R89-Hardware/Thermal/case issue feedback here

[oman]

HI, To those who have any kinds of AV receiver :

Let's make it easy,and help me to figure out the last one key issue,many thanks!

1.I want to exclude factors of different version FW or some mistake of update process before,so update the latest test FW:

Here is to download:update_R89_109k4108_test

Here is some instructions about how to update:

http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.php?16490-Beelink-R89-UBOX-ROM-Tools-release

2.Log in Google Play and search Syslog and install it.

3.Set up your test scenario:
Just test only one AC3 video,the one I uploaded before.
Download here:hd_other_blue_ray_samsung_sound_demo_DD.m2ts

Playing the video from USB stick/HDD or NAS or SDcard by Video Player(the stock one),not from xbmc or mxplayer or else!!

Select Setting->Sound->Sound Devices Manager to HDMI Bitstream.

4.After that,play the videos.If not sound out,or not 5.1 sound..run Syslog(here may ask root permissions,Grant it).Select the right options,and click 'Take Log'


And then write my email and send it!!

109k4108 test

I installed this new 109k4108 rom by downloading it and changing the name to "update.img" and placing it on my micoSD card. I rebooted my R89 box and after the reboot, it asked me if I wanted to update. It did the update and now it is running this new firmware. Everything that was there prior to the update, is still there.

I copied thehd_other_blue_ray_samsung_sound_demo_DD.m2ts to my external SD card and using the stock video player, I played this file. I did not have any sounds coming from my Harmon Kardon AVR347 receiver. Using the Syslog app, I created the log files and emailed them to Oman.

I also just sent you the log.

Nothing but complete silence again, sorry.

Do you mean that you have sound through your A/V receiver using the HDMI connection?? What brand and model is your receiver?

Ok to be clear, you are NOT feeding your box into your receiver directly. You are connecting your box via HDMI into your TV, and from your TV into you receiver? correct? What does ARC to Philips mean?

Yes you are correct. AudioRerturnChannel HDMI cable from tv to surround system. That way I can control the volume with tv:s remote (CEC).

Also, I have read that most tv's do not output true Dolby to the receiver as an audio passthrough. I have all my devices feeding into my receiver then the receiver feeds the video signal to the tv through HDMI.
