A new UI update is scheduled to be rolled out this month. Hope it fixes the DTS issue.
Also, does DTS passthrough work with the new 2020 models? or it's broken for those devices as well??

People are worried about the DTS issue but has anybody ever experienced the issue where you get a 1 second audio dropout every couple of hours or so? I suppose most people won't hear it but if you're binging TV shows, you'll hear it a bunch of times. This isn't even unique to Kodi. It happens with other 3rd party players as well. I wonder if the FireTV 4K stick is more suited for Amazon's own players (which I never use) than 3rd party players.

Amazon is not selling you a Kodi experience. It's selling you Prime Video and whatever other services they are pushing, on a subsidized device. They couldn't care less if they break players and apps they don't care about.

When using Kodi with my TV it correctly switches refresh rate including 23.976.
However with the projector only 50, 59 and 60 refresh rates are offered in Kodi menu. It also doesn’t switch to 23.976 when starting playback on the projector.
I guess this is caused by the projector not correctly advertising the supported refresh rates. I know for sure the projector supports 23.976, because with my sat receiver this refresh rate is working. The sat receiver can be configured to select 23.976 and other refresh rates regardless of display EDID.
I wonder if there is still a way to enable 23.976 refresh rate in Kodi?
Any help is much appreciated. Thank you.

Question for those who have owned both a fire stick 4K and a fire cube: is the image quality any better on the cube?
