HDR aspect ratio problem.

[maelor]

The box will play 4K and HDR. The problem you refer to is only for 4K videos with unusual aspect ratio (not 16:9). HiMedia will fix it.

It can play 10bit (10bit colour) absolutely fine. It will not play the one specific format, Hi10P H264.

Has anyone succeeded in ripping a 4K Blu-ray disc  to a Highmedia box? So far all attempts have failed for me

I don't think it's possible to rip 4K Blu-Ray yet. The encryption hasn't been hacked.

This "one specific format" is one of the most important ones when I purchase a 4K HDR Mediaplayer.

I was long time away from this forum and have not used the box as I was disappointed and tired about the framerate issues and now I come back to play the first HDR files and what happens?
What keeps HiMedia from speedy replying to this issue as I think that this should be easy to fix as it works perfectly for 1080p movies and 4k without HDR probably?

This is no fun anymore, I can really tell you that I will not purchase any HiMedia devices again.

Let me echo this - those files are the most important ones 4K with HDR, and the reason I chose the Q10.

There is no 4K HDR video on the whole internet with Hi10P H264, so don't worry. All HDR and most of the 4K is encoded with h265 or x265.

What is that telling me?

That is 100% correct. AACS2.0 is not hacked, so there is no access to the media on the disc, since it is protected aka scambled.
There is even no drive able to read 4k-BDs currently. Pioneer is soon releasing the world wide first devices to read 4K BDs with selected.
All completely save. Far from being able to rip anything from a disc.

There are 4K HDR HDMI rips out now from UDH Bluray. They are encoded with HEVC 10bits, and look very close in quality to the original discs, and these are the ones that are having the aspect ratio problem on the Q10.

BTW, I have an OPPO 203, and it plays those rips just fine, so it is really a Q10 bug.

Ah, now that is interesting! I downloaded several software packages which claim to rip 4k blu-ray discs to ISO files (trials only, I didn't pay for them!). They all copied the discs but the Himedia box would not play them! Nor would my desktop using Power DVD! I had assumed that any Blu-ray drive with BDXL would handle 4k discs.
I'm not that concerned at the moment as I only have three 4k discs, the freebies that came with my Samsung 4k Blu-ray player, so I can watch them on that.

They are not traditional disk rips but copies made with HDMI splitter cable and later remastered with HDR colorspace.

Please keep on topic HDR aspect ratio problem on HiMdia Q10/Q5 Pro.

Open on General topic for HDR rips, quality, remastering.

That is so wrong! WHAT IS "HDR colorspace"

Thanks to spot it, I meant HDR and B2020 colorspace.

Just to clarify:
it is an Wrapper problem and not an Himedia specific problem, right?

Afaik it's a HiMedia Player app problem.

When is the update coming at last? or must I buy a new media Player?

HiMedia say mid March. I would say within two weeks.
