FW 2.1.1

Hello, I got a problem.

Q5 OFW 2.1.1
My tv is sony 65x900f.  Hdmi 2, "HDMI Enhanced mode " enabled.
Output 2160p / 60hz / ycbcr 420 10bit.

After I play a 24hz stream video and close it, ( use this app https://drive.google.com/open?id=16ZEICeRAItHDi7AUU3LNYuFcD95KfTKF) ,
then  play another 60hz stream video ( use this app https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Yi2A-r5UDeLR3XJT58y_jRVmkcbxOSAz ),
Output will switch to 30hz.

I am very sure that my HDMI is run as 2.0, I can choose 4k60p yuv444 8bit / 4k 60p yuv422/ 4k60p yuv420 10bit in settings.
Very confused.

OK...how can I verify if this patch it's functional...
Actually I run as administrator the .bat file then I've pointed to tvbox ip address, then chosed 1, and nothing happend. also i've tried with 9 to restart my player to see if comunicate with tvbox but also nothing... what is the problem?
Do I need this patch on CFW? or cfw has already in it?

L.E. I'm doing something wrong? because I didn't get the restart... My pc and tvbox are in same network , all devices conected to a switch on my little home network.

Patch is not working in administration mode - start normal by double-click.

- HiMedia 24Hz setting (Settings - Playback) must be set: ON for best results on FW 2.0.3 and later.

i con't find the setting in playback.

In the latest FW you can only set this during Playback in the HiMediaPlayer menu.

(One of the main reasons why i still stick with the previous FW).

Hi,

fmtswitch is not working anymore for me and i dont know why..

First my setup:

Himedia Q10 Pro
CFW 2.1.4 from moere22
fmtswitch in his latest version: 1.3.9.1

The fmtswitched worked a few weeks ago like everytime. Someday fmtswitch was not working anymore. No fps switching, no resolution switching. All these things worked for me a few weeks ago. I thought: No problem, i will install it again, but its not working anymore.

What i've tried until now:

Uninstall the patch with uninstall.bat
Uninstall the patch in command prompt
Install the patch with 1 in command prompt
Install the patch with 2 in command prompt
Tried the option "Forced on"
Tried to install from another pc

All these things i've tried several times.

Nothing works. The command prompt works as it should without any error messages.

Any ideas? I dont want to flash the FW again

Thanks for any help and sorry for my bad english

Regards!

I'm currently running your firmware here on my Q10 - https://www.futeko.com/newforum/index.php?topic=812.msg30781#msg30781

Do I need this auto framerate switching patch or does your build already do this if set in settings? 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.

Thanks.

I installed this firmware and it works great without any frequency patches on my system. It doesn't come with this particular patch preinstalled as the only patch that is pre-installed is the KODI version Hi-Frequency. Regardless I haven't enabled any patches and so far works like a charm...I even have 24hz turned off in the HI-Media settings as it works better with it turned off. As a side note I'm running a 5.1 system with a non 4K TV. Nothing fancy but it works well with my 12 year old Sony Home Theatre Receiver.

It could be a symptom of when the integrated patch switches frequency rapidly back-and-forth for some unknown reason. Have myself experienced some similar with some older CFW, but that happened only at the very beginning and the end of the video playback back than. So it could be entirely different stuff, but I would still keep on be aware of it because of the sake of the health of the display.

Good morning
I have never used the patch and wonder if it works with the OFW 2.1.6
If it doesn't work however, I have to set "ON" in the section
PlayBack> Frame rate adaptation?
Thank you

I've just installed the last CFW from pcristi.
is it necessary to install the patch or does it come with the CFW?
