Dune HD Solo 4K


Version "190919_0242_r11" (the latest stable version)
Changes since 170602_0154_r11:
This version is a small update which includes a few new features,
improvements and fixes.
In particular, this version includes some of the changes previously
implemented in the firmware of newer models (in r13 firmware versions).
NOTE: There were a lot of internal changes, so this version probably
includes some bugs (will be fixed in further versions).

Version "170602_0154_r11"
Changes since 170602_0153_r11:
This firmware is a minor update for the previous firmware version
(170602_0153_r11) with regression fixes and some other small improvements
and fixes.

• Bugfix: SMB server did not work properly in some cases, e.g. access from
  PC to HDD attached to Dune HD box via SMB using simple
  "\player_ip_address" syntax could not work. The bug was introduced in
  the previous firmware version (170602_0153_r11) when implementing SMB
  server vulnerability fix.

• Bugfix: MOVIES and MUSIC RC buttons were not supported in some cases.

• Bugfix: covers in FLAC files could not be shown.

• Bugfix: music playback crash could occur in some cases when playing a CUE
  sheet with multiple ALAC files.

• Bugfix: HTTP/TS playback dune_param lower_cpu_load:1 could cause severe
  distortions with bitrates more than 5 Mbit/s in some cases. This is
  important for plugins which use this dune_param.

• Bugfix: GUI crash could occur in some cases after returning to the screen
  with on-screen-keyboard UI control.

• Bugfix: GUI crash could occur in some rare cases when stopping playback
  immediately after start.

• Bugfix: wrong PIDs were saved for plugins.

• Improvement: added correct support for adding plugin entry point to
  "Favorites" even if plugin has multiple entry points, and even if entry
  point is on the main screen. So it is now possible to easily add for
  example "My Collection" or "Movies" to Favorites (and enable auto start
  for them, if needed).

• Improvement: TTF font setting is now "Regular" by default instead of
  "Light", to make text more readable on Movie screen and similiar screens.
  This change takes effect after settings reset or when installing r11
  firmware over b9 firmware.

• Improvement: removed unneeded delay in reaction to RC buttons press on
  upgrade confirmation screen.

• Improvement: minor fix for animation over the gap between icons on the
  main screen.

• Some other minor improvements/fixes.

Version "170602_0153_r11" (BETA version)
Changes since 170504_1319_r11:
• Solo Lite: Premium Functions (My Collection/Movies/Music and BD Menu) are
  now non-premium, just like on Solo 4K (i.e. available without limitations
  and without the need to have Internet access to check license status).

• New feature: Added support for playback of BD4K images.
   • Only BDLite mode is supported.
   • The player automatically detects BD4K images and automatically starts
     the playback if BDLite mode.

• New feature: Improved support for playback of HDR (HDR10) content.
   • The player automatically recognizes HDR content and automatically
     applies some picture corrections to improve the look of the content on
     TVs without HDR support.
   • If HDR content is recognized, the corresponding status is shown in the
     INFO on-screen-display during playback.
   • Automatic HDR conversion can be enabled/disabled by the new setting
     "Setup / Video / Advanced / BT.202/HDR conversion" (enabled by
     default). When using a TV with HDR support, it is recommended to
     disable HDR conversion on the player and force HDR mode on the TV.
   • HDR conversion can also be quickly toggled during playback using RC
     button "MODE" (on Duo 4K) or "KEYBRD" (on Solo 4K and Solo Lite).

• Improvement: UI animation effects are now disabled by default in video
  modes with low framerate (less than or equal to 30Hz).
   • This is helpful in particular when connecting to a 4K TV and using a
     4K video mode.
   • To force animation effects in all video modes, a new setting "Settings
     / Appearance / Animation Effects / Enabled for all video modes" can be
     used.

• Bugfix: Playback of MP3 files could crash in some cases (this is a
  regression introduced in the previous beta firmware).

• Bugfix: Some DVD images could not be played correctly (playback start
  could fail at some point and DVD menu could not be reached).

• Bugfix: When choosing not to search for community extensions, the
  installation of non-community extensions (e.g. YouTube movie trailers)
  could be skipped in some cases too.

• Bugfix: Video mode setting could be accidentally reset from Auto (EDID)
  to some other value in some rare cases.

• Bugfix: When checking of plugins updates on a clean factory box or after
  settings reset, if Internet connection was not available, a too long
  delay could take place.

• Bugfix: SMB server now includes a fix for the Samba vulnerability
  (CVE-2017-7494).

• Plugins SDK improvements:
   • Improved the handling of cycle_mode_enabled=yes when num_items<3.

• Updated/improved UI translations.

• Some other minor improvements/fixes.

Version "170504_1319_r11" (BETA version)
Changes since 170307_0155_r11:
• New feature: Added support for automatic searching and installation of
  Community Extensions -- applications (plugins) developed by the users
  community and extending the functionality of the player with new
  functions. The set of installed and available extensions can be managed
  via the new menu "Setup / Applications / Extensions" (besides, the
  installed extensions can also be deleted like any other plugins via the
  system menu "Setup / Misc / Plugins").

• New feature: Added support for gapless audio playback: when playing a
  sequence of audio files, the audio files are played in a gapless/seamless
  mode (without pauses between files). Supported for the following audio
  file formats: FLAC, ALAC, SACD, OGG, APE, WAV; partially supported for
  MPEG audio (such as MP3).

• New feature: Duo 4K: Added support for showing text in all languages
  (including all EU languages, Chinese, etc) on Duo4K OLED front panel
  display.

• Improvement: Added support for playback of specific Live HLS streams
  which could not be played before; this in particular fixes the problem
  with some YouTube Live streams.

• Improvement: Better support for DVB subtitles in specific MPEG-TS files;
  fixes the problem with late hiding of subtitles in certain specific
  cases.

• Improvement: GUI dialogs listing audio tracks and subtitles improved in
  order to fit more information into the screen (to reduce chances that a
  long track caption is cut).

• Improvement: Better indication of the position of the current playlist
  item (like 1/6) in the INFO OSD: use the current chapter index and the
  number of chapters when the current playlist item is a chapter, and use
  the current file index and the number of files when the current playlist
  item is a file.

• Improvement: When indexing My Collection, downloaded graphics is resized
  in a slightly more optimized way now (for optimized performance).

• Improvement: Better order of icons for new features (Movies, Music, My
  Collection, Recent) in non-default skins and menu styles.

• Improvement: Kartina.TV application updated according to the latest
  changes on the Kartina.TV server and to include some other improvements
  and fixes.

• Bugfix: FullBD: Specific BD images (with wrong BD structure with some
  components missing) could not be played.

• Bugfix: When playing specific MKV files (with wrong PTS timestamps) with
  AC3 or DTS audio tracks, problems with audio track playback could take
  place in some specific cases.

• Bugfix: When playing an audio file, a small first fragment of the audio
  file could not be heard in some cases (because of HDMI audio parameters
  reconfiguration).

• Bugfix: When playing WavPack audio files, seek did not work properly in
  some cases.

• Bugfix: When playing HSL streams and using pause/resume functions, the
  GUI could stop responding to user commands in some rare cases.

• Bugfix: Playback of HLS streams could fail to start in some cases on
  Internet connections with very big latency.

• Bugfix: When playing specific MPEG-DASH HEVC streams, playback crash
  could occur in some rare cases.

• Bugfix: Some specific HDMI equipment may not work properly in some cases.

• Bugfix: PNG icons in non-RGB format (e.g. 8-bit PNG icons) were not
  loaded properly.

• Bugfix: When viewing photos and very quickly navigating from one photo to
  another, a broken picture could be shown on the screen in some rare
  cases.

• Bugfix: In some specific rare cases, when booting the player after
  power-off, GUI may appear with some small extra delay (and an error could
  be shown on the front panel display of Duo 4K).

• Bugfix: When starting EXT2/EXT3 filesystem check function with background
  playback running, background playback was not stopped.

• Plugins SDK improvements:
   • Added more possibilities for plugins to extend the functionality of
     the Movies catalog (used in My Collection and Movies applications).
     Such plugins can integrate movie trailers and video files from
     external sources.

• Updated/improved UI translations.

• Some other minor improvements/fixes.

Version "170307_0155_r11"

  choosing did not work.

• Fixed: During AirPlay playback, playlist window was wrongly available via
  POP UP MENU / ENTER.

• Improvement: the recommendation to use System Storage shown on each My
  Collection indexing was not convenient. Now, it includes more detailed
  information and is shown only once (on first indexing); it can also be
  shown by the new button "Details..." in "Collection Management / Data
  Storage" menu.

• Updated/improved UI translations.

• Some other minor improvements/fixes.

     discography, navigate between tracks/albums/artists, etc.
   • For most tracks (almost all popular / well known tracks), Music Videos
     are available and can be played (via "Play..." button in the menu on
     the track screen).
   • (In future, this application is planned to be integrated with the
     planned "My Collection for Music" functionality. Similarly to how
     currently the "Movies" and "My Collection" functionality is
     integrated.)

• New feature: Added support for AirPlay audio streaming (audio only).
   • This feature enables convenient music streaming from mobile
     phones/tables and other devices to Dune HD box. You can do the
     following:
      • On iOS device (iPhone or iPad) or on a Mac, use AirPlay support
        built-in into iOS and Mac OS X to stream music/audio to Dune HD box
        from any iOS or Mac OS X application (or even from any web site in
        a web browser). Just start the playback and choose Dune HD box as
        AirPlay target in the system AirPlay menu.
      • On any device, use 3-party applications with AirPlay support to
        stream music/audio to Dune HD box.
      • On Windows PC, use iTunes application to stream music to Dune HD
        box.
      • On the client device, control music playback in various ways:
        choose tracks, switch between tracks, seek, pause/resume, adjust

     / AirPlay / Enabled".
   • The AirPlay device name can be customized via the setting "Setup /
     Applications / AirPlay / AirPlay Device Name". The default device name
     is "Dune (product_id ID)", where "product_id" is e.g. "duo4k" and "ID"
     is the last 4 characters of the MAC address (e.g. "97EA").

• New feature: Music playback: New GUI design of the music playback screen.
   • The new screen uses improved fonts, improved layout, shows nice
     background image and can show cover art image (when available).
   • A special screensaver version of this screen (with black background

     the corresponding music filenames and JPG files having commonly used
     coverart filenames such as "cover.jpg", "album.jpg", etc.

• New feature: Music playback: Extended support for CUE files.
   • CUE files can now be used not only by launching the corresponding
     audio files, but also directly, by selecting them in the file browser
     and pressing "ENTER" RC button. In this case, the playback of the
     audio file(s) referenced by the CUE file is started.
   • If a CUE file references multiple audio files, this is supported and
     handled properly.
   • If a CUE file references *.wav audio file, but the actual audio file
     is *.flac/*.ape/*.wv, this is is automatically detected and handled
     properly.
   • When multiple files are marked (or a playlist is automatically
     constructed by the pressing "PLAY" RC button on a folder or several
     marked folders), and some files in the playlist are CUE files, this is
     also supported and handled properly (even if both audio file and the
     corresponding CUE file are in the playlist).

• New feature: Duo4K: Front panel display: In playback mode, the
  information about currently played content and the current playback
  position is shown on the front panel display:

  INFO panel (available via "INFO" RC button).

• Improvement: Music playback: Improved encoding detection and handling for
  audio tags in music files.
   • The setting "Misc / Encodings / MP3 tag encoding" is renamed to 
     "Audio file tags encoding".
   • The new value "Auto" is now available for this setting. When chosen,
     the player tries to automatically detect if the encoding is Unicode
     (UTF-8) or not, and if not, to use the encoding corresponding to the
     chosen UI language ("Setup / General / Interface language").
   • The new value "Auto" is now the default value.
      • NOTE: The new default value will take place after settings reset.

• Improvement: Music playback: Improved encoding detection for CUE files
  and playlists.

     firmware version.)

• Improvement: When pressing PLAY on a folder (or on several marked folders
  -- to build the playlist of all items in these folders and their
  subfolders), and the resulting playlist includes both music/media and
  photo/image files, the default choice in the "Choose Action" dialog is
  improved: now it depends on the number of files of diferent types in the
  playlist; e.g. if the playlist consists mostly of music files with only a
  few photo/image files, the default choice is now "Play media files".

• Improvement: Duo4K: Front panel display: When navigating through the main

adopted to the minor hardware changes taking place in the new player
batches. This firmware version is preinstalled on these new player batches,
and it is the first firmware version compatible with these new player
batches; do not install any previous firmware versions to these new player
batches.

Version "161107_1958_r11"
Changes since 160831_0240_r11:
• New feature: The new "Recent" menu added to the main menu. It lists the
  recently played media items (media files or movies from My Collection).
   • This "Recent" menu can also be quickly accessed by pressing "RECENT"
     RC button (available on the RC versions shipped with Solo 4K and Solo
     Lite models); when using the older RC versions w/o "RECENT" RC button
     but with "DUNE" RC button, "DUNE" RC button can also be used.
   • Up to 1000 recent files are shown.
   • Only files which were played for at least 10 seconds are shown.
   • For each file, the last playback progress/position (where the playback
     stopped) is shown. (NOTE: not yet available for FullBD and DVD
     playback modes.)
   • If the file is part of My Collection, the corresponding movie title
     with movie poster is shown in the list.
   • If the file is an episode of a TV series from My Collection, the
     information about the season/episode number is shown in the list; only
     the latest played episode is shown for each TV series.
   • Pressing "ENTER" on a file opens the file in context of its parent
     folder. Pressing "ENTER" again launches the file playback (the last
     playback position is automatically resumed, when technically
     supported).
   • "POP UP MENU" menu allows to remove individual items from the recent
     list ("Clear" action) or clear all items ("Clear all" action).
   • NOTE: The following features are not implemented yet, but are planned
     for future firmware updates:
      • Indicating recent items in My Collection and file browser.
      • Indicating playback progress for files played in FullBD/DVD modes.
      • Opening My Collection UI for files which are part of My Collection.
      • Quick play function by "PLAY" RC button.
      • Providing access to other kinds of recently played items (such as
        online content played via various plugins).
      • Other improvements.

• New feature: The new "Movies" menu added to the main menu. It allows
  browsing the entire database of all movies and TV series (including the
  movies which are not part of My Collection).
   • Movies can be filtered by genres.
   • Movies can be searched by movie title.
   • The movies are sorted in a way to show first both the most popular and
     the most recent movies.
   • For each movie, the same detailed information is provided, as for
     movies in My Collection, including movie poster, fanart background
     images, movie description, cast and crew photos, descriptions,
     filmography.
   • The cast and crew explorer allows to navigate from movie to movie the
     same way as in My Collection.
   • If a movie is a part of My Collection, it can be immediately played
     same way as in My Collection.

• New feature: YouTube movie trailers (and other YouTube video clips
  corresponding to the movie) are now available for all movies in the new
  "Movies" menu and for all movies in My Collection.
   • The movie trailers are listed in the new "Trailers" section on the
     movie screen.
   • Other video clips corresponding to the movie (when available) are
     listed in the new "Add.materials" section on the movie screen.
   • For each video clip, the title and the video resolution is shown.
   • Video clips with up to 1080p video resolution are supported.
   • Video clips in all available languages are shown.
   • Video clips in the user's language (according to "Interface language"
     setting) are shown first.
   • NOTE: Press "ENTER" during video clip playback to choose another video
     clip or navigate to other stuff (just like when playing any other
     video content).
   • NOTE: For movies which are part of My Collection, reindexing is
     required in order to enable YouTube video clips for these movies.

• New feature: My Collection: video files representing trailers and
  additional materials are now listed separately from the video files
  representing the movie itself, in the corresponding new sections
  ("Trailers" and "Add.materials") on the movie screen.

• New feature: My Collection: during indexing, episode titles are
  automatically extracted from filenames (when present in the filenames)
  and then shown in the UI.

• New feature: My Collection: an external storage device (configured as
  System Storage) can be used to store the internal My Collection data and
  caches (such as downloaded and cached images).
   • When System Storage is available, it is used automatically during
     indexing; when it is not available, the internal Flash Memory Storage
     is used as before.
   • When starting using System Storage, the data and caches which were
     previously stored in the internal Flash Memory Storage are preserved.
   • The new "My Collection / Collection Management / Data storage" menu
     allows to check if internal flash memory storage or System Storage is
     currently used for My Collection, and to check for the free storage
     space.
   • To configure System Storage, use "Setup / Misc / System Storage" menu.
   • Also see: http://dune-hd.com/support/usb_flash_drive
   • NOTE: When using My Collection function, it is highly recommended to
     use as fast storage device as System Storage as possible. The
     preference is:
      • 1) An internal SSD-based SATA HDD.
      • 2) An internal regular SATA HDD.
      • 3) A fast USB flash drive (typically it should be a modern USB 3.0 flash
        drive).
   • NOTE: Typical regular USB flash drives are often rather slow and using
     them as System Storage can cause significant slowdowns of My
     Collection indexing operation, and reduced responsiveness of My
     Collection UI; if this takes place, consider the use of faster storage
     device for System Storage.

• New feature: My Collection: when indexing a big collection of movies, and
  the free space in the used storage device (internal Flash Memory Storage,
  or external System Storage) is not enough to store all the required data
  and caches, or no free space remains after the indexing operation, the
  corresponding warning is shown on the "Manage folder" screen.

• New feature: My Collection: the new settings "Store movie posters",
  "Store fan art" and "Store photo" (in "My Collection / Collection
  Management / Data storage" menu) allow to control if to download and
  cache in the flash memory movie posters, fan art images and person photos
  during the indexing operation.
   • When set to "no", the corresponding images are not downloaded and
     cached in the flash memory (and will be fetched online when browsing
     the UI), which makes the indexing faster and reduces the amount of the
     used flash memory space.
   • When set to "yes", the corresponding images are downloaded and cached
     in the flash memory, which makes the indexing slower and requires
     additional space in the flash memory, but avoids the need to fetch the
     images online when browsing the UI.
   • The default is "yes" for all settings.
   • NOTE: In the previous firmware versions, default was not to download
     person photos; downloading person photos could take noticeable
     additional time during indexing; if this not desired, you can disable
     "Store photo" setting.
   • NOTE: Person photos are downloaded only for a few first persons of
     each movie.

• New feature: 3D rendering of subtitles and OSD.
   • Implemented for all playback modes (regular files, BDLite, FullBD).
   • Implemented for all 3D video modes (SBS/TNB, BD3D).
   • The new setting "Playback / Preferences / 3D depth for OSD" allows to
     adjust 3D depth of subtitles and OSD.

• New feature: New renderer for ASS/SSA subtitles with full support for
  ASS/SSA format (including positioning, font size, colors, various
  effects).
   • The new setting "Playback / Subtitles / Enhanced SSA/ASS rendering"
     allows to adjust if TV overscan area should be taken account or not,
     and to disable the new renderer (i.e. enable the old plain text
     renderer).
   • The default is the new renderer.

• New feature: New renderer for plain text subtitles based on TTF fonts.
   • The new setting "Playback / Subtitles / Text subtitles font type"
     allows to switch between the new renderer (TTF) and the old renderer
     (based on Dune proprietary font format).
   • The default is the new renderer.

• New feature: Ability to choose TTF font for subtitles, with two fonts
  (Light and Regular) preincluded, and ability to install custom TTF fonts.
   • Available via the new setting "Playback / Subtitles / Text subtitles
     TTF font".
   • The default is "Regular".
   • To install a custom TTF font, launch ".ttf" file in the file browser.

• New feature: Ability to choose TTF font for the advanced parts of UI
  which use TTF fonts (such as Movie screen in My Collection function),
  with two fonts (Light and Regular) preincluded, and ability to install
  custom TTF fonts.
   • Available via the new setting "Appearance / UI TTF font".
   • The default is "Light".
   • To install a custom TTF font, launch ".ttf" file in the file browser.

• New feature: Automatic detection of text subtitles encoding for Korean
  language (automatic switch between EUC-KR and Unicode encodings).

• New feature: Automatic detection of text subtitles encoding for Chinese
  language (traditional and simplified) (automatic switch between GB231,
  BIG5 and Unicode encodings).

• New feature: Support for playback of PCM audio streams via HTTP (streamed
  PCM WAV), useful for some integrations.

• Improvement: My Collection: posters, photos and background images are
  loaded faster and more efficiently; UI responsiveness during background
  image loading is improved.

• Improvement: My Collection: when starting more than 3 indexing operations
  in the parallel, only 3 indexing operations are really executed in the
  parallel, with other operations waiting in the queue and executed
  sequentially. This helps to prevent too big load on the player which may
  cause UI stuttering.

• Improvement: My Collection: indexing: improved handling of file and
  folder names in specific cases.

• Improvement: My Collection: indexing: improved handling of TV series
  episodes when recognizing video files by their fingerprints.

• Improvement: My Collection: when waiting for long operations, "Please
  wait..." message is shown instead of often misleading "Connecting...".

• Improvement: When formatting System Storage, more optimal formatting
  options are used to allow to store bigger number of files even on not
  very big partitions. (Previously, installing too many plugins or storing
  too many files could cause "No space left on device" errors even when
  only a small part of System Storage was actually used.)
   • NOTE: If you encounter such a problem, or if you plan to use System
     Storage for My Collection and your collection is rather big, it is
     recommended to reformat and reinitialize System Storage.

• Improvement: When initializing System Storage, not only an empty
  formatted partition can be used, but also an unformatted partition, or an
  empty partition containing only some empty system folders.

• Improvement: When a network folder is renamed, the references to this
  network folder and the media content in this network folder (in
  "Favorites" menu, in "My Collection" function, in "Recent" menu) are
  preserved and continue to work correctly. (Internally, each network
  folder is now assigned an internal persistent ID.)

• Improvement: All arrow RC buttons (LEFT/RIGHT and UP/DOWN) now by default
  trigger visual time seek operation when playing seekable media content.
   • The new setting "Playback / Control / LEFT/RIGHT buttons" allows to
     adjust the behavior of LEFT/RIGHT buttons, with possible options "Time
     seek" (the new default), "Volume control", "Choose function via
     SELECT" (corresponds to the old behavior).
   • The new setting "Playback / Control / UP/DOWN buttons" allows to
     adjust the behavior of UP/DOWN buttons, with possible options "Time
     seek" (the new default) and "Switch channels/files" (corresponds to
     the old behavior, also available with PREV/NEXT RC buttons).

• Improvement: Added several improvements and fixes for Kartina.TV
  application (fix for possible server interaction failure, avoiding
  unneeded rebuffering when playback position was not actually changed
  during seek operation, improved cursor position after switching to the
  previous/next day in the EPG, sync with the latest changes in the server
  API).

• Improvement: More correct handling of errors when playing media streams
  via RTSP protocol.

• Improvement: More optimized CPU usage when playing media streams via RTSP
  protocol.

• Fixed: My Collection: it was impossible to play a TV series episode when
  the episode was a BD or DVD image.

• Fixed: My Collection: "Add to My Collection" function did not work in
  some cases for folders on SMB shares.

• Fixed: My Collection: indexing: wrong indexing status could be reported
  in some cases after switching the player off or rebooting the player in
  other ways.

• Fixed: My Collection: the UI for manual editing associations between
  files and movies did not work correctly in some specific rare cases.

• Fixed: My Collection: minor other fixes for specific use cases.

• Fixed: FullBD: When playing trimmed BD images, the function of automatic
  resuming last playback position worked wrongly in some cases (different
  BD images were not distinguished properly from each other).

• Fixed: FullBD: When HDMI 3D support is disabled in player settings, BD3D
  discs still wrongly assumed that 3D is available.

• Fixed: When playing AC3 audio tracks in AVI or MKV container in audio
  bitstream mode, various problems (such as A/V desync or disappearing
  audio) could happen in some cases.

• Fixed: When playing MKV files, wrongly declared AAC audio tracks were not
  recognized in some cases.

• Fixed: Playback of MPEG-TS files/streams with DVB subtitles could crash
  in some cases.

• Fixed: Some exotic FLAC files could not be played.

• Fixed: PAL sound speed correction function did not work correctly in some
  cases.

• Fixed: VXP demo mode did not work properly.

• Fixed: DVB-C scan/playback did not work properly in some DVB-C networks.

• Fixed: When pressing "ENTER" RC button (to show the main menu) while the
  buffering was in progress, the playback could hang in some specific
  cases.

• Fixed: When toggling the main menu showing during the playback (via "TOP
  MENU" RC button or in other ways), and then stopping the playback, the
  playback could hang in some specific cases.

• Fixed: When using the time search function (enter HH:MM:SS time
  position), the cursor was displayed at a wrong location.

• Fixed: HDD spindown did not work correctly in some cases when entering
  standby mode.

• Fixed: SoloLite: Wi-Fi access point setup menu wrongly allowed to choose
  unsupported 5.0 GHz mode (which is supported by Solo4K only).

• Updated/improved UI translations.

• Various other minor improvements/fixes.

Version "160831_0240_r11"
Changes since 160824_2122_r11:
This firmware version adds "My Collection" application  -- a built-in
Jukebox for automatic indexing and nice visualization of movies
collections. For more information, see here:
   http://dune-hd.com/support/my_collection

Version "160824_2122_r11" (BETA version)
Changes since 160607_0238_r11:
• New feature: Added support for playback of multichannel SACD files
  encoded as multichannel uncompressed DSD.

• New feature: Added support for playback of stereo SACD files which use
  DST compression.

• New feature: Added support for playback of 7.1 channel AAC audio tracks
  (previously, only up to 5.1 channels were supported for AAC).

• New feature: FullBD: Added a new OSD menu providing access to various
  playback settings, such as deinterlacing settings (similar to the OSD
  menu available during file playback). The menu can be called via "SETUP"
  RC button.

• New feature: Added picture adjustment settings (brightness, contrast,
  saturation, hue). Available for all kinds of video playback, including
  file playback, BDLite playback, FullBD playback.

• New feature: Added ability to configure VXP settings via "Setup / Video /
  VXP Settings" menu. The following settings are available: enable/disable
  VXP adaptive constrast enhancement, demo mode for VXP adaptive control
  enhancement, VXP shadows enhancement (0..20), VXP highlights enhancement
  (0..20). This in particular allows to persistently enable VXP with
  particular settings for all video content. NOTE: VXP adaptive
  deinterlacing is also supported (as before, enabled by default and
  accessible via deinterlacing settings during video playback).

• New feature: Added a new option ("Setup / Video / Playback / Misc /
  Remember VXP settings") allowing to remember the latest VXP mode selected
  during video playback. When set to "Yes", the latest VXP mode selected
  during video playback (via "C" RC button or via playback menu) is
  remembered persistently. When set to "No", it is not remembered and the
  default value specified in "Setup / Video / VXP Settings" menu is used on
  each new playback. By default, set to "Yes".

• New feature: When pressing "ENTER" RC button during video playback, the
  main menu is opened by default now, instead of the playback menu.
  Contrary to the use of "TOP MENU" RC button (which just switches between
  the playback and the latest state of the main menu), "ENTER" RC button
  opens the main menu exactly at the point from which the playback was
  started, which helps for example to view the information about what is
  played, to choose a different TV series episode, etc. This is especially
  useful when using Jukebox applications. The old playback menu is
  available by pressing "POP UP MENU" RC button and choosing "Playback
  menu". The old behavior of "ENTER" RC button can be restored via the new
  setting "Setup / Playback / Control / ENTER button for video". Also there
  are new similar settings for audio and TV playback (with old behavior
  taking place by default).

• New feature: Added support for playback of DVB-T2 channels encoded using
  HEVC video codec, and support for 4K HEVC DVB-T2 channels.

• New feature: Added a new option "Setup / Applications / Digital TV / Hide
  Internet/HbbTV channels". When enabled, it hides the corresponding
  channels in the list of DVB-T2 channels (useful because such channels
  often do not contain useful video stream). Enabled by default.

• Improvement: Added support for specific MP4 files with HEVC or H.264
  video streams represented in "plain" form.

• Improvement: When playing MKV files or BDLite, the title line shown in
  INFO OSD now contains more useful information.

• Improvement: Rendering of DVB subtitles when playing MPEG-TS files or
  streams improved to avoid unneeded subtitles blinking in specific cases.

• Improvement: When a file can not be opened (e.g. because of wrong
  permissions), a more correct message "File can not be opened" is shown
  instead of "Format is not supported".

• Improvement: Improved the hint that "TOP MENU" RC button can be used to
  switch between the background playback ("Now Playing") and the main menu
  is improved (more correct icon is displayed). Also, during background
  video playback, the "playback" icon at the right bottom corner of the
  screen is not longer shown (because it is only confusing and is not
  really needed). The special "audio" icon when playing background audio is
  still shown there, as before.

• Improvement: Added several improvements and fixes for Kartina.TV
  application (playback of DASH streams could be not optimal, playback of
  UDT streams did not handle network/server errors in an optimal way, crash
  could happen in specific rare cases when adjusting application settings,
  cursor position in EPG was wrong when switching between days).

• Improvement: The detection of CAS-protected encrypted streams (such as
  DVB-T2 or multicast streams) is improved, to prevent showing "Access
  denied" errors when it is not needed (e.g. when the stream contains a lot
  of broken packets).

• Improvement: STB API for playback of HLS streams is extended to support
  "Pause Live TV" and "Live Seek" functionality (useful for specific IPTV
  applications based on STB API). Various related improvements in HLS
  playback engine.

• Fixed: When playing TrueHD/Atmos audio tracks, stuttering could take
  place in some cases when OSD or subtitles were shown over video.

• Fixed: FullBD: When playing BD3D, stuttering could take place, especially
  when playing BD3D second time.

• Fixed: FullBD: When playing BD3D, 2D/3D content could not be recognized
  properly and 2D/3D output modes could not be configured properly in some
  specific cases.

• Fixed: The setting "Setup / Audio / Maximum digital outputs sample rate"
  was not actually working, and HDMI receiver capabilities regarding
  supported sample rate were not taken into account. Now this works
  correctly, which allows to ensure compatibility with old S/PDIF
  receivers, to for example to play 176KHz SACD or music concert BD with
  96KHz PCM on a basic HDMI TV.

• Fixed: When playing subtitles in certain formats (in parficular PGS),
  various problems could take place in specific rare cases, for example
  garbage could be shown on the screen, or playback crashes could happen.

• Fixed: File playback: When playing MP4 files with DD or DD+ audio tracks,
  A/V synchronization could be lost in some specific cases (especially
  after seek).

• Fixed: File playback: When playing MKV files with DD audio tracks, audio
  playback problems could take place in some specific cases.

• Fixed: When playing specific HEVC video streams with specific problems in
  the stream, playback could hang with impossibility to further play any
  HEVC video. Now in such cases the playback is recovered automatically.
  Implemented for regular files, multicast streams, DVB-T2 streams.

• Fixed: When playing a sequence of audio files (based on the same audio
  codec and the same encoding parameters) using HDMI output, a small
  portion at the beginning of each next audio file was lost and was not
  heard (because of unneeded HDMI audio reconfiguration).

• Fixed: A short burst of noise audio could be heard in some specific cases
  when starting the playback of MP3 or AAC Internet radio stream.

• Fixed: MPEG-TS playback could crash in some specific cases when specific
  DVB subtitles were used.

• Fixed: AES-encrypted HLS streams could not be played in some specific
  cases.

• Fixed: The feature allowing to correctly play BDLite with obfuscated
  playlists (when an external Jukebox utilizing this possibility is used,
  such as MyMovies), did not work ("item_id" dune_param parameter in
  media_url did not work).

• Fixed: When PHP-plugin used playback of HTTP/TS media_url with dune_param
  paraemeters, the functionality of automatic playback recovery on network
  errors was not working.

• Fixed: When scanning DVB-T/T2 channels, 0 Mhz frequence could be wrongly
  shown in some cases.

• Fixed: Images used by PHP-plugins could not be loaded in some specific
  cases. (E.g. images used by tree.tv plugin.)

• Fixed: When GUI screenshot was captured, the previous picture instead of
  the current one could be wrongly used in some cases.

• Various other minor improvements/fixes.

Version "160607_0238_r11"
Changes since 160607_0237_r11:
Patch update for the version 160607_0237_r11, contains fixes for a few
problems introduced in that version.

• Fixed: When entering a folder in the file browser, the player wrongly
  attempted to read and analyze the content of each file in the folder,
  that caused unintended update of last access timestamp (and could cause
  performance problems for large folders).

• SMB server and SMB browser software updated from Samba version 4.3.8
  (which turned out to introduce some bugs, e.g. problems with getting the
  list of available shares of a server) to version 4.3.10 (the latest
  currently available 4.3.x version, which includes the fixes for these
  bugs). More information:
   • https://www.samba.org/samba/history/samba-4.3.10.html
   • https://www.samba.org/samba/history/samba-4.3.9.html

  • Supported features: chapters in DFF, chapters in ISO, tags in DSF, tags
    (ID3) in DFF, song names in ISO (7-bit ASCII only).
  • NOTE: The DSD audio stream is decoded to PCM; the receiver or TV should
    support receiving PCM audio in the corresponding formats (e.g. 176.4
    KHz).

• New feature: Added support for external audio tracks in MKA format when
  playing MKV files.

• New feature: Added support for exFAT filesystem (read-write).

• New feature: Added support for HFS/HFS+ filesystems (read-only).

• New feature: Sorting of files by filenames in the file browser now uses
  alphanumeric sorting algorithm, which properly orders e.g. "9" and "10",
  to better handle filenames with numbers (such as season/episode numbers
  in TV series).

• New feature: SMB browser: added ability to browse the content of servers
  which require login/password to view the list of available shares: login
  dialog pops automatically on an attempt to enter such a server; "Connect
  as user" function is also available in the POPUP MENU for the server;
  login/password entered to connect to the server are remembered and
  automatically used when connecting to shares of this server.

• New feature: Wi-Fi AP: added possibility to use Wi-Fi access point not
  only in Router mode, but also in Bridge mode (with Wi-Fi clients getting
  IP addresses directly in the Ethernet network the player is connect to).

• New feature: Wi-Fi AP: added ability to specify the Wi-Fi channel to be
  used by Wi-Fi access point.

• New feature: Wi-Fi AP: added support to run Wi-Fi access point in 5.0GHz
  802.11n and 5.0GHz 802.11ac modes.

• Improvement: FullBD: improved rendering quality of PGS subtitles.

• Improvement: FullBD: improved compatibility with certain BD images with
  wrong BDMV structure.
