Homatics Box R 4K Plus

I understand

However no Samsung TV supports DV, few projectors support DV, and libplacebo is evolving to solve It.

Anyway thanks for your answer.

When you want to have DV why you buy hardware what does not support it? :thinking:

HdFury can manage tone mapping without issues. Just use a DVLL EDID and enable player led option in CoreELEC. Then you have “fake” DV in 422 Mode.

I didn’t want to open a discussion. I just wanted to make a point about DV decoding to avoid depending on specific licensed HW as much as possible.

By example, many New TV sets don’t support DTS, however, thanks Kodi allows DTS decoding and eArc festures, you can send PCM to those TV sets, and passthrough eArc to AVR if available.

And HDfury, as far as I know, don’t perform any complex tone mapping (LLDV already goes with correct BT2020) , just add HDR10 infoframe so HDR10 display triggers to HDR10 mode to show correct frames.

Still confused about the DV settings that should be used. I’ve tried profile 8 test clips and both player led enabled and disabled the appearance is the same to my eyes. When looking at the player debug display, the output format and color sampling seem to be the same for both as well. Is this just because my TV doesn’t support higher than 4:2:2 for the material? SDR and I think also HDR is output at 12-bit 4:4:4.

I asked this earlier and the answer as far as I can tell is that FEL DV will never work on the Homatics box

How about maximum hdd capacity that CE can support. I just bought new wd my passport 5TB but cant test right now.
Thanks!

You’re good with 5TB.

Need to be self powered, if it’s a hdd, especially external.

Not true. My one works and it’s 2.5" 5TB usb3.

Yeah, 2.5" 5t works ok, 3.5 need a sata box with dc feed.

Looks like I’m behind evolution - too bad I can’t use those for my DIY NAS - only SATA things are OK with Omv TrueNas, FreeNas… Ofc, I use raid configs.

Hi guys!
I have spent too much time to do with ce20 setting to match my daily usage (skin, addon etc…).
Now i want to try ce21 by using another usb stick.
Will i lost all my ce20 setting when i want to come back to ce20 by using ce20 usb?

Make a backup first

Is there a way to get Logitech Harmony Elite to work with this box?

I’m connected with Bluetooth

were you responding to me? If yes what settings did you use on the harmony?

Thanks for that! Any idea how to get the Harmony to work with the box on android? I dual boot the box and would like to just use the harmony to control it across both systems

Can’t help with android

Lastest ce21 nightly, no sound after about 1h30 uptime!
