Perhaps I’m not, the audio sync issue is one, I tried to toggle the auto keystone button that didn’t solve it, I saw in Kodi settings there are adjustments for it, haven’t tried it yet and if it works for one file what about others? Do I have to make adjustments every time before I watch a movie

Kodi offers both a global audio offset and a per-file offset, and it memorizes both.

Is the colors locked on the HDMI port?

Or is there a way to edit them.

Ive edit the color in the ordinary Menu + the Other you can access throu Clicking 5 times On the version.

But this dosent follow over to the hdmi?

Using the color settings from the hidden menu is NOT recommended. Avoid changing them and yes, it only affects the internal display. At the moment, there’s no way to adjust the color for external devices but there’s an app released to beta testers that has many preset “looks” and also the ability to adjust each LED.

Can the listed Built-in apps be updated via Aptoide?

Yes, you can update the built-in apps in Aptoide TV. Just remember to NEVER update Nextflix and MX Player. Those are special, patched versions.

If you add other apps from other sources, you will probably want to update those from that source and not from Aptoide TV even though an “update” might be available in there.

Hi users, fyi update 1.1.02 is available now, just one urgent change related to a bug with light engine startup on some units.

Updated to v1.1.02 without issues. So far so good. Thanks.

Hopefully solving some of the issues where people have fan noise and audio but no projector output? Was it a sequencing error between power rails and PROJ_ON pin?

I can’t start a new post for some reason…

I just updated to the firmware that came out yesterday 1.102
When I ran Netflix it said a new version was available - being that all the advice I’ve seen so far is to NOT update - is it safe to do so now?

Also - I have the Pico on my bed firing up at the ceiling - with auto keystone set to automatic the Homepage appears in a rhombus shape - the bottom left and right sides of the screen are wider than the top, this can be fixed by manually doing keystone correction but it makes the projected screen smaller - is this how it should be performing?

Hmmmm. Downloaded the update to do it offline. Used a USB stick I’ve used for the previous update (and nothing else since), AND a different stick, both formatted to FAT32, and yet the PicoPix is telling me that they’re exFAT. Online update it is, then!

What is wrong with this download server?

I’ve tried downloading the file locally, I get random 404’s or the file starts and then stops, or it takes minutes to start downloads a tiny amount then stops.

Tried on a different broadband connection on a different ISP hundreds of miles away with the same result.

Online update does the same, either tells me nothing it available (after a long delay) or starts, downloads a bit very slowly then stops.

No, never update Netflix.

Is anyone seeing increased screen lockups with 1.1.02? It’s becoming totally unusable. :frowning: I can still reboot the unit with the remote. All internal apps or the main UI.

When it’s frozen, the resolution seems to be halved… and audio may continue to play. Only a reboot can fix it. Maybe I just have a failing unit?

Plugged in via supplied charger and USB-C cable. I have one of the earliest units. A factory reset didn’t help.

Update: If I run the unit on battery only, it seems to work fine. This is frustrating. And when I plug the unit in live after playing on battery for a while (red charging light on top), video will soon lockup.

Excited to try the updated software. Thank you for all the recent updates. :blush:

Amazon App Store and Crave TV -

  1. When I use my Apple TV, the Crave App is just plug and play. Is there a way to achieve this on the PPM?

  2. If not, how do I get the Amazon App Store on the PPM? If side loading is the only method, please clarify what this means and how to do this.

I’m sorry for cross posting. I also posted this question on the appropriate thread 19 days ago and a reminder 8 days ago, but haven’t received a response yet.

Ok. That would be nice to have those options.

I think for my part, getting the most out of the PPM i had to fine tune the settings in the hidden menu also.

Im made my own screen with grey background.

Sadly the last update put the setting in the HIDDEN menu, to some recommended settings from philipps that i read in some tread here.

But it looked like crap here in my opinion after the update.

So i had to put them too place again.

I quiet happy with the colors and picture at the moment, the skin tone is a Little Yellow thou.

I Will Take some pictures before and after the update this time if the settings are set to recommended again so you can see the difference.
