Can you switch duo audio with stock player in Q10? H8 not able to do that. I used KODI to play my video files and it can switch audio.

not sure what u mean.

if u mean if there are multiple audio tracks on a file, and u can't change from one to another in h8, i am surprised.

becos even 5-6 yr old players incl q5ii first gen can do that.

I meant if the video that I downloaded come with 2 audio cantonese/chinese. it can swtich using KODI player but not the stock player in my H8.

Kind of backward technology.

so, u r always stuck with the default audio track, can't switch?

r u sure u cannot do that with h8?

or u have not used the feature with the menu button?!

the native player in h series cannot be that diff from q series.

canto/mandarin is basic.

there are files with as many as 15 audio and 15 subs - european, asian, arabic...

even 5 yr old q5ii can do that!

now, even better still with q10pro: if u have no subs, u can download the (right) subs while playing that file - the player has sub providers built in.



kodi player is used in devices if the native player is poor or no native player.

q series player is good, no need for that.

in fact, q10pro now has a wrapper to wrap kodi streams, bypass kodi player and play with native player to get better control and picture quality.

however, at this time, that only works with local playback via kodi17 - incl 4k , hd audio files.

waiting for next firmware to do the same for online kodi17 streams.

I just start using it. I got it from @Nicety, he installed lots of streaming app for me. tested a few and i decided to reset the whole box. haha. So now is empty. Popcorn and Showbox is good i guess, correct me if im wrong.

Pls suggest. I am looking for a clean launcher too.. The original launcher look so boring.

I saw the wrapper app, i still wondering whats that. thanks for the info. By the way, can the native player read .srt file together with the .mkv. Both in the same folder and name (Korea drama subtitle)

ooo... how did u reset the whole box?

what firmware u r on now?



becos i have more than 1 box, i split up the functions between them, not put all in every box.

q10pro can do a lot of things, some may fit your needs:

.. kodi17 alone is big; use quasar addon, all yr available storage in the box will be put to good use every time u use it.
.. popcorn - the current version is good; like quasar, all yr available storage put to good use.
.. (showbox and others are inferior to popcorn and quasar)
.. iflix - works good, hd included.
.. mobdro, china/chinese apps if interested.
.. youtube, browser
.. spotify - nice music
.. utilities - i use file manager asus for file transfer over wifi; mobi backup/restore files/folders.
.. media center to play files from pc or another client over wifi.
.. usb play back - 2160p, 1080p, bdmv, hd audio, 10 bit, 60hz, hevc... all of it - this one is my major use.

of course.

that again is basic.

can do that since years ago!

I am android 7. Not sure about the himedia firmware.

Thanks for the suggestion. Are you using and launcher?

Very sure! I tried all the buttons even using mouse to click on the audio bar. NO selection. LOL

but I'm okay using KODI to play my video because the fast forward/rev is much smoother.

about the sub. no go also. LOL anyway if I wanted the sub. I normally download them and put it into a same folder. I used to do that for korean dramas or movies.

if it shows android 7, it has to be 2.0.1, current.

u downloaded via OTA, i wud think.

launcher... i have used 3rd party launchers before - apex and nova, free from playstore.

both are acceptable, just take a bit of work to set it up, set it to default, looks like a pc desktop.

however, i now prefer to use the native launcher - simple and fast.

the audio track and subs switching cannot be accessed by the mouse, only with the MENU button at lower right of the center square of remote.

for rwd/ff, both mouse and remote should work fast.



but if what u described is true, then h series belongs to the group of devices with an inferior native player, better off play via kodi.

i have never used a h series, only q series... so, i can't comment further.

that, i better let other h series users comment...

Noproblemo. If only from the remote menu button than the stock player in H8 does not have the feature. LOL

I'm Happy with KODI. so far so good.

The seller upgrade for me.. I asked for it.

Wow another Q10 Pro user.... Congrats! How much did u get it?

Long press the Menu button to clean the cache and ram.... It's a good shortcut

The poison is strong

AVFAN doing a fantastic job spreading it

time u get one la..!

the best thing about it is has yet to fail to play any video i get my hands on.

q16 loses out in this sense.

man, it is a great box, try it!

KNS the Q16 still going strong how to justify replacement? Even the bini muda (A95X) not as good as bini tua 😁😁😁

Owner of q10 pro......connected to my ancient pioneer sclx-82.......

Not so ancient if it has hdmi, hd audio.

I hv an onkyo like that, still rocking.

Only thing is it will not passthru 4k.
