Hi nicety, any ideas how to setup the Q10 Pro to play HDR contents on latest LG UHD HDR TV? I have fews LG HDR demo which play properly thru the TV's player but have distorted image while play thru q10 pro. By the way, firmware 1.0.4 is going to release very soon. Hope can fix most of the bugs.

Bro, can you upload to any cloud storage such that I could download to test?

LG HDR Demo

You have to rename lge to mkv in order to play the file.
Anyway, I manage to play the HDR contents correctly on my LG HDR tv after I reset the display size in Q10 Pro.

Would like to share this link for auto framerate switching addon

received the package in perfect order, thanks!

Thanks for sharing bro. Will download and test personally.

Thanks for the acknowledge receipt :-D

it's not about the device but about kodi.

with kodi, there is one popular addon for that - quasar.

please refer to kodi thread as many are using it successfully.

takes a bit of work to set it up; options incl:

.. filter diff quality/size of files.
.. save in box storage or ext usb drive.
.. save or delete file upon exit.

Thanks bro, I have downloaded and tested the sample HDR files. Please allow me to share more about HDR with the forumer here.

Himedia Q10 Pro and Q5 Pro support 4K HDR, what is HDR (High-dynamic-range) mean ?

HDR is a technique used to reproduce a greater dynamic range of luminosity. The human eye, through adaptation of the iris and human brain, adjusts constantly to the broad dynamic changes ubiquitous in our environment. The brain continuously interprets this information so that a viewer can see in a wide range of light conditions.

None-HDR cameras take photographs with a limited exposure range, resulting in the loss of detail in highlights or shadows, in ordinary term is image too dark or over exposed as below photos :


The aim of HDR is to present the human eye with a similar range of luminance as close as possible to human eye, such as many real-world scenes containing very bright, direct sunlight to extreme shade, or very faint nebulae. This is could be achieved by capturing and then combining several different narrower range exposures of the same subject matter. HDR technology capable to merge multiple low-dynamic-range or standard-dynamic-range photographs into HDR images. The below photo is the result of the above 4 photo after processing :

This will be the first global Ultra HD STB chipset solution to support Dolby Vision high-dynamic-range (HDR) technology. Based on the powerful CPU and GPU capabilities of Hi3798C V200 chipsets and the Dolby Vision HDR solution, HiSilicon can provide a secure ultra-low power Android platform with impressive TV experiences for feature-rich 4K entertainment and gaming services.

What is 10bit color?

Typical Home HD video signals use 8-bit color, meaning that for each pixel, the signal contains eight bits for each of the three primary colors. Since there are 256 possible 8-bit binary numbers, you get 256 shades each of red, green, and blue. Combine the three together, and you get 16,777,216 possible colors (256 cubed).

That sounds like plenty, and to the naked eye, it is. But subtle differences between those 256 shades, impossible with 8-bit color, can help create depth and a sense of reality. That's where deep color comes in. With 10-bit color, you get 1,024 shades of each primary color, and over a billion possible colors. The below video explain further about 10bit color.

I placed my order with Nicety last week and received my Q10 Pro on Friday. Timing is just nice to demo the box over the weekends. Been busy playing with this new toy and hence the late feedback.

Package arrived in good condition and on time according to ETA.

I would like to give credit to Nicety for his patience in handling my question prior purchase. He pre-installed some apps that suits my requirement. He even provided phone number for watsapp purpose in the even issue arise. Not forgetting he drafted simple guideline for 1st time android box user! And lastly, his value added service is skydrive for existing customer regarding firmware upgrades/ new apps.

Overall, recommended and trusted seller.

Thank you for the compliment. Himedia is very good box, we would like to help our customers to fully utilise the box by sharing our experience.

Beside the support, we do encourage buyers to exchange their finding when discover any new good apps or any good functions.

"If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange these apples then you and I will still each have one apple. But if you have an idea and I have an idea and we exchange these ideas, then each of us will have two ideas." From George Bernard Shaw

Hi Nicety - Well received the Q10 pro in good condition and definitely a good player. Highly recommended.

Question - i also bought a 3 TB into hdd and assembled into the player already. How do I start using the int hdd?
