My question is are these fakes is there just s802 and these companies just faking it can do dolby and dts pass through. or have they found a way to do it via rom decode tks
now there is no device which use s802dd. and only tronsmart and minix said they will release version with s802dd.

there should be world wide sanction like paypal where if the seller post false credentials of the unit they would be stripped of the money. China would be great raw model of they had customer service as in sending right items and goods also if they were fault doa etc this what is killing them customer service and trying to retain and gain more clients Chinese my self but they are hard people to deal with especially if they are going to loose moneyBugs are Sons of Glitches!

Originally posted by rlaursen View Postenabled ffmpeg but which option is for audio in verbose? I got cartoon hd and istream installed on gotham which used to say incompatible.. not sure if its cause I installed and then removed frodo first like other user suggested. Here is the log where you can see the amlogic decoder failing.

seems the problem is ERROR: DVDVideoCodecAmlogic: Failed to open Amlogic Codec
something in this firmware is blocking it but that makes no sense since the release from 2 days earlier worked fine.

S802 and S802-H differences
I just want to step in here really quick.
Seems that there is still some confusion with the whole Dolby and DTS decoding thing pass through thing.
The S802 chip does not have hardware decoding. It requires the software to do it's part. As for pass through this is not an issue and is actually being thought of completely wrong which I will cover in the last part.
The S802-H(S802DD) does hardware decoding. This does not require the software to do anything with the audio tracks. It does however require that the software know how to pass off the decoding to the hardware. These chips are not yet on the market. I want to also point out that hardware decoding is not a special magical thing. For these chips the "hardware" decoding will simply be a small portion of the CPU to use the built in decoder firmware to perform the actual decoding. Less CPU overhead and all that comes with it. However there will be restrictions on this and if your AC3 and DTS soundtracks are not within the codec restrictions it will not be hardware decoded.
Now for the pass through dilemma.
Both chips do pass through. The only differences here are the current market chip, S802, cannot do hardware decoding so the software must step up to the plate.
So when you ask about pass through and decoding please remember that they are two totally different things and are independent of each other.
On a side note Netflix requires Android 4.3 and above for HD due to it's built in DRM. I am not sure that these ROMS have the required DRM files as it has to be done with a Google signature thing. Considering that they have issues with the play store it wouldn't surprise me that they goofed that up as well or simply left it out. Aslo for Netflix HD to work you must have a consistent 1.75m inbound bandwidth signal. If you have that then you should be ok to get HD if the rom has the right DRM parts.
