Hi,

Just rcv my Q10 pro last weekend with Mele deluxe air mouse.
A few quick questions
1) Mele deluxe can use to power off but power on not working. Using bundled Q10 pro can power off and power on ok.
2) When playing 4k HDR mkv using himedia media player aspect ratio is wrong as always shown as full screen only
3) When using himedia media player sometimes (24 hz content and TV auto switch to 24hz mode) when using return key to exit the movie, Q10 lost video signal to TV, need to press one more time return key then sync back to tv at 4K@60hz GUI.
4) Using KODI 17, exit the app takes a very long time and sometimes stuck at exit screen. Need to off and on the unit.
Else it is giving excellent PQ.
Kindly advise.
Thanks

2. how big is this 4k HDR mkv file? there are some bs ones, a few gb's only, bad stuff.

- from 10Gb to 50GB plus
- I confirm not file problem cos when I use USB playback on Samsung HDR TV correct aspect ratio
You can actually see HDR UDH lit up on TV when HDR is detected and play

3. are u using AVR, i.e. Q10pro->AVR->TV? if yes, what sequence u use to switch on and off?

- Q10 pro direct to TV and coaxial to SPDIF as AVR does not support 4K HDR passthrough
- actually I referring watching 24hz mkv and Himedia and exit mid day by pressing remote return and HDMI lost signal detected by TV. If I press return 2nd time on remote Himedia syncs back to TV at 4k60hz.. I suspect autoswitch freq bug in himedia.

Kodi - this thing has been there forever, not due to box but due to some crap in yr kodi build which happens over time as u add more stuff, play various links. to get rid of this, u need to keep kodi clean, i.e. use indigo addon/maintenance to regularly remove cache, obsolete addons and other dirt.
i am on android7, firmware 2.0.1, have not come across this wrong aspect ratio.

- the new 17.1 is really slow on exit. Kodi 16.x with many addons much faster to exit.
- new 17.1 native player also slows in playing big mkv files (20+ GB) from NAS. no issue when using Himedia media player using the same file to the same NAS.


BTW HDR like planet earth 2 fullscreen looks awesome on Samsung SUHD...

missed these comments for yours.

i have such files too, but have not had any aspect ratio issues so far.

as for the frame switching, it does not happen to me if i stay with native playback.

but it will switch if say i go from playback to kodi or some other app, which is to be expected.

i am using q10pro->4k avr->4k tv.

u probably want to try android7 firmware 2.0.1.

Thanks..nicety shipped the unit with 2.01..I have not installed any apps..apparently the HDR aspect ratio is a firmware bug...(see http://www.futeko.com/newforum/index.php?topic=1682.0 )...new firmware coming in May to fix this and Kodi 17.x audio passthrough

Hi,

Encounter an issue with Q10 pro firmware 2.01 on Nougat. Connected to a 4K display @ 60Hz. When playing SDR or HDR mkv over NAS using Himedia Media Player, if press Menu and Advanced, the Imperex settings cannot be adjusted or disabled. I enabled switch to 24hz mode
There is an error message Display is not in SDR mode.
Please advise. Thanks
