Even 480p comes out ok, which makes some SD streams very watchable.

A lot of people still think a 4k tv is useless unless u play 4k content, no diff with 1080p.

Maybe some 4ktvs have poor upscaling but i am sure the premium ones all have good upscaling.

the problem with hr q5ii is not software nor apps player.
its hardware, the chip cant do hardware encoding for h265, can only do software encoding thus quite lagged n not smooth

solution, buy new hardware with support hardware encoding h265/hevc

Q5pro, q10pro launched only in mid 2016.

Still in early 2015, could hv bought himedia h8 or q16, both can do h265.

Hi, I am getting black border on all the videos playback with MediaPlayer (Q10 Pro - Android 7). All other apps and video player like YouTube is able to display at 100% full screen with no black border. Issue found on MediaPlayer only. Note - MediaPlayer app itself is able to display at 100% too. Just videos cannot.

Any idea how to solve it? Thanks. smile.gif

Check its settings for an option to change aspect ratios or black bars.. Else, install Kodi.... During playback > Crop Black Bars.

"black borders"... the top and bottom black borders with cinemascope/widescreen videos? that would be normal, correct viewing.

or u mean u want to fit that into full screen? for that, u just press the lower right "menu" button at the center square of the remote control, find options, toggle between "fit full screen", "no full screen". fitting into full screen may not give u the right aspect ratio - u may get a distorted picture.

youtube and other videos already cropped, no need to manually adjust.

note some TV's have options for that too, u can try them.

below a kodi forum nov 2016 update, with some detailed reviews on devices' performance incl use of KODI, audio, 3D, h265, HDR capabilities.

Himedia Q5/Q10pro mentioned several times.

a useful read for buyers of new devices, read posts #1 and 2:

Tried that but nothing change. No such issue on Kodi. But I want to use built-in MediaPlayer which is smoother and better.

that, i am surprised.

older models using same remote will bring up a full menu for video, soundtrack and subs options.

possible changes with android7 firmware; u should want to know where to activate those options.

ask yr seller.. and perhaps other users of this model can help u.

i haven't got one yet!
