If it exposes itself as a USB sound card it might work.

I'm not sure if the hardware does that but their website mentions support for, "USB audio for Windows 10 PC and Apple Mac"

I don't have the device, but you  might get some feedback by asking the manufacturer or seeing if they have a support forum

This is explained on the 4.9 test thread.
Let me know if you can’t find the post and I’ll dig it up tomorrow.
Thanks, added to top of post #1 for anyone not regularly checking that thread on OSMC forum, like me Wink.

Cheers. Will do a new build soon with  3D included in 4.9 again.
18.8 is due soon enough.

Good to hear, but wow on Kodi 18 reaching .8, almost to 19 Matrix.

On a different note, the C-band MPEG4 4:2:2 sample I pointed you to earlier doesn't play on my Shield either, nor on any of my other media players (Zidoo Z9S, Fire TV 4K or ODROID-N2 w/CE). But, at least I get audio on Vero & N2. Only my i5 PC plays it perfectly. Wonder what about it makes set-top media players choke on it; here's the mediainfo for it...

What do you wonder?

That's not a consumer format. Will only work SW decoded, means you need enough ponies.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

Hey guys, I am really interested in the Vero 4k+.

Just some questions:

* is Widevine L1 certification true and is there an ETA?
* does deinterlacing of SD is working with HW acceleration?
* what about other streaming services like Disney+, Prime VOD,...

Thx

There is no Widevine L1 to date.
Deinterlacing of SD content in hardware is working.

If you want copy protected video services Apps support AND you are on a budget get a Amazon FireTV Stick 4K.

If you get a AMLogic S922Z chipset 2nd Gen. Amazon Fire TV Cube - that will have the CPU ponies to easily Software decode and give you high quality YADIFX2 Software deinterlace of mpeg2 480/576i content**
Hint you use Android Kodi's decodefilter.xml (click)

**Tested on an AMLogic S922X chipset ODROID N2 running Android TV Pie

I have not tested 480/576i h264 Interlaced Software decoding & Software deinterlacing yet !

Discussion of the 2019 Fire TV Cube over in this thread please:
https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=347239

Otherwise you are looking at a Nvidia Shield or Apple TV 4K to do everything you want in the one package.

Thanks, makes sense. Will try s/w decode, and if that doesn’t work, re-encode Smile.

Thx for all the the hints.
So i will think about it and will get an FireTV Cube 4k 2019 or an shield. Sadly the Vero 4k+ is lacking the Online services [emoji17]

Sorry for OT, one question regarding shield (non pro, round one): Is 4k hdr, fhd and interlaced sd in kodi possible incl. Online streaming services like Netflix, Prime Video and Disney+.

Thx

Please write how to change the file from the command line !? With which program, please step by step. I bought a 3D console for this, thanks to this review, and it says that 3D works out of the box! I am writing and reading through a translator.
