It is OBVIOUS that we have a different idea of smooth playback.
But that is no big surprise since you are a  big lover of FI techniques.
I for one like to keep all those wonder weapons for better viewing OFF

24Hz is all bla bla. There is no source for 24hz. This can only be self-created stuff.

There is:
BLU-RAY = 24P = 23.976 Fps

No, there are:
 bluray at 24fps, only 3 or 4 ;
 and  lot of live TV or music bluray at 29.970 (30000/1001) fps.

No, I read carefully, but now I am talking to Looun.
If I understood him correct, he wrote that Android players aren't able to play 23.976 movies without stuttering/freeze, but the Himendia players should do it correctly, without the freezes.
But thats wrong.
I just tried it directly HDMI to the Sony TV, and the 23.976 pattern cannot be playes stutter/freeze free! 
So too the Himedia players f.e the Q10 Pro  are NOT able to play 23.976 files without mini freezes.

no, true HDMI output 23.976 it's big issue for android , because need lot of work to fix the firmware.

Nvidia shield after 1 year  with 2.0 firmware have support 23,976
Amlogic soc after 6-12 month. 

Himedia Q5/Q10 need 2-3 month to fix the firmware( from 1.0.9 ) without any issue, No stutter or freezes.

Hisilicon V200 it's very new soc and q10 pro is the first  android box. Himedia and hisilicon need some time to fix the firmware.

Looun is right,  I trust himedia, i like my Q5 4k3D and like the previous gen. in a few month ( may be this fall ) the q10/5 pro will be one of the best  android box

Aha, I think, now I understand.
Himedia WILL fix the Firmware in the future, but at the moment it is NOT possible to output real 23.976.

Correct?

I have the q10pro 2 days now and I must say that I'm not impressed so far. My old Himedia 900b has better PQ in my pioneer plasma fullhd tv. I'm still in the process of setting it up but can't find the right twitches to get the same picture quality as 900b. I understand the importance of kodi and all the other stuff but in the end the main thing i'm concerned is the PQ. Still hope i'm wrong and the machine turn up to be great but for now i'm disappointed. If someone has the right settings please share it with us

Which videoplayer do you use? Kodi or Himedia?
If Himediaplayer try the Imprex Engine Settings.

I use Himedia player. I haven't install Kodi yet.

[beautyseeker7]

I tried the imprex engine but till now i can't find the picture that matches the quality i have with the 900b

[beautyseeker7]

I'm waiting for the new firmware because there's also an issue with the Greek subs and that's why I haven't installed kodi yet. I'm not rushing things up because i want to set it up right. I just tell that my first impression didn't had the "wow factor" that i hoped . As i wrote before i already have the Himedia 900b that plays excellent without any adjustments at all . I disable the imprex engine and all the filters but the picture isn't what i expected from a new machine with a brand new chip. I'll deal this weekend with the settings and i let you know from Monday.

In standard settings many TVs have awfull setups.
The are set too bright, too much contrast, too much colour, and of course much too much sharpness.

If you do not calibrate your PC, Laptop and even your beamers and TVs, and you suddenly get a very good player, you are not satisfyed with the picture result.
So first calibrate the TV and then judge the Mediaplayer.

For me the Pro has very good picture quality.

But on the other side, picture quality judgement always is subjective.
Hehe, so, what tha heck is good picture quality?
