Need help please.  I have been  messing with this for hours and still auto switching is not working.

What I am looking for is the resolution to change between 1080p and 2160p.  I'm using Kodi as the player. 

I set the Box Settings Display to 2160 @ 30fps  - with this setting, it will play my 4k movies just fine, as long as the Wrapper is set to Kodi Player and not Wrapper player.  However, if then try to play a 1080p movie,  the resolution remains at 2160p, meaning it just upscales it I guess.  It should adjust the resolution to 1080p. 

If I set the Box Display to 1080p, and try to play a 4k movies, it downgrades it to 1080p - again ,it should change the resolution to 2160p.

I cannot have the HDMI Auto setting checked in Settings, because it will just drop to 1080p and never play at 2160p.  So this setting is worthless.

I ran the Auto Patch, selected option 1 to install it.  after the reboot I ran the run_me.bat file again and selected option 3 to force Auto ON.

Can somebody please confirm all the relevant settings to make the dam auto switching work so that I can go back and forth between 1080 and 2160?

if i am  not wrong, the patch every time box start catch the system resolution, so If you change the resolution need restart the box.

@switchblade --> 2160p24Hz or 2160p30Hz or 2160p25Hz show in Box Setting is wrong information display when scripts stack, information posted
http://www.futeko.com/newforum/index.php?topic=1043.msg7981#msg7981

autoFMTswitch -- not change screen resolution just fit framerate with fps.

- download last autoFMTswitch_1.0.10 download link in OP
- check in Setting/More/Display to have wanted Display set ex:  TV FHD 1080p50Hz or TV 4K 2160p50Hz
- Run run_me.bat and do uninstall (or Run uninstall.bat)
- Wait box for reboot
- Run run_me.bat and do install
- Wait box for reboot

If still not get running for you do install firmware with restore button and install autoFMTswitch_1.0.10  or wait for HMD 1.0.6.
New firmware HMD 1.0.6 will not need autoFMTswitch for majority of users.

@looun is true script catch the system resolution on start box, and is recheck every 1 second, if user change it from IR remote/BOX setting/Android setting.
If scripts is stack, box is reboot/power off when HiMediaVideoPlayer,  using Kodi with DVDPlayer and addon Hi-Frequency-Switcher are specific situation when display setting is 1080p23.976Hz and save it and Box Setting show 2160p24Hz.

Hello Looun,

Just to give some feeback about the last Auto framerate switching 1.0.10. I'm using in Kodi jarvis 16.1 and notice that when i used to play some TVShow series when playing and during the playing if i want to stop by "return" using Wrapper in Kodi, so have a black screen with switching framerate showing in my TV Panasonic VT50 and nothing happened instead of having few secondes after an error message to waiting Kodi close or close by "OK".

When i try to play a movie this time, and want to close during the playing, same way but no crash from Kodi and find again the menu back.

I have testing with and without the 24fps Close en Open and same way. See also micro cut when playing a movie but very small suttering. Thanks you

Ok, my mistake.  I thought this patch would help with the resolution issue.  So we still have that as a bug and no fix I guess.  I have to manually change the resolution between 1080p movies and 2160p movies.  When will this be addressed because this is painful!

update:  I will ask this question in the main firmware thread, as not related to this patch.  I'm sure the patch works as advertised.

If anyone's still have a nerves to test it, version autoFMTswitch_1.0.11
 - posible fix DVD PAL "vibrations" details etc.
 - in old FW HMD 1.0.1/1.03 maybe not work
 - test only with HiMedia 24Hz off

1.0.11
- add framerate in rate(FrcInRate) try to fit to fps (on this test down round)
Download link.

PS: pendulum video may look slow motion but more closer to Kodi witch supposed to play correct.

Feedback are welcome.

Can this be used with version 1.0.6 ?
