Fast Forward doesn't work as it should, if you fast forward greater than x8 the curser along the bottom of the screen doesn't move as it should, much slower. Also when stopping fast forward from x8 or greater it doesn't stop at the point you think you are at but tends to be much further on.

After more than a month of smooth sailing with the latest firmware, the "System UI has crashed" annoyance have resurfaced. The last thing I did was installing my 8TB drive.

Now to reflash again the unit.

Try Settings - More - Apps - All - 3 dots on the top - Reset app preference

Thanks for the tip bro, done the reflash already. Will test it when the annoyance will resurface again.

There will be a new firmware this week which will be a big improvement. We have been testing the beta.

system UI error fixed.
Samba password wrapper fixed.
Interface cleaner.
Big performance boost - much snappier throughout.

<1080p 23.976. not fixed in beta but we are promised it will be in final. upscale to 1080p23.976.

Full auto frame rate switching for Himedia player (and himedia player and wrapper) is on the verge of being fixed courtesy of pcristi/looun. There is a working test version. This also fixes <1080p 23.976 so even if Himedia don't fix it, it will be fixed. This is FULL switching. i.e. 25/50 fps -> 50hz. 30/60 fps -> 60hz. 23,976 fps -> 23,976hz. 24 Fps -> 24 Hz. 29.970/59.940 Fps  -> 59.940 Hz.

We have been told by HiMedia that the elusive 'microstuttering' problem will also be fixed within a couple of weeks. It was difficult to nail down. This may or may not be in new firmware.

thx for the info.
firmware ist still in its early stages, but it is the best kodi system i ever owned... and i've been using kodi/xbmc for 12 years.

Than you have never used a Mede8er-Box. That is a player. Kodi is a construction site

@futeko
What about the auto switching from 1080p to 2160p? If I switch manually to 2160p, although displays of TV in 2160, but that's never ever 4K. When I play a 4K video directly on the TV via USB, the picture is much sharper. All my devices are capable of reproducing 4k 60hz. The cables also.

From where did we get the new firmware? OTA?

Auto-switch to 2160p for 4K content should work. Android OS is in 1080p but when 4K video is played HDMI output will switch to 4K.

The new firmware will be OTA. You'll get a pop up notification on the box.

Hello and thank you. Okay, I'll wait and see. 

But Auto Switch does not work. Is Auto switch set in the setting on and I play a UHD-Video, then the on-screen information from my TV LG 75UH855V displayed only  1080P.

The same for me, 4K-UHD demo files get played in 1080p, not 2160p

Please wait for next firmware (should be this week). I expect this to be resolved.
