Wolly, what can I do to help you get more information about my potential handshake issue.

let me know

After talking about this with our developers, they said some AVRs and 3D TVs don't recognize VidOn Box, so you will get no sound/3D.
And Caramba69 also proved this. After he connected the EDID Emulator between VidOn Box and TV, 3D works.
Now we are discussing this problem.
Do you think you can solve this with an software update?
I'm not sure, maybe we can do something in the software to let all AVRs and 3D TVs recognize the box.

Don't know if other A31s powered boxes also have this problem.

Isn't this most likely to be EDID
Update:
Connected to my Onkyo 737 Receiver and with the HDFury adapter the box plays 3D and bitstreaming DTS-HD fine. The only issue I found is that movies with Dolby Digital 5.1 are played with a loud noise overlaying the sound.
Wolly , your site says :

For those of you who have already purchased a VidOn Box before November 5th, 2014, we will be extending your VidOn Membership by one year! We will also be offering our customers the chance to replace their old VidOn Box remotes with our newer model. We will release more details regarding the membership extension, remote replacement, and how to apply very soon, so stay tuned!

How come my license expires on february? , the box i have is from your 1st batch
checking your site , i saw non suscribers will loose hdmi/spdif passthru , since this feature is not fully working ( in my case only spdif work , hdmi only works with dolby digital /truehd and not dts dts-hd ) and since your bd player is not yet working as published ) will we get the license extended Huh?
Mine showed the same thing, but after I did the last software update and logged back in, it showed a year. Or, you could ask in their forum here.

I hate subscriptions, so I hope VidOn will provide a one-time lifetime unlock for those of us who want it. That plus HD audio and 3D both being included w/o premium sub as originally indicated.

Test Transformer Age of Extinction 3D Dolby ATMOS yesterday

The VidOn Box decode the Dolby TrueHD container inside the ATMOS(So does my ChromeBox w/OpenElec

Does anyone has an ATMOS receiver to test if the VidON box can decode it?

Caramba69 has an Onkyo TX-NR737, which is Dolby Atmos enabled with the latest firmware update.
I got no VidOn Box, else i would be able to test with my TX-NR636 Smile

I have a TX-NR636, but no ATMOS speakers set-up. Still possible to test?

Yes!

If you have Transformers Age of Extinction and The Expendables 3 both this 2 movies contain Dolby ATMOS format.

Can anyone confirm that the stuttering & buffering issues has been well addressed in this release? I still experience these in big 2D mkv files (~20Gb) over wireless SMB
I don't have buffering issues over wired lan and smb.
I attempted to post an answer a few hours ago, but it is not up at this point, so I apologise if the original turns up at some point as well.

No buffering over wired LAN with smb or NFS with Bluray Isos even (40-50GB files). Your problem may be wifi - we used to have some intermittent problems using a HTPC over wifi to our server which was less than 5m away (and only through a thin, slatted door), which is why we changed to wired.
