Never again!
Quite happy with the VTEN, at last a device that plays the media the way I want it...
Just select the 3D movie and play…. with correct framerate, 3D subs and no shutter from SMB share.
True I miss the KODI interface and probably will sell the VTEN if an alternative with KODI arrives.

Yeah I did get a Q5 and returned it. No 3D subs. So definitely not a solution for me.
So I wonder did you try subs on the VTEN while playing an 3D ISO to compare?
I also did not like the external player solution, it would mess up any CinemaVision addon script.
RE: Media Player Choices with Kodi + Full 3D + HD Audio - MaDeMaNN - 2016-01-19
Where is the best place to pick up a Q5? That ships fairly quickly to USA?
RE: Media Player Choices with Kodi + Full 3D + HD Audio - hdmkv - 2016-01-19
None that ship from within the U.S. unfortunately. You'll need to order off eBay with shipping from China, but first, verify it's the English-branded version, not the Chinese version (different firmwares; can't crossflash).
I had two at one point (sold one)... one from nikingstore.com, and the other from Futeko in UK. Latter guarantees the English version, but you get a UK plug, so figure another $7-10 to get a compatible U.S. plug off eBay.
RE: Media Player Choices with Kodi + Full 3D + HD Audio - MaDeMaNN - 2016-01-19
Awesome thanks!

So Minions 7.1 3D.ISO had a playback issue,this prove that Raspberry Pi2 is having some playback issues with 3D.ISO TRUEHD Tracks,but John Wick 7.1 did play fine.

. Tested w/Milhouse Kodi 17 build #118. Only thing is occasional skipped frames, especially in the first 10-15 minutes of a BD rip. Can you guys try & bring up the codec info overlay (press letter 'O' on a connected keyboard) every couple mins to check? Thanks!
RE: Media Player Choices with Kodi + Full 3D + HD Audio - movie78 - 2016-01-19
Was your test performed on a FULL Rip ISO?
RE: Media Player Choices with Kodi + Full 3D + HD Audio - hdmkv - 2016-01-20
No... all my rips are movie-only. I use AnyDVDHD in conjunction w/tsMuxeR to rip/build movie-only ISO's for all my 3D discs.
RE: Media Player Choices with Kodi + Full 3D + HD Audio - movie78 - 2016-01-20
Most of my ATMOS Movie are Full Rip, I will test the latest Milhouse Kodi 17 build to see if there is any improvement.
Thanks for taking time to to test this.

Hi..have been browsing this fantastic thread for a while and eventually decided to purchase a Pi2..have it all setup per first page(thanks!) with a recent millhouse build.Hd audio is working well as lpcm via my amp and 3d is fantastic.However..does the pi2 offer a bdlite menu(i appreciate it cant do a full bdj menu).If so..which build or is it only on a few select bd.isos??

No BDLite or BDJ Menu on the Pi2 as for now,maybe in the future
RE: Media Player Choices with Kodi + Full 3D + HD Audio - hdmkv - 2016-01-20
BD-lite menu is basically access to chapters, subs & audio options... so yes, via Kodi, just press 'OK' button if you have a WMC remote/dongle or 'Enter' key if a keyboard, and you should be able to access all those. Not certain about chapters as RPi2 didn't support it w/ISO's with earlier build, but maybe it has been added now.
RE: Media Player Choices with Kodi + Full 3D + HD Audio - macca777 - 2016-01-20
Ok thanks again.Saw the chart on first page mentioning a bd-lite menu with the Pi2 and thought i was missing some functionality.
The zidoo x6 i purchased and that hasnt made it out of its box yet pales in comparison deapite its lofty and legally dubious claims..its own forum is a bit of a train wreck.
