOX OneX (scorpio)?
Cheers.
