I've tested with all the usual suspects - Saving Private Ryan at 2.30,Power Rangers, Total Recall etc and the FEL is definitely being processed. What you need to do to make the mkv work reliably is first use MakeMKV from the original Blu-Ray file structure (i.e. not a previously made 2 track DV mkv for example) and then re-mux with MKVtoolnix. This gives me good results. It would be nice to have it ironed out so there isn't pauses for a bit after seeking (only happens sometimes) - but I've watched lots of FEL movies on it now and am more than happy. As a bonus the PQ is a notch up from the Oppo - things like the chroma upsampling are much better on the AMlogic.I think you've mentioned before that you have both the AM6+ as well as the U22-XJ. If it wouldn't be too much trouble for you, would you be able to test the exact same FEL mkv on both devices, and see if FEL playback of that file is reliable on both or only on the U22-XJ? That way, we can narrow down if it's your method of preparing the remux, or if the U22-XJ with AM6+ firmware is actually superior than the AM6+ with the same firmware (which seems odd given that they have the same chipset). If you are able to confirm, it would help inform if I need to buy a U22-XJ for reliable FEL playback.
Thanks matt.
