As Windows seems to be no good, my old custom build is not going to get a second life. As 4K HDR is the most important part, I've come down to ODROID N2 or the Vero4k+, but I have a few questions maybe some of you could answer?Currently MaxFALL/MaxCLL are not passed through. Not all films use this data and HDR has been well received on the Vero
- The Vero4k+, as far as I can understand, have issues with passing HDR infoframe metadata (MaxCLL/FALL?) properly? Not sure if is still an issue, or even more importantly, will it have any practical consequences? Is it a dealbreaker at this point?
- Considering the low power CPU on the Vero4k+, how is a skin like Aeon MQ8 working? It's the only skin I really like, and have come to wonder if it will be a laggy experience?
To be honest, I like the looks and simplicity of the Vero, but at the same time I'd like the best possible PQ and HDR experience.. well, can't decide Any thoughts and the two options?
Support for passing through that metadata will be ready by the end of August.
