1. No picture on best quality stream (11.55 Mbit/s h265) no matter which audio is preselected. Limiting bandwidth to 11.0 Mbit/s in the addon, stream plays with 10.2 Mbit/s h265 and everything works OK. I have to choose DD+ to avoid subtitle flicker. Looks exactly the same as on Kodi 20a Nexus. So, Firestick 4K is probably not powerful enough for best stream.
2. The movie is displayed in proper aspect ratio 2.35:1. So wrong aspect ratio (1.77:1) displayed in Nexus is probably due to alpha Kodi version...
One more thing, on both Kodi versions if I choose AC3 (best audio option) audio stream is not recognised/properly displayed in "Player process info" overlay and I get subtitle flicker. Probably also due to underpowered Firestick 4k...
I also have a problem with AC3 audio on my Google Chromecast with Google TV. Playback jams and the sound drops out. when I switch to DD + so everything is fine. Bandwith have limited only to 7 Mbit, if I set more, the video will play but not show ... I'm a little surprised because I thought that my device can play 4K videos and 150Mbit internet connection should be sufficient, but here I have a problem with HD.
