4k VP9 no video

[claudiorenato182]

First, congratulations for de app. Very good.

In my generic android 4.4.2 box with 4k "suport", i can't play the videos in 4k or 1080 using de VP9 codec, but with AVC codec plays very well in 1080 and "2k" (there's no option for 4k in AVC in the list).

In theory, android 4.4.2 has suport for vp9

Thanks.

Hi. Won't be fixed. I'm pretty sure that your box isn't capable to hw decode such videos.

Will not be AVC 4K support?
I have MiTV3S, but VP9 not play fine

4k@avc should be soon. I've found the solution.

Hi Yuliskov,

Is 4K@AVC available yet ? I have Mi4 4K@VP (v6.16.42)but heavy dropped frames.

@liliass google tries to get rid of avc formats. So, I think avc will disappear even on full hd videos.
