THANK YOU,
I will give these a thorough read
My TV, the panasonic TX-xxDXU701, has ony 8bit HDR by manufacturing, but bright phosphors and good lighting plus processing engine which gives good HDR experience, at least acceptable. It was the tradeoff for the existing money. (if interested, a revies of the seris, comparable with mine: https://www.trustedreviews.com/reviews/panasonic-tx-50dx750 ).
As to Pcristi's post with the HDMI2.0 standards, I see only RGB settings in there, not YCbCr ones, and I do not understand them...
I will be back when I will know more.
Cheers.

Ok, since this FW is given positive feedback, I intend to finally update from 2.09.

But I don't want to lose anything. Want to retain all my app without reinstalling. Is it ok for me to update from the settings update option instead of doing the pin method?

updated with settings option, 2.1.0->2.1.1, like i usually do.

all is good, all is maintained.

Not for me!
Just upgraded and its wiped everything.

Furthermore, the update downloaded direct from the Himedia page says 2.1.1 but is actually 2.0.9.
So I have lost everything for nothing.
Thanks for nothing!

So, is subtitles skipping problem fixed or not. Only one person said so far the problem is fixed , sort of. Anyone else can confirm further?

So the subtitle bug with srt lines is NOT solved! All other subtitle formats as pgs or ass are skipping, srt (dvd embedded) does not!
I`m desperating

I updated my Q10 to 2.0.6 successfully last year. I now tried updating to 2.1.1. and get the following error screen while booting:

It indicates that the cache is full?! I checked the storage of the device and I only use about 700mb of 12gb. I tried applying the update with multiple different USB sticks. Can someone point me in the right direction so I can apply the update?

Thx in advance.

I have just tested with all the above formats EXT and EMB and no skipping occurred at all.

Can you link the subs you tested?

err... think u misunderstood.

i meant use settings option with usb local, firmware from futeko here.

not pin restore, not OTA download.

I was the one who asked  about updating from settings, so as not to lose any of my apps.

Since then (before your reply) I have already updated from settings and everything went smoothly, all my apps are intact.

The way I update is as follows:-
1. Download the FW 2.1.1
2. Unzip the file (you will get another file called update.zip)
3. Copy the file "update.zip" to the root of fat32 USB drive.
4. Insert the USB into Q10 pro and fresh boot (just to be sure)
5. Go to settings, choose the "upgrade" icon
6. Select "local upgrade"
7. It will take a few minutes to upgrade and reboot, so be patient.
8. The first time it reboot, it will take longer than usual to reach the main screen.

As I mentioned, I downloaded the file directly from the Himedia website, put the file on the root of a drive, chose "local upgrade", selected the file, update process completed and it wiped everything and was 2.0.9. I even re-downloaded the file and it was the same result. I have had to do a complete reset reinstall to get working again.

If you are using European model, you should download from Futeko website here,  not Himedia website.

samba server doesn't work

All HiMedia Android 7 FW has a same samba server version and for me working well. Probably your's problems is somewhere else then in HiMedia FW.

[Gisciple]

The new firmware is also present via OTA, because it is present on the official website.

No OTA here?

Can't see that option either

Hi, may I know why Q10 Pro Media Center LAN can't acess another media player hard drives and files (connected wirelessly using Samba), even though I can see the drives sda1, sda2 etc. When I click on them I get error which says no such files or folders.

However when I use Q10 pro ES file explorer LAN , I can see the drives and open the files from the other media player.
