Yes I have noticed that because I have owner of nexbox a95x this is only in libreelec 8.0 build only because of amlogic decoder bug...if u use spmc and enable amcodec acceleration in spmc.u will.also notice that this video masking.
.
Cheers, thanks. I thought I was going mad. Software deciding seems to play fine so will leave it like that for now.
Hello community
Im running a nextbox A95X and have a video quality question.
I have noticed a very slight quality drop on the same video when comparing playback between my laptop and media player(eliminating the file). The best way to explain the quality issue is a "masking" over semi static scenes. The effect looks like too much "photoshop smoothing" has been applied to peoples faces.
Its very subtle so you dont see it all the time, however disabling hardware acceleration seems to improve it.
Anyone with similar issues?
Cheers

Feedback on latest build thus far is solid.
Did a clean install to internal memory.
Memory usage is low
No issues playing any files
Sometimes the UI hangs, mostly after playback of a video
Otherwise performance is stellar. Great stuff!

Hi
Sorry if this has been posted before, it seem so simple but i cannot get it right.
I have installed audo on a Amlogic build running Jarvis. SABnzdb needs unrar and par2 to decompress files, but the binary cannot be found. I have tried to see how to do this via SSH but it seems i need to use a plugin via Kodi as this is how packages are managed. However i cannot find an unrar addon anywhere?
Please help
Cheers
markrudling This looks like an issue with EDID negotiation. While I cannot offer you a fix, I can give you a workaround:
- Connect your box to a port where you're getting that rich disp_cap list.
- Enter these commands over SSH:
Codeecho mount -o bind /storage/.config/disp_cap /sys/class/amhdmitx/amhdmitx0/disp_cap >> /storage/.config/autostart.sh cat /sys/class/amhdmitx/amhdmitx0/disp_cap >> /storage/.config/disp_cap
You should now have a simulated fake EDID.

New development build to test:
LibreELEC-S905.aarch64-7.0-devel-20161202213923-r23473-g8a53869.img.gzChanges from previous dev build:
- AP6212 firmware reverted as issues were reported with updated one
- a/v sync and demux buffering patch modified (once again)
- maybe something else I don't remember now
I think this might become .010 build if no big issues are found.
Thanks! Those instructions worked perfectly. 4k 24/7 now.
I fear I may have missed a post earlier regarding plugins. Im trying to install audo but get an error relating to missing dependencies. Two questions around this.
1. What are the known issues around plugins that that I could use to address my issue.
2. Do you have stable versions with an older version of Kodi where addons all work (dependencies met)?
Testing your new dev build now. Will feedback.
PS. More than willing to run tests and provide feedback where I can.
Cheers

markrudling What is the result is you execute cat /sys/class/amhdmitx/amhdmitx0/disp_cap over SSH?
480p60hz*
720p60hz
1080p60hz
EDIT: Ok so a bit more experimenting gives me the following results.
Plug into HDMI3 and reboot box. 4k
Plug into HDMI1 4k remains. Reboot box and resets back to 720, with 1080 as other option
Plug into HDMI3 still no 4k option. Reboot box while still in HDMI3 and I get 4k again and refresh rate adjusts per video.
I will do some more research into my tv and if there are differences with the inputs. I know HDMI3 does not have seem to support HDR, perhaps there is something in the auto detect/initialization there? I know HDMI1 supports 4k, but after reboot it defaults, so it must be in the initialization.
Thanks for trying to help, will be very glad if we can resolve this.

Hi there
First off - Thanks! I have the nextbox A95X running the S905X chip. I was initially very disappointed with it until I discovered this wonderful build. Goodby android!
Second - Its my first post here so please forgive me if I have not done due diligence, have searched this quite a bit though.
My problem: I have a Samsung 55' UHD tv but I cannot select 4k resolution. I only have 720 and 1080 as options. During boot the resolution is 4k, but as soon as the UI loads it drops to 1080. My setting to adjust resoloution depending on video file is enabled but no change happens when I play sample 4k video.
Im quite happy having the UI in 1080 when not playing, but got the box for 4k so would like to get this working.
PS. I have tired a number of ports and cables. I know 4k is a little more sensitive in that regard but am pretty sure its not a hardware issue because the box is in 4k according to my TV during boot logo.
Cheers
Mark
