Next Android 7 firmware (2.0.3?) update

Wrapper is not working with streams!

Wrapper was not designed to be used with streams and will never work with streams.

Add-ons and streams need Kodi internal player.

I'm confused.  then why does it use wrapper in kodi?  I think this box sounds good with the kodi media player.   It would be nice for the wrapper to be used on the android apk's

Maybe we should send our complaints all themselves directly to HiMedia, then they might get it? This is the address: export@himedia.cn

Email sent. Good idea.

Official kodi released an update. 17.1, now some audio passthrough works. Only stereo is passing through. No surround sound is working. Not even Dolby Digital AC3. Oh and I  notice no Dolby  digital transcoding. But transcoding is available on phone version. I still have to patch up to official q10pro firmware.

Are we supposed to get an "official" 2.0.2 or whatever numbering HiMedia is given any time now or is this beta 2.0.3 firmware the promised Android 7.0 update for the end of March ?

The promised official update is delayed. The test firmware I posted on this thread is just to provide a snapshot of where we are at.

Let's be fair here is it, as they did't say what year it would be released did they.

I hope that Q10 pro can pass this tests in ONE player....

I've only been able to use the wrapper once.  The sound was so much fuller, but now it never works.  Is this a bug?  Using Android 7 & kodi 17

No bug.  Full HD 7.1 audio passthrough works fine with both versions of Android and Kodi, using the wrapper.
Reinstall the wrapper if it is not working for you. See the FAQ.
I even got the wrapper to work with SPMC (see separate thread).

Wrapper is not working with st

I GAVE UP ON THE WRAPPER

OK, I installed it, and it didn't brick my Q10 Pro , and everything seemed normal after the long setup at the beginning, I started changing my setttings (display, sound, time zone etc) then I logged into my google account to access the Google Store and install some usual apps that I always use with this device, such as Free FTP Server, etc then it started giving me force closes on everything: First Google Store, then the rest.
I rebooted a couple of times, but I am not even able to test audio or video capabilities, because it still force closes on everything, i can start media center but as soon as I access one of my storage drives, it force closes. The most I could do, was to get into a list of video files in one hard drive, but as soon as I tried to start playing any of them, it force closes. So basically the whole Android System seems unstable . I have to go back to 2.0.1 ( I hope I can do that without brickingt it).

It shouldn't be as unstable as that. We tested it with no forced closes at all.

You can install 2.0.1 the same way as any other Android 7 firmware. Restore button method.

I have installed 2.03 on monday and after a few quirks it seemed to be fine.
However starting today i am facing the same crashes as domifier describes.
Looks like stability issues after all, will perform factory reset to see if stability improves.
