Q10 PRO FIRMWARE. 1.0.7-FUTEKO-EN. HMD-1.0.7 2016-08-10.190824

[aleister]

I  would like to report a problem with firmware  1.07 - somebody else reported this before, but I found it a bit confusing to understand, so let me try to repeat what the problem consists of:

I am using a JVC projector (X500) that only accepts 4K60 at 4:2:0

- If I setup the player to output the menu @ 2160p/24, then colorspace is set to 4:2:2 YUV, which is correct as it is the best option for my projector at this resolution/rate.
      - At this setting, If I play a 24hz movie, it stays at colorspace  4:2:2 YUV, which is correct

- If I then setup the player to output the menu @ 2160p/60, then the colorspace is set to 4:2:0 as it should (it is correct)
      - At this setting, If I play a 24hz movie, it switches to 8bit RGB (not correct, should use YUV 4:2:2)

Futeko, appreciate if you could report this to Himedia.

Regards.

So it sounds like it`s a known bug, correct ? I did not see any acknowledgements from Futeko, though.

HiMedia were pointed to the other thread last week: http://www.futeko.com/newforum/index.php?topic=1149.0

I think the problems are related.

In general we have asked HiMedia to review the switching problems with 4K colorspace / HDR and make everything work as it should. We've also asked for some documentation, which would make life easier for us all!

How do I get the HiMedia player (Playing wrapped via Kodi) to have subtitles off as default/prefered?
I only see the option to select default language, but not to set it default off.

Has been reported. It used to work like this till FW 1.07 but for DVD it was broken with this release. It still works for MKV and AVI etc.
In fact many essential things were broken with FW 1.07 please come with an update quick (at least to fix broken items).
DVD support e.g. dropped to an all time low: External subtitles broken, Auto frame-rate now assigns the wrong rates 25P/30P, PQ degraded clearly.

+1 for DVD support dropped in HMD 1.0.7 firmware
-  Auto framerate assigns the wrong rates:
   --  PAL DVD FrcInRate: 50.0 -- FrcOutRate: 25.0
   --  NTSC DVD FrcInRate: 119.88 -- FrcOutRate: 59.94
-  NTSC DVD audio out of sync because of FrcInRate: 119.88, FrcInRate need to be 59.94 for correct audio.
-  PQ clearly degraded
-  External subtitles broken (thx Nice Monkey I didn't remarks)

All firmware affected
-  Wrong chapter order for specific DVD
-  50% video DVD tested:
   --  can't play from specific position (seek not working).
   --  can't resume (probable connected with seek problem).

When I play a file from the internald HDD, Q10 uses the wrapper and plays with HiMedia-Player.
But, if I play a file from the NAS (Network Storage), it doesn't use the wrapper, and only plays in Kodi.

Is this a fault in firmware, or something I can correct in settings?
(Which settings?)

[futeko.com]

What type of network are you playing from? Samba (Windows), NFS, uPnP?

If you select the file in Kodi and press menu button do you get a 'play using..' entry in the menu? Does it have both wrapper and dvdplayer (Kodi internal player) options?

Was using smtp on PC and UPnP on NAS.
But after your reply, I re-connected NAS with smtp instead, and now it plays through the Wrapped HiMediaPlayer.
Thank you for the hint.

(But why does it has to be like this?)

Changelog:

1. Screen lock supported

What is that feature for? How can I use it?

Basically I need a way to protect access to my Q10 with 4 digit pin.

I only see the option to select default language, but not to set it default off.

That feature is just not there, which is very annoying.
Combine that with the default on imprex engine and the bad DVD playback support...
This player needs some MAJOR improvements.
