Thank you very much for the reply!!! Yeahh !!! Installed from the link you gave me. Incredible now if it works and I can watch movies but only at 1080p. I hope to see them at 4k. I was a little desperate, mainly I had bought this Nas for this and for downloading torrents. Thanks

I'm on the same situation, searching for some solution because I bought it exclusively for the hdmi 2.0 and possibility to play 4k movies itself. Does anybody know any other solution? Thank you.

I'm not sure about it. However I believe you can send a support request to asustor directly. https://support.asustor.com/

[Kodi 18.0] AS5202T/AS5304T package to support 4K 10bits videos
Postby Patrick » Wed Aug 07, 2019 10:45 am

Hi,

ASUSTOR announce new models AS5202T and AS5304T and ADM 3.4 with kernel 4.14.
Equipped with intel CPU HW decode capability, I try to package kodi 18.0 to support 4K HEVC 10bits(HDR) videos playback.

Finally, kodi 18.0 package is ready for installing and testing.
After installing kodi 18.0, 4K HVEC 10 bits videos can playback well in AS5202T / AS5304T which cannot playback well in kodi 17.6.
P.S: DTS and AC3 can work in this package.

I don't have many 4K HEVC 10bits videos for testing, I cannot sure if this package can fulfill all your requirement or not.
Have a try if you have AS5202T/AS5304T.

The version can only work well for AS5202T/AS5304T, since intel CPU in other models may not have 4K HEVC 10bits HW decode capability.

I just keep to porting kodi 18.3 in case there may have some improvement from kodi team.

Testing package:

I just got AS5304T with Kodi 18. And almost all of my hevc, 4k, 10 bit can play well with Dolby and DTS! Great!

Some buttons in the remote control or the Airemote do not work with this Kodi but the up, down, left, right, OK can work so that is not a big issue at all.

[Mr.F]

May I ask how did you install Kodi 18 if Asustor don't support Kodi?

Simply install this 3rd party software manually...

I've installed Patrick's Kodi 18 but Kodi can't "see" my NAS whether it is NFS or Windows selected (NFS enabled on NAS).

I'd read Philippe has stopped his Plex Media Player because Patrick has released a new one and it is available on App Central but I can't find it?
