1K Club - QQ Shooting Star
Anyone who has this player may be interested to know that a new firmware (21-1031) has just been released. Mine's set to auto update over the internet and I did the update this morning. It went without hitch and no problems detected so far.
Details are here: https://techsupport.cambridgeaudio....662-Click-Here-For-The-Latest-Firmware-Update
And here's a cut and paste of the text:
Features of the new update (version 752BD(CU)-21-1031) include;
Improved subtitle support for user-created media.
Improved support for user-created WAV files with non-standard metadata tags.
Improved gapless playback for 176 / 88.2 kHz WAV files.
Resolved a bass management issue where the subwoofer would clip when 0 dB signals were sent to all channels when one speaker was set to small.
Resolved a frame rate conversion issue where 25 Hz and 50 Hz user-created media was converted to 60 Hz when TV System was set to Multi.
Resolved an audio loss issue that could occur with MKV files with Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD MA audio tracks. For proper bitstream output of a Dolby TrueHD sound track in MKV files, the sound track must contain the full Dolby TrueHD audio data, including both the MLP and AC3 parts. If the AC3 part has been stripped out, the MLP audio cannot be output as bitstream and will be decoded into LPCM. The resultant LPCM will retain the full quality of Dolby TrueHD.
Added support for ARIB STD-B25 and ISDB fonts.
Fixed a channel re-mapping error where 7.1 MKV plays as 5.1
Resolved an issue where some MP3 files bought from Amazon Music Store are skipped
Resolved an issue where "Exiting" YouTube doesn't return to the Home menu.
Fixed an issue where the RS-232 command #QPL responds with @QPL OK HOME when the player is in the following states: “NO DISC”, “LOADING”, “OPEN”, and “CLOSE”.
General disc compatibility improvements based on recent and upcoming Blu-ray releases as well as user-submitted disc samples. Expanded the character set library to support more languages in external subtitles.
All features and improvements of the previous firmware are also included in this version.
Note: playback of BDMV folders/files, ISO files and SACD-R is not supported due to copy protection laws.
