I have some questions regarding the slimbox tv: 1) does it support dolby vision profile 7 2) lossless audio Dolby Truhd , Dts-x , Dts-hd ma, Dolby atmos, truhd atmos 3) Cec hdmi 4) AFR 5) Dolby Vision, Hdr, Hdr10plus (Hdr10+)
@clarkss127 күн бұрын
Been awhile since I use the TOX3, but it is fantastic, especially running the Slimbox OS. It does NOT support any form of Dolby Vision. It does support HDR 10 and HDR 10+ and all of the HD audio codecs. I don't use CeC, and not sure about AFR, been too long since I used it. For local media playback, CoreELEC is the way to go. As I recall, I installed the CoreELEC OS to the internal NAND, so no dual boot. But is is a fantastic media player for the price.

It plays "Back to the Future" without any issues. Here is the info for that video, it is using Profile 7 FEL, and it plays well without a conversion to profile 8. I am not getting into the conversation about "fake TV-led" profile 7. Dolby Vision, Version 1.0, dvhe.07.06, BL+EL+RPU, Blu-ray compatible / SMPTE ST 2094 App 4, Version 1, HDR10+ Profile B compatible If you notice, it has HDR10+ as the fallback codec. My Vizio TV supports both Dolby Vision and HDR10+, so if one of my boxes does not support DV, it falls back to the HDR10+.

I used to love the early Dune products before they went on to team up with Zappiti for the metadata scraping. When Zappiti decided to release their own players it looked like the end for Dune. Ironic that Zappiti is out of favour now and Dune are back with a bang. Can’t wait to experience that familiar looking layout again. I think I’ll be relegating the Zidoo players I currently use. Thanks for the review.
