Key Features
Modern S905W2 media processor with AV1 and 4Kp60 HDR10+
- The media player uses the modern S905W2 media processor. It ensures excellent picture quality, supports 4Kp60 HDR10+ decoding and output, includes the new AV1 video codec, and has good performance overall.
Full 4Kp60 HDR10+ video support
- The media player supports both 4Kp60 HDR10+ video decoding and 4Kp60 HDR10+ video output. The media player can downscale 4K content to any resolution and upscale any content to 4K resolution. YouTube 4K HDR is supported.
AV1 video codec
- The media player supports the new AV1 video codec, which helps to get up to 50% video quality improvement without increasing video bitrate (or requires up to 50% lesser bitrate for the same video quality). This new video codec is already used by YouTube and will be increasingly important for compatibility with various video services and content sources.
Excellent performance
- The media player has a modern CPU (four 1.8 GHz ARM A35 cores) and GPU (Mali G31). This gives increased performance in comparison with the previous generation of affordable Dune HD media players.
2 GB operating memory
- 2GB of operating memory allows smooth operation of the media player.
16 GB flash memory
- 16GB flash memory provides enough space for system needs and applications, and also gives room for internal storage which can be used for any purpose. For example, you can store media files in the internal storage and even share them to the local network via the built-in SMB file server.
HDR10+
- The media player supports not only HDR technology, but also more advanced HDR10+ technology. In conventional HDR technology, the brightness range is set at the beginning of the film and does not change during the film, so completely dark and completely bright scenes may have insufficient detail. In the HDR10+ technology, the brightness range can vary from frame to frame, so the maximum picture detail is provided even in scenes that contain only dark or only light elements.
Extended support for multichannel audio
- The media player can decode all audio formats (up to Dolby TrueHD Atmos and DTS X) to multichannel PCM (up to 7.1 channels). The media player can output bitstream passthrough for DD/DTS audio formats (5.1 channels).
Android 11
- For Android applications, the media player uses a modern Android version 11. This increases system performance and gives improved compatibility with the newest Android apps.
