okay so wrapper only best suited for nas/local playback. whereas no wrapper is better for stream app online.

so i wonder can the H8 do NAS playback from samba? Cause though i'd be using online app like ..... *cough  to stream, i also want to from time to time stream from my NAS DLNA samba over local router network to watch my own media i keep stored on raid hdd. Can H8 do that? or only the model that uses wrapper only can?
Also does the H8 support surround sound? because i got 5.1 surround system setup using yamaha avr  hmm.gif

sorry for many questions  smile.gif

Maybe you don't get me. Never use wrapper, Himedia box build in with native Himedia player, play offline streaming from local/NAS using Himedia native player(not wrapper).

When you stream Kodi addons, use Kodi player.

H8 support Samba, NFS, uPnP.

As mentioned in the thread, H8 support the below passthru to your AVR included 5.1 :

Audio codec : DTS, DOLBYDIGITAL PLUS, AC3 ( support DTS-HDMA passthru, Dolby TrueHD 7.1 passthru and ATMOS passthru )

thx for reply.

is there anything else recommended to get for this himedia device?  hmm.gif  is the default remote good enough to work with kodi? also do i need a keyboard?

Keyboard is not require unless you want to do heavy text input such as blogging or data entry.

It will be good to supplement with PC mouse which will help to navigate because some apps are designed for touch screen.

As per communicated with iflix, iflix only support tablet and smart phone only but not on android TV box.

HDTV and CloudTV iPTV are tested. MyIpTV not compatible because myIPTV do not support Android 5.x and above.

Ready stock, next business day dispatch. If you made payment today before 12 midnight, tomorrow morning dispatch.

Sorry bro, Miracast is not supported as mentioned in the thread.

Initially Q5, Q16 do support Miracast but has been removed due to Miracast stability.

There are few iptv service available in the market. Unfortunately we do not sell iptv service due to legality. You might survey the iptv first, I wil share with you if the device support or not.

Do you need another pc to use the skin? If yes, is it easy to use?

I'm currently using dune player and yadis as jukebox and it took me a lot of time to google and research on the internet before I finally able to use it.

Kodi skin could be change on the fly, why need to use PC?

Android box is always plug and play just like your Android smart phone. The advantage of using android player is because of huge Android apps repository.

Do you still have Himedia Q5 or Q16?

I read kodi review that Himedia H8 has nasty pop noise during play back when enable DTS-MA/True HD pass through to Amplifer, and Himedia Q5/Q16 has better PQ.

Sorry bro, Q5/Q16 already more than 15 months, we do not keep the stock.

P/S: many made the same mistake, regardless of Q5/Q15/H8, always use the Himedia native player for DTS-HDMA/Dolby TrueHD passthru to amplifier. Kodi is generic player, it took some time for Kodi to integrate with new chipset. The same repeated when Q5/Q16 are newly released.
