hi, everybody!
i am from malaysia and have been reading this forum for a year now.
i have been using himedia boxes for >6years now; first one being q5ii non-emmc, latest one being q10pro for just about a year.
thanks for all the great tips, firmwares as well as cautionary notes.
overall, i am happy about himedia boxes and that's why i stick with them over the years.
i do a lot of playback with bdmv, hd audio on my home theater.
kodi, i used to like it a lot in the early days but now, just using it for quasar online streams where i can get dd/dd+ audio which is good.
i do not care about the library or nice thumbnail displays, just like to go straight to play the video with the native player.
i decided to register here today and make this maiden post becos i felt that firmware 2.0.8 is worth a mention - it is good!
i know most people here do not care about the 2.0.8 changelog but himedia has done something marvelous for users in southeast asia.
and i like to acknowledge that.
for years, they did not do it but a major competitor did, but finally it came through:
2.Optimization of APP compatibility?Myk+?
that was it. with this improvement, i am able to use a very popular app, an online app version of a local iptv provider.
Myk+ is for Vietnam which is great for them now, but it works also for Astrogo in Malaysia - that's what i wanted.
I suspect it also works for similar iptv providers in Thailand and Singapore but pls correct me if i am mistaken.
so, sometimes, it is impt to consider how himedia or any manufacturer for that matter, need to spend their resources on needs arising from different users in different parts of the world.
in summary, kudos to himedia for taking care of users in my part of the world!
and thank you futeko..com for the good work so far that i have benefited greatly from.
cheers.
