Home Theatre 5 Update / TMDB Fix v4.3.52 (AMLogic S928X models)

Yes, that's right but I noticed that Zidoo needs 4-8" to retrieve the media info the first time it loads, specially from a NAS. Then next time it pop-up immediately.

 

Didn't trip my Windows Defender - although as I say, I was trying to reflash an old X9S from a 2022 file and Windows had a fit about that one - it had never complained about that file before.

 

It makes just as little sense as installing this version, which is useless. I haven't noticed any disadvantages, but I haven't noticed any advantages either.

 

Installed without problem, but nothing to report !!!
Please go! We are waiting for the rest ........

 

You haven't read the buglist either presumably?

 

I guess peaple are hard to please

 

No, actually not. I had 3 problems, online trailer, TMDB and background, all were fixed with previous version. But I still have stuttering...

 

No, absolutely not difficult if a media player does what it is supposed to do. Then nobody will write anything here.

 

v4.3.52 fixes 6 out of 10 issues I and others found in the previous version.

Stuttering is the player, not HT.

 

Same here.

 

I know that, but I think if more developers would work on the stuttering problem, the faster it would be fixed.

 

As far as I've been told, they still haven't replicated it.

 

@Markswift2003 these updates are very much appreciated. I do have a question though. Each time the we install a Home Theater app update, the poster walls have to go through full reloads? Thank you

 

Not sure what you mean?

 

@Markswift2003 I just updated to the latest version of HT5 and when going to the poster wall it takes quite some time for all the posters to fully load. I couldn’t remember if that is normal behavior for each time you power the unit on from off or it is because I just updated to the latest version of the ht app.

I normally power the unit fully off when not in use and I do have a lot of files.

 

I understand now - I'm not sure if my poster images needed refreshing or not after updating to be honest - I've reset HT so many times on so many boxes in the last few days I can't remember!

But assuming they do, you only have to do this once - after all the posters have been populated once, they remain cached and certainly don't need refreshing after a power cycle.

 

Fair enough
But what about gapless playback of multichannel music files. FLAC, M4A.
There is still a ±2 seccond handshake like pause between songs.

 

No idea sorry - I don't tend to get involved with the music player.

 

You don’t have to populate the posters once again after the update.

 

Yep - I just found that out after updating my UHD8000.

However, since the mediaInfo table entries have changed back to where they were in the database, I did a full reset of HT anyway...
