How do I get "real" 4K with Kodi player
« on: January 24, 2017, 08:28:45 PM »
On my Q5 pro runs Android 5.1 update 1.0.9 and Kodi 16.1. All movies on an ext. storage or on my NAS runs smootly.

Playing back a 4K movie with Kodi player, or with Wrapper gives a remarkable difference in sharpness. It seems Kodi gives a 1080P picture, while the Wrapper gives the real 4K.

I really like to watch my movie using the Kodi player, because the subtitle sync possibilities and the downsampeling feature of DDTrueHD7.1 soundtracks. My old receiver only supports 5.1.

Kodi knows it's 4K, because it's indicated in its "taskbar" .

Do I have to upgrade to Android 7, or Kodi 17, or both to reach my targets?

tnx
Gert

Kodi 17 will not give any HD audio unless you use wrapper....
