Hi guys, need a help.

I have a Q10pro, it seems to me that the himedia's default player cannot recognize a video_TS (DVD file) hence need to use Kodi. I have a lot of DVD collections. While it does play on Kodi, issue is I'm unable to passthrough DTS to my amp via HDMI, it goes to PCM. I've set as "expert" under audio setup in Kodi, and have enabled passthrough, dolby receiver ON. Issue is I'm not able to see enable DTS capable receiver. It seems to be missing in Kodi. I've tried everything. Any clue guys?

thanks.

i hope u r on latest firmware 2.1.1.

native player can read/play DVD video_ts folder.
u use media center, not file manager.
when it plays, u use menu button of remote to change chapters, playlist, subs, audio tracks, etc.
next/previous video, rewind/forward works too.
however, there is no full menu like playing with DVD player.
himedia has put in good work to do full menus for BDMV but has dropped that for DVDs.

use of kodi is not as good.
it does not read the video_ts folder; u need to go inside to select/play the individual VOB track.
the same happens when u use mx/mx pro player.

kodi player is not optimal with q10pro.
local playback or online streams, the best audio u can get is DD (AC3) and DD+ (EAC3).
dts and others can be transcoded to DD only.
to do that, u go to system and turn on all 4 options under audio passthru.

Actually I'm on 2.06 firmware.. Can I download 2.1.1 from futeko? I was worried if the newer firmware not stable.. somehow my OTA stated I'm on the latest firmware.. clearly its not giving the latest firmware. Looks like gotta flash it.

Edit: I followed your advice, upgraded to 2.1.1 and yes media player now reads the video_ts (of coz without menu) but it works!

Blu-ray menu still not available for himedia yet is it?

if yr box was purchased outside china or classified as "international version", u can use futeko firmwares.

full menus for 1080p/2160p bdmv m2ts and bdmv iso works good.

this, u dun get with most boxes.

Thanks again!

Hi all, i'm using Himedia Q1, i tried to access shared folder in my pc from Himedia but failed.

Can anyone share step by step on how to access shared folder in my pc from himedia?

Q1... never knew such a model existed.

how old is it... and pls post picture.

ok... i think Q1 wasn't a popular model, not many sold here.
from below page, last firmware was in 2016.
http://www.himediatech.my/support/
meaning it was probably a 2013/2014 model, i.e. 5-6 years old... much like q16 which was more popular here.

i wouldn't know the specifics to this model but based on q16 and others that i know:

.. first, u go to pc and set the required permissions for external access - steps depend on the window version; try right click on the right drive.
windows firewalls does not allow permission easily and not for all drives; usually allow "users" or download drives only.

.. the box, there is a "media" option at the UI. here, u go to LAN to use SMB (samba or file sharing).
u key in the IP address and other info of the PC (the client) drive while the box serves as server.
the way the info is keyed in varies a bit from model to model, so i can't be sure.

where to check which version ?
mine latest is 2.0.4

this, u either refer to yr seller or read/ask futeko:
https://www.futeko.com/newforum/index.php?topic=711.0

however, if u bought from local seller and not imported from china, chances are it is int'l version.
if that is the case, since u r on 2.0.4 (android7), u can go straight to latest 2.1.1.

still, u gotta confirm yrself.

himedia new model?

looks like a long way still...

from futeko:

Just got my Q10 pro, I would like to know what is the best way to link my PC to the box over ethernet?

I have enabled SAMBA on the box but couldn't find a way to access the HDD on the box.

Google for enabling SMB 1.0/CIFS on Windows 10

samba is useful to access files on yr pc to playback.
u get into the media center. LAN (smb) option, key in all reqd info, with windows permission given.

u can also upload/download files between the 2 with other apps like asus file manager.
however, the data transfer rate is low, can't do big files.
for that, best is to put q10pro close to pc, connect with usb cable typeA (pc)<->typeB (back of q10pro), typically used for printers.
then u can move files much much faster.

Solution was. found after turning off Bluetooth phone link n Gmail.
So far no more irritating xylophone sounds!
