Himedia Q10 Next Generation - new box for HD Audio and 3D+BD - MiniPCDB - 2015-12-31

In just a few days Himedia will announce their new Himedia Q10 Next Generation TV box at CES 2016
This one will use the newest Hisilicon SoC which will offer the same goodies as the previous version (after all, it got an "A" from our very own @hdmkv user here) - but will also promise some new features :
- H.265/HEVC 10 bit
- HDMI 2.0 (so 4k@60fps)
- Dolby Vision VS10 & HDR/WCG support

The Kodi logo on the specs sheet is very promising Smile

let's refrain from referring to anything as "best choice" until it's actually been released and tested. The internet is littered with boxes that sounded great when announced yet ultimately failed to deliver

Curious how much this box will go for. Been watching the Q5 for a while and never seen it dip under $129.99 much..

I wonder what DOBLY ATOMS is - surround sound for dyslexic people?


RE: Himedia Q10 Next Generation - new box for HD Audio and 3D+BD - hdmkv - 2015-12-31

New generation audio format ... Dolby at the atom level; feel it in your DNA Wink.

HiMedia seems to love its Q#-branding. Wish they'd come up with a new naming scheme. If they don't, this would be the fifth generation Q10 I think... talk about confusing customers.


RE: Himedia Q10 Next Generation - new box for HD Audio and 3D+BD - Soulbind - 2015-12-31

Dolby ATOMS is a new surround format developed by our talented engineers, led by mr Jen-Yong-Fung, who used google translate for putting that spec sheet together Big Grin


RE: Himedia Q10 Next Generation - new box for HD Audio and 3D+BD - movie78 - 2015-12-31

Guys i don't think Himedia is the solution,as far as they using Kodi with a wrapper..


RE: Himedia Q10 Next Generation - new box for HD Audio and 3D+BD - hdmkv - 2015-12-31

Agree, best is to have a Kodi integrated solution, but if proper 3D & HD audio can't be done w/o a wrapper, then next best solution to no Kodi.
