aliexpress?

I have not talked about the Q10Pro in some time but wanted to get back to those who have asked me some questions.

I feel that the Q10Pro is pretty good as it does play back BDs, UHD BDs (iso and folders) with ease. With the auto frame rate patch/script I find that it does get it right.

What I don't quite like is the choice of colour space is not really as versatile. I believe this is more of an Android OS issue as most other boxes seem to get the same issues as this.

I hv compared it to the Oppo 203 (JB) version and I hv found that the images seem to be sharper and I believe its purely due to the conversion from YCbCr 4:2:0 to both RGB and YCbCr (4:2:2 or 4:4:4) is done better by the Oppo hence allowing slightly better images. There is some chroma resolution that is either converted wrongly or with some errors by the Android boxes. I don't have the correct patterns to back this up but will follow up with more info when I can.

I don't use Kodi or any apps, so the box is not really being used to the max by me.

if not mistaken, max is 8TB.
2TB and >2TB, different initialization procedure.
consult seller.
had it before. it is coming from an app u installed.

i think it is either redbox or freeflix HQ - remove them and see.

what is dts mt?

If such a format exist, it is probably an unpopular one.

Best to discard it, find replacement in dts, dtshdma or dtsx.

dtsx is not catching on like atmos although there are some titles with it.

audiowise, best to keep dtshdma, ddtruehd - these have become mainstream hd audio.

there is no atmos 7.1, only 5.1.2, 5.1.4, 7.1.2, 7.2.2, etc.

atmos requires use of additional speakers to fire downwards from ceiling or upwards to rebound from ceiling.

if u do not hv speakers connected and atmos enabled at the AVR, it won't do atmos, only truehd.

i'm not into atmos, can visit audio section to ask the pros for details.

What subtitle issue?

q16 cannot do astrogo, not old apk's, not current ones, never did.

becos the firmware cannot handle the app's fussy checks.

forget it, get another box.

no.

ugoos am6/am6plus cannot do astrogo.
minix u22xj still having teething issues, can't auto framerate switching... last i read.
himedia has nothing new and great.

given cov19+mco, etc... think few people working on anything.
best to hold, use whatever box(es) u have!

never used zidoo.... no idea.

Q10pro is still the best i have, serves all my purposes - playback + online streams.

can't help u... as i dun use nas.

i typically use portable HDD for playback.
sometimes, direct pc->Q10pro via wifi samba, works ok for me.

I'm using a NAS too and stream the medias to my player via LAN.  I'm using Kodi, so i think i only do these to start off my movies:

1. turn on the media player
2. Make Kodi in the 'Fav' list in the home screen, so just click Kodi when home screen is showing up.
3. in Kodi, just click 'Movie' menu and the movie posters are ready to be picked..
