Q5 4K3D. 18-SEP-2015. FIRMWARE HMD-3.0.1.1 FUTEKO-EN

[Computerfrak]

I have the following issues with the firmware 3.0.1.1 on my Himedia Q5-4K3D Player:

1. 3D movies (ISO/MKV) are after switching from 3D -> 2D no longer play with 24Hz but with incorrectly 50/60Hz.

2. Furthermore, lacking an automatic adjustment of the resolution. In Android menu can have only one fixed resolution eg 1080p 24/50/60Hz set. For movies in 4K (3840 x 2160) resolution during playback will not be automatically converted.

3. Audio dropouts by MKVs H264 with DTS-HD, for example The Expendables 2.

4. With the internal Media Center I can not play movies in 10Bit.

When I try to proceed with the update, I see the Android green logo and then I see ERROR

Then it reboots

I am trying to apply the latest September Update 3.0.1.1

Because Amazon allows different sellers to sell on the same listing it's impossible for me to determine from the listing whether you have the 'European' or Chinese version of the Q5. Some of the question answers on the listing imply the Chinese version. If you have the Chinese version (were Chinese apps pre-installed?) then it is impossible to install the European firmware.

Alternatively you may have the European version but be making a mistake installing the firmware. Remember to extract 'update.zip' from the downloaded archive. Don't rename anything.

With this update mediaplayer drop frames when playing BD-3D movies... Until now I had 1.0.8 firmware and those problems was not present. It seems that Himedia fix something then broke something... It is not normal that we need to test a product over and over again....

Is it true that the q5 drop frames when playing BD-3D movies with the latest firmware? Is there still any such experience?

Not dropped frames, but microstutters and speed-up issues. 23.976 is rendered at 24.000.

Hello @magicoolje,

"With this update mediaplayer drop frames when playing BD-3D movies..."

This problem I have also!

[magicoolje]

Futeko how about that?

This is much discussed here and on the Kodi forum. Himedia know about it and are going to do what they can to get it more perfect. They continue to develop the firmware.

- Spelling mistakes in the player menu "3D mode change" there lacks the L in "Origion Mode" -> Original Mode.
- Various problems with HDMI CEC and handshake. Please check.

So, Does Himedia Q5 have best picture quality? I think Q5 case is better than H8, but I don't know. Has H8 got bluetooth?

Are you planning a Hisilicon upgrade for Q5/Q10?

langostino, please stop asking the same questions over & over here and in Kodi forum, and via PM. Get a HiMedia Q5 and be done with it.

Hi

I am new here at this forum. Just want to start off by saying Q5 is the very best android player among the ones I have tested.
Now, for the resent upgrade 3.0.1.1, it does fix the audio drop outs...almost. I was happy the first 1h45m of Avengers age of Ultron (DTS HD) but then the drop outs started again and lasted for a couple of minutes ... I tried with restarting the mediapayer but without success. The last 10 min of the movie it was fine again without drop outs.
All in all it is light years better than it was before the upgrade, but i still needs a little refinement I think
