Thanks Mirror, @spring i will check the CEC this evening. and the issue with TrueHD and ATMOS (audio dropouts)
Thanks for the update. Looked at the improvement list and wanted to know where 3D MKV lack of depth and HDMI CEC issues are on the list of things to address. I know the 3D MKV issue was a longer term issue to address in the future. I also know that there have been efforts to address HDMI CEC issues that have not fully solved the problem. I have both a X8 and a X9s and both have HDMI CEC issues. I have to keep the X9s on a CEC less adapter because of the problems that it causes. I tested each version of the firmware (excluding those put out in the last 24 hours) by removing the CEC less adapter and end up having to put it back on once I discover it still has issues. Even turning off HDMI CEC on the X8/X9s doesn't help. I got to use the CEC less adapter. What are the CEC problems? They have been reported on the X9s forums. The X9s is connected as follows: X9s --> Marantz NR 1606 --> Samsung UN55JS8500 Samsung UBD-K8500--> Marantz NR 1606 --> Samsung UN55JS8500 --OR-- X9s --> Sony STR-DN1070 --> Samsung UN55JS8500 Samsung UBD-K8500--> Sony STR-DN1070 --> Samsung UN55JS8500 Why do I mention the UBD-K8500? Because the X9s causes all CEC devices that normally play nice with each other to no longer do so. I tried both the Marantz and Sony AVRs to see if it was just an issue with a particular receiver and the X9s. It wasn't. The issues include: 1) Turning on when it isn't set to do so. 2) Causing CEC control to fail with other connected devices. 3) Causing connected devices to become non-responsive or respond when they shouldn't. 4) Turning off the X9s HDMI CEC alone doesn't fix the issue. 5) Significant delays between start up of the X9s and when CEC actually does occur. It sometimes it even requires unplugging the receiver and/or TV before adding the CEC less adapter back to the X9s and plugging it back in. When the X9s is out of the chain or the in the chain with the adapter, everything else in the chain is happy. Now lets take a look at the X8. I tried the following: X8 --> Sony HT-Xt1 --> Samsung UN46JES7100 Samsung BD-E5900--> Sony HT-Xt1 --> Samsung UN46JES7100 --OR-- X8 --> Sony HT-Xt1 --> Samsung UN46F8000 Samsung BD-E5900--> Sony HT-Xt1 --> Samsung UN46F8000 1) Turning on when it isn't set to do so. 2) Turning off the X8 HDMI CEC alone doesn't fix the issue. 3) Significant delays between start up of the X8 and when CEC actually does occur. Again, these devices played well together before the introduction of the X8. I speculate if I were to swap the X8 where the X9s is installed, the issues would be identical to the X9s. I've seen this type of issue before with a Channel Master DVR (it doesn't support HDMI CEC) causing the same havoc. The problem went away only when I installed a CEC less adapter on it. Later, Channel Master fixed the issue with a firmware but never should've had an issue since their device doesn't even support HDMI CEC. Any insight on what you guys at Zidoo know would be greatly appreciated. I know HDMI CEC is sketchy on a lot of Android boxes but I did have one that worked perfectly. It was replaced by the X8.
