Q5/Q10 Pro Custom Firmware

[manley]

In Kodi Output Config I found it is best to select "Best Match" as this sends the audio signal as close as to the original which "Optimized" doesn't. I'm not going to say this will solve your issue but the best match should in theory be the best setting.

Well......

I uninstalled the kodi app  and installed the Kodi shitty build app.

Himedia  settings :
hdmi output RAW
spdif output  RAW
HBR output   RAW

KOdi settings
number of channels  :2.0  ( tried various configurations )
output configuration:  optimized
volume control : 90
maintain Original volume on downmix : activated
resample quality :  Medium
Keep audio device alive 1 min
send low volume noise : activated
Allow passthrough :  activated

all passthrough settings Dolby digital and so on  : activated

Tried both settings : set to kodi player and set to wrapper player.

And still.......no multichannel.

If i play from usb using himedia player .... crispy multichannel sound
So.......im going slightly insane  lol.


Any final thoughts other than a big sledgehammer?  Im of to bed.........

thx !

Does anyone have a problem with the Google Play Store in Q5 Pro Custom 2.0.4. ?? it just doesn't open for me.

Manley,

I reinstalled the 2.0.3 version for the 1.527.631 time. And  tried all settings ....again. And suddenly with best match the blue light on my Sony 5200es turned blue and DTS.

finally, happy again

And then......turning off the Q10Pro.
And as if this shitty box has a life of its own......   DTS  or any onther kinda multichannel  is gone and when i switch it back on 5 mins later.

Im going slightly insane.

So......today i unplugged it waited a few mins and hooked it up again. Not all Kodi settings were preserved,  settings set again and then......DTS was back and stayed that way.....

I dont know why or how.......but it finally works

Is this new version also with downgraded HiMedia Player (from fw 2.0.3)?! And why did you downgraded it at first place? Because the lack of airmouse support, or something more serious?
As far as I know the HiMedia Player in 2.0.3 still had the HDR aspect ratio bug, or did you managed to fix with it somehow?

Thanks for the reply!

HDR aspect ratio bug is SDK bug binary library dependent and  not HiMediaVideoPlayer apk bug, so not present on CFW firmware v2.0.4 event HiMediaVideoPlayer is downgrade from 2.0.3 for Airmouse/HiControl input support. Nothing need to be fixed on HiMediaVideoPlayer apk.

Thanks
But nbc sport not working (ver 2.7 remove amazone)

[netguru]

direct flashing possible without losing data?

[tmihai20]

If you flash it from within the existing firmware (and not by starting it with the back button pressed) it should upgrade without losing data.
