Kikat - Wasser Firmware for Beelink R89

[Luxilon]

With regards to the sound dropping out issue, I discovered something.

When using 2.08 I found that I was getting frequent dropouts, where before it was a very rare thing.

Then I remembered that I had moved furniture around and had plugged a different HDMI cable in to the box/TV afterwards.

I changed the cable back again and since then I have had no dropouts at all.

Yeah, I wouldn't hold my breath. It will go a couple of days without any drops, and then it will randomly drop-out 5 times over the course of a movie (regardless of what the volume is set at). It is extremely annoying, especially since it always seems to happen at the most important part of the movie (climax).

The last bit made me giggle, dirty mind, sorry :P

I wondered that, so I replaced the HDMI cable with the one that I was using when having constant dropouts and they appeared on a continual basis again.

Gone back to the setup that shows none so far and after 8 hours of use, no dropouts at all.

Hello Bluesmanuk,

Do You have a link to where you bought your good cable ??

Is it a HDMI 2.0 cable ??

It was bought from a local store and was a High Speed Cable with ethernet.

I would not suggest that anybody go out any buy new cables as I know of no specific logic why this has worked.

Ok the Wasser Firmware is not working on the Tronsmart Orion R28 Meta, it have the same Bug like this:

"green/purple-ish display issues with some TV"
OpenHour fix this in there firmware. Is it possible to fix this in your Wasser Firmware??? wasser

I have this issue with my philips tv too. Only stock firmware runs but not as clean as wassers firmware. I think it's hdmi handshake problem?

Can someone help me to get rid of audio dropouts when playing a movie? I use Wasser v2.0.8 with HDMI Passthrough. The dropouts happens with all apps(Youtube, SPMC, Spotify, etc.) How often it happen is very random, sometimes it is every 20-30s and sometimes I can watch a full movie without getting a dropout. Is this occurring for others too? Is it better to use SPDIF than HDMI Passthrough?

It is the same thing (regarding SPDIF and HDMI passthrough).
The only way to get rid of them is to set your HDMI to 24fps and in SPMC disable passthrough.

Hey guys, I just updated to version 2.0.8 rom and cpu2000-ddr700-gpu600 kernel. Now I don't have audio through HDMI?!...

I go to Settings>Sound>Sound Device Manager & it doesn't have an option to select HDMI Passthrough. Only SPDIF Passthrough.

Any idea's gentleman? Much appreciated!

Unfortunately this has been a nagging problem for the Wasser roms. I can't speak for Wasser but I don't think there's any easy fix.

I had the same, put it down to the kernel being too old for the new firmware.

Use overclockmatic in terminal emulator and keep the current included kernel. Don't expect to see too much improvement as I believe the GPU and DDR are already clocked very high.

Please don't use this on firmware 2.0.8. It's not compatible!
