I am using an old Q5 4k3D, any benefit if I upgrade to Q10 pro?
Btw, just subscribed to Netflix, will Q10 pro run netflix on 4k if I connect it to 4k TV?

Just bought 4k LCD TV and connected to my old DTS home theater system.
Currently using Q5 ii I think, any benefits if upgrading to Q10 pro?

I will watch mostly 4k movies.

the way it works... source->box->avr->tv+ home theater speakers.
Q5ii is very old, can't do a lot of things, incl playback of 4k, 10bit, hdr, has problems with some DDtruehd tracks, some subtitles.
still, for a 7-8 yr old box, it is still blardy good for playing back 1080p, incl BDMVs, dtshdma - this is rare for such an old box.

now that u have new 4k hdr tv, u should get q10pro.
it will play anything u feed it with.
BUT... your avr of home theater is old... Q10pro will set it at max 1080p and dts/dd only.
4k, hdr, hd audio will be downgraded to what the avr can handle, i.e. u will not get the best video/audio.
now, since avr can only do dd/dts, u have nothing to lose by connecting q10pro->tv via hdmi, then tv audio digital output toslink/coaxial->avr.
this way, yr tv will do 4k hdr but audio will be just dd... and dd+/dts if tv has the capability.

get new box first, then get new AVR/home theater.

My AVR can't process HDMI signal, just pass-tru, my setup will be TV box -> HDMI -> 4k TV, and TV box -> coaxial -> AVR.

Err correction, setup is TV box -> HDMI -> TV, then TV-> optical (PCM) -> AVR.

Anyway, I tried to play Bluray files (not remux, the whole Bluray folders and files) on my Q5 ii, I thought it will play just like a bluray disc but no, it doesn't play on menu, and m2ts files very lag.

Anyway, what is the most preferred file format for 4k source?

Hmm...after I took a second look on my Q5, I am confused whether I am owning Q5 ii or old one, it has 3D printed on the front only, and back lable stated Q5 only.

I have a question, I connect Q10 pro with coaxial cable to my oold AVR which is capable of playing DTS/Dolby Digital 5.1.

But when I playback Bluray folder with TRUEHD 7.1 Atmos audio, my AVR can't receive any signal (or maybe can't decode it?), but if I choose 2.0 audio track then no problem on the AVR to receive the signal.

Anyone know what is the problem?

coaxial, optical are SPDIF - limited to DD, DTS; digital but not HD - cannot do ddtruehd, dtshdma, ddatmos, dtsx.

those, u must use hdmi + capable AVR.

Hi, I have a question regarding Q10 Pro, is the USB port at the side of the box ver 2.0 or 3.0? can I play 4k UHD movies from a pendrive by using the USB port?
