I posted this in the Xidoo form and thought others here may find useful..
While I am enthusiastic about the X6 I have found the following issues:
Using Kodi as supplied in X6 with the HDHomeRun add-on for cable tv.
1. Using HDMI Bitstreaming sound is unstable in Kodi; sound seems to be out of sync by about 0.500s ahead of video.
2. Also sound has a bit of an echoey characteristic.
Checked PCM sound format and did have some syncing issues although they seemed to correct rather quickly.
Again video is outputted in YCbCr 4:4:4 color format which is not ideal make a somewhat dark picture and should be user adjustable; even Blu-ray players tend to give user adjustments for color format.
A Plus on picture quality, seems very clean
Also playing MKV movies via Emby for Kodi:
Video is very good
Advanced sound formats all seem to work very well this includes:
DTS-HD
TRUE-HD
Dolby ATMOS
Remote controls FF, skip etc tend to be a little iffy but this I think is more Kodi.
My System:
All via HDMI -X6 > Denon AVR-X5200W > Lumagen Radiance XS+ > Benq W1070 projector
Thanks
