Android 2.3 & 4.0 WiFi Internet HD 1080P HDMI Google TV Box ARM Cortex A9 Firmware

dear stane1983
id like to inform that there is a little glitching on the screen on 3 to 4 second base when playing 720p mkv format on the media player << and is there any way to center the subtitle cause it is on the right side off screen (60 inch led) >> Firmware - rev 2 platform (f16ref) ,,
thnx

That's odd... Those subtitles, are they packed into mkv or pure subtitles? If pure subtitle file, can you upload it somewhere and post name of mkv for me to be able to download it?

Your sub has been blocked.... rename it and zip it then upload :)

Btw, isn't the case that arabic do have right alignment instead of left one like latin?

How it works on stock rom? Aaaa, right, it doesn't work :D Sorry Visson guys, I had to :) I offered them subtitle solution couple of times but it seems they are not interested :)

Ok, it's official.... Amlogic is killing me. That problem with fonts on right side of screen is not font problem but 1080 resolution problem (means on 720p works as it should)... When on 1080, UI (controls) and subtitles having wrong width and height and that's reason why subtitles nor UI controls are not centered.

Hang on, will solve this issue...

I owe you some news. They arebgood as I finally managed to get back to life my box, thanks to the instructions (very simple) you gave me. After the SD recovery, I dragged into it the 7 files of the last version of firmware f16ref + famous file from the C03ref.
Very simple and efficient.
Many thanks.

Glad I could help :)

My Box arrived today (after 4 Weeks waiting...).
The DeviceChecker says Visson f16ref.

Diffrent to the box in the FAQ the device has 3.2Gb internal Memory (advertised as 4Gb) and a 3,5mm-jack for rgb (instead of jacks for each).

Stane is it possible to add german language to one of your new firmwares? Thx!

If you intend to use Stane's fw, please note that (as for now) remote control will no longer work, at all. HDMI works on 720P (not 1080P) and you will have netflix and flash problems. The YUV cable works for image but the audio slot doesnt seem to be working for me. I cannot get any audio unless im using HDMI. This fw is for testing, EXPECIALLY on a device like ours. Still, it runs MUCH smoother than original fw. You can find a cable on DX without any trouble.

@grindinonyourm no problems with WIFI AT ALL... low signal, but expected and no drops so far.

@stane1983 plz don't forget to remove the remote control conf from the kernel on next update.

Thank you, CoyoteX.

Same here, boxes do have 3.2 Gb indeed. About German, it's already in there :)

UPDATE: Amlogic stuff is not translated, if you like to translate it to german, pm me, I will send link to translation pack with instructions how to do translation... When (if) you do it, it will be included in next fw...

I'm pretty sure they do have 4gb in them. It's just the system doesn't report the install partition and the cache partition or secured storage i think as storage..if you add those back onto the 3.2gb, you start getting closer to the 4gb advertised. I already learned about this from the artway factory in Shenzhen.
