Disappointed, what to do?

[HereIsTom]

I have the Q10 Pro now more than a year. Until Kodi 17 officially came out, the Q10 pro worked perfectly.
Mainly, I use him to stream via Kodi.
Recently, he is striking more streams with Kodi 16.1
Now I have also tried SPMC, but he also strikes the streams.
I have not tried Kodi 17.x because the audio passthrough does not work with the Q10 Pro.
I now have firmware 1.0.9 still getting up and dare not to update if I read all the problems here with the newer firmwares!
What can I do now? Wait for HiMedia to get a good update?

are you using the wrapper?  7.1 passthrough works fine using the wrapper with Kodi 17.3 and Firmware 2.0.3 (I don't stream, only playback from HDD and NAS).

Did you tried latest shitty build?

Wrapper does not work with streams!?

Do I need to update firmware first to use that shitty build?

Did you tried the latest version of SPMC (16.7.0)? http://spmc.semperpax.com/
This version is upgraded with the latest python (and the vulnerability bug fixed), so the streams not playing before must be fixed with this version (because of the old python - some streams didn't load because of SSL problems.). Forget about Kodi 17 and stick with Jarvis. It works perfect here.

Also if you want to test Krypton with Jarvis, you should use my Kodi addon for some thesting (http://www.futeko.com/newforum/index.php?topic=2004.0).
Try the 'High Bitrate Sample Videos' and then Sintel (1920x1080). It runs smooth on SPMC and on Kodi 17 I can get it to run as smooth (also with hardware acceleration off).  This is not the problem you're now having (streams not running on Jarvis), but it's great for some comparing

[HereIsTom]

Thank you, yes I tried the last version of SPMC, but didn't work with the streams.

Now I already have updated to the last firmware 2.0.3 and installed the lastest shitty build.
That work with the streams, they don't skip anymore and have HD streams, but it is very slow working.
Also I can't get Trakt.tv to work on this, installed the addon but its is not scrobbling and authorization in ** does not work?

[kaosnews]

Yes, there is a problem with ** and Trakt, I have a fix for that - but don't think I'm allowed to share here.  Try to google '** trakt issue reddit'  (just some random words... ahum ) and maybe you will find the solution there.  The problems you're now facing have nothing to do with the Q10 pro. android or Kodi - but with the add-ons failing.

[HereIsTom]

Ok thank you, is it a difficult solution?
I know it is not Q10 related, but I'm not happy its not working anymore since I updated the Q10.

As was stated, there is a problem with ** and Trakt and all the issues surrounding tv add ons. It is not the Himedia or Futeko's fault.

You are aware that those addons to which you refer are illegal and theoretically should not be discussed here or on the KODI forum.

Where do you use the Q10 Pro differently than? Or do you still download yourself?

Possibly this:

* Stop Kodi 17 streams from stuttering? In Kodi, go to settings -> Player -> Videos and set Allow hardware acceleration - Mediacodec (Surface) to OFF

Firstly it  seems to me quick fix is either A or B .
A. Revert to Jarvis 16.1 in which case unit works fine, but would lose complete functionality of many addons which now require Krypton install to geg Hd streams.

If you use the lastest version of SPMC (or FTMC) you have Jarvis with the lastet Python and so no problems with the addons demanding Krypton.

Firmware 2.0.0 is very old. I advise installing the Android 7 FW due to be released next week. If you can't wait then install CS custom 2.0.3 from custom firmware thread. Either will give stable system with working Kodi 17.

Then:

* Stop Kodi 17 streams from stuttering? In Kodi, go to settings -> Player -> Videos and set Allow hardware acceleration - Mediacodec (Surface) to OFF

Wrapper is only for local (LAN/SATA/USB) content, not streams. Installing it will make no difference to Kodi add-ons / streams.
