Firestick 4K Max - Major Issues

[Revv23]

The only comparison is that both Roku and AndroidTV can't run 4k HDR. Roku client doesn't let you select player which is why i mentioned that I haven't found a fix. On android TV you can switch to vlc and it works.

unrealistic generalization
firetv cube gen2, firetv cube gen3, nvidia shield, rocktek g2, zidoo z9x pro and even the very generic HK1 Rbox are all android and do 4K HDR fine (i own 1 of all of these)

most of the time it's audio codec or subtitles causing issues

homatics box r 4k plus and firetv stick 4k (2023) probably work too

You just sniped the whole issue.

I forced audio codec to DTS in roku (only option I had). In android TV I enabled bitstream to DTS (only option not checked)

problems are gone for each.

No idea why this works but I'll take it. My files are AAC FWIW

IMO, QSV is significantly better than AMF in terms of quality per bit and flexibility.

Thanks, I'll leave QSV on, I didnt have any reason to have AMF on other than when I got the GPU I was excited.
