it is kuaibo tv box, always using the apk including VST, dianru HD, PPS, all are unable to get full internet speed

nicety, thanks for remoting in to check on the 7.1 truehd issue the other day.

you mentioned that only the normal truehd 7.1 is supported by Q16.

TrueHD 7.1 Atmos is not supported by Q16.

Question:
1. How does one know whether it is running normal 7.1 true hd or Atmost truehd?

2. Can a feature request be raised to himedia to include truehd atmos in new firmware?

Thanks

i see...
if the apks and dns are not the best ones, u will surely not stream well with them.
there were times when i got full hd on vst and pptv but very hard now due to geoblocks, etc.
now, i tend to stick to hitv and puding which still work well.

yr case, i think only a good vpn will get the device to stream well but that will come with a cost.
also, unifi5 will probably not allow you to stream the highest hd videos.
my unifi10 ethernet q16 can sometimes get the highest, 蓝光 smoothly but usually 超清 or 高清.

Any suggestion on VPN? I gonna try it. Yes, now only the puding able to run on better speed

no, i dun hv any to suggest; i m still looking for a reliable one as backup when the unifi quota problem recurs, and i expect it to.

but do google, there may be some with free trial period.

if still considering new device, himedia q16 is probably among the best - large memory required to take more apps and stream 1080p from certain sites like popcorn time; usb playback with native player is simple and effective incl iso/bdmv/dtshdma files; easy to use samba; comes with hitv and mangotv for chinese videos. plus seller nicety's great service, as mentioned by many here already!

Thanks, I saw the post he mentioned a "skydrive". What is that? A website?

i hope u already know this thread is started by and for use by seller nicety in this commercial section, so you can ask him!

anyway, nicety's skydrive is a private site for his customers to dwnld stuff - firmwares, apps, updates, tips, etc...

better he explain to you...

Item received this morning. Highly recommended.

Bro, the China givernment blockage alternative solution has been shared by my customers at the below thread, remember to thanks to se3333 if you get it work with your device.

To be noted regional restriction is by the app developer due to license infringement. You can use various method to by pass the regional restriction as mentioned by AFVAN.

As always mention in my thread, to enjoy the free stuff in the Android box, all buyers should share there experience and findings in the forum in order to optimize the utilization of the box.

Not all apps are lagging if you choose the right app and have sufficient internet bandwidth. Good apps leveraging p2p technology or buffering to overcame slow internet connection.
(P/S: 5M unify does not mean you get 5M over the world, Internet is international network, the bottleneck could happen anywhere else depend on the location of the content server).

So sorry I took some time to troubleshoot your problem, finally got good advise from one of my AV expect customer, thank you to Mr Lai.

It is confirmed that TrueHD 7.1 Atmos passthru is not supported since Atmos just annouced by Dolby in August 2014, normal TrueHD 7.1 passthru works very well.

1). To identify it is normal TrueHD 7.1 or Atmos, please refer to the original source blue ray disc, you can verify from www.blu-ray.com

2). I have raised the request to Himedia, hopefully they could add Atmos pssthru into the future firmware.

Could this media run with VPN without root?

If using android native vpn, any Android player also could run vpn without rooting.

Most ppl use the wrong method to run vpn then rooting require because VPN is part of the protected Android Kernel.

Sorry, you mean local VPN? Tun.ko installer is needed to run VPN right?

Native VPN mean you activate VPN from Settings -> More -> VPN, without install any extra app via standard VPN protocol PPTP or L2TP.

None native VPN require to install additional APK file.

Dear all, did anyone try Q16 Quad use both HDMI output and AV output to connect 2 TV and play movie at the same time ? Work for both TV or just one ? can anyone share your experience if you try it before ? thanks !!

Just tested your scenario with HDMI and AV output to 2 TV, sound is ok but video need adjust the video to lower resolution to suit the AV cable which normally NTSC or PAL. Just sent the photo to your Hand-phone.

i played with that a bit before with q5ii, similar results.

seems to me there is only one common single video output, i.e. if set to hdmi higher resolutions, the av composite output can't work on crttv. if set to low resolution, poor video for hdmi. so, one or the other.

audio, i think different outputs. hdmi will give hd audio while digital coaxial/toslink gives core dd/dts and l/r gives stereo - all can be used at same time.
