scooter2014 UnHuh! Where are the cones?

Other than the reboots when using Eth to stream via Kodi(Trebor does not have them), this box is inline with my expectations.

Just checked WirelessUpdate app, an update dated 2016-06-15 popped up, getting ready to apply it now.
Changes show...
1.) updated Kodi add-ons. Don't care, I don't use the installed Kodi.
2.) fix remote bug. I am unfamiliar with this bug.

I want unified storage and my Eth when streaming via Kodi resolved(if possible).

Parameter file can be modded to makecthat possible. I am dieing to play with this device now. Lol

[RISCy Dude]

Don't you have to have an update image to use that method?

This is by far, the worst box I have purchased in a while. It is in need of serious work on the firmware. Even your ZDMC won't passthrough Dolby, much less HD audio. I will play with it for another day or two, then maybe spill coffee on it.

[scooter2014]

No. Should be able to make that file and put into firmware .

Install the update (someone try spmc as well 😁

I am a bit confused, I get perfect DD, DD+, DTS and True HD. Have you updated yet?

[clarkss12]

My box still says no update available. Perhaps we don't have the same box.

[clarkss12]

I I have tried several different version of Kodi, none of them will even play if passthrough is selected.

[RISCy Dude]

When this OTA DLs, I will upload somewhere and you can apply it manually.

[RISCy Dude]

scooter2014 Yes, I have tried SPMC, results were negative.
I see no parameter file in the OTA., would this need to be added. I am familiar with RK stuff, but this box looks a bit different. For instance, what is trust.img?

[RISCy Dude]

The OTA is DLing at the speed of silence.
402MB of 614MB so far.

clarkss12 To confirm our boxes ARE the same, does your build.prop look like this? FT would not let me attach build.prop, so I added".zip" to it, just rename it to build.prop and open with wordpad or other text editor.

[RISCy Dude]

Here is the latest OTA.
If yo have trouble using the WirelessUpdate app, rename OTA.zip to update.zip and copy to card or flash drive. Reboot box and it will tell you it found an update, and ask you if you want to apply it. Click yes. It should spend a second checking the file and then reboot to the little green droid with the spinning gear.
Hope it improves your experience clarkss12.
