Hi. Did you download the Kodi app from the Playstore on the TV? Do you need to install Atmos and DTS codec? P8S does not support Dolby Atmos.

srt subtitles work. I always prefer Kodi. Not hard to set up. Can play local files, HDD or link to desktop PC.

Anyone received the update for P8S? I did not receive any update or must you update manually? And yes even with auto brightness turned off the screen dims during dark or less illuminated scenes for both games and movies.

Sorry to bother you bro but I have enable passthrough on my TV and ARC is enabled to my receiver Kodi detects it as Dolby TrueHD but my receiver only picks it up as a DD+ signal. On the P8S if I set digital audio out to anything other then Auto the receiver won’t pick up the Dolby signal. I figure this is a limitation on the TV where the chip only picks up Dolby Digital Plus? Which is weird when passthrough is enabled.
