My information is direct from talking to Himedia.

Also, other RK3368 products do not claim 7.1 or ATMOS.

Do you know if the H8 will work the same way as the Q5 does with the HiMediaWrapper and external player.?

Initially it won't. Whether a wrapper and external player will be useful for the H8 will depend on whether there are significant differences in format support + performance between Kodi internal and the hardware app. RK3368 is listed on the Kodi wiki as being supported for hardware decoding so the differences should be minimal making a wrapper unnecessary.

However,  I have requested that Himedia provide a wrapper for H8 as a back up. So full hardware decoding from the hardware app is an option. It won't be hard for them to create a wrapper app for H8 so I expect that they'll do it.

Well, if you want 3d iso to be played from within kodi,  you need that wrapper cause kodi doesnt support 3d iso (mvc)


I'd agree with that..

and the Vietnamese sites are still claiming that it does DTS-HD and Dolby Atmos. Here's a different one:

Mort..

official english site of himida NOT report Audio HD http://www.himediatech.com/h8core.html, and the must import RK3368 not have ExpressX Display Processing (Imprex Processing Engine) for better picture quality!

NOTE: there is also Dolby Digital EX and Dolby Digital Plus relesed before dolby TrueHd have support 7.1 ,so it's support  7.1  it's not equal have support audio HD.

The interesting thing is that Himedia are not claiming ANYTHING regarding the audio capabilities on their website...

Doesn't appear to work with SMPC 15. SPMC probably needs updating for RK3368.

I assume that I need to deinstall first existing Kodi before installing this file?  Can't install existing file, something is wrong with this file or need the deinstall existing version.

Someone experience?

Marcel

You to uninstall existing Kodi first. So Settings - More - Apps - Kodi - Uninstall.
