Amlogic-NO discussion

Looks like is maybe only SC2 again with issues

Tested on S5 X96X10 PRO S928X-J
No issues
Also VC-1 all good

Tested on SC2 Hk1x4 S905X4
Black Screen
No VC-1

Go to Settings/Player/Allow Hardware acceleration- amcodec

Disable this/turn off with slider

Your test file will playback

Still no sample…
Still no help…

Thank you for the sample, but it just play fine here without any issue till the end.
Tested on SC2 Homatics.

the sound is good and keeps going but the picture freezes.

Your issue will be related to:

Your Android video firmware is below 4.1.
So you need to update Android and hope it firmware and bootloader is updated as well.

We can not use newest firmware to support all media when the the bootloader does not support it.

To eliminate anything funky in my system, I re-did a fresh install on a uSD card but did not restore any setting. Just tried to play the file directly from USB drive. Same result with black screen and just sound. Is there any other diagnostic information I can provide, other than providing the actual hardware device. Should I maybe just bite the bullet and get another player?

Sorry I posted just as you were posting - so upgrade firmware is best bet then

This link popped up when I issued the command

I also rebooted back into the Android system and the information there says the firmware is Jan 2023, Android 11 (but this can be deceptive) and kernel is 5.4.125

Android ucode version: '3.17'
To old Android. Update to minimum 4.1 to get full media support!

Still same problem here with latest nightly 20250321.

It looks like you are right: paste.coreelec.org/FramedSpending Android ucode version: ‘3.33’ here.

I will try Android update in few days. Just need to read docu and flash: Tanix TX4 Firmware – Disk Google

I will add a notification if Android must be updated.

A sample is a sample to be able to play local here.
A sample what does NOT work on your side with local playback.

And this info?
I am not going to reply to you anymore when it all require to request everything multiple times…

All samples play fine.
You need to fix your device locally!

0318, 0320 Ethernet and wifi is high as I can get 300+
0321 I cannot get over 99mbits. Tried 3 sd cards.
What log can I get without having to join wires inside Tox3 905x4

In build 20250321 nothing network related things has been changed. Which can I assume it is somethimgh on your end. Like bad cable if you have 100mbits speed even over ethernet.

Here I updated TOX3 to the latest possible version from the end of 2024, it came out of “3.25” for Android ucode version: ‘3.49’.

Just updating the topic. I saw that there were some corrections.

Maybe someone with latest slimbox in devices like Ugoos X4 or some other can check the ucode version. it’s a longshot but it’s worth a try.
