Octagon SF-4008(4K) Bugs, Issues, and Problems

[el bandido]

I do not see any major problems being reported with Kodi, and the parts of Kodi I tested over the weekend worked very well.

Blindscan is supposed to be the next Octagon project for the SF4008.

Hello EB
My box is having a hell of a time with these new drivers, there is no audio and not just on one image is in most of them VIX, SATGREAM,ATV,OPENEIGHT,EGAMI, if I go back to the early updates like the beginning of this month or earlier than I get the audio back, I compare the settings from an earlier image with audio to the latest image and there is no difference, I hope nothing got corrupted.
Let me know if you have any Ideas.
Regards.

Have you changed the HDMI cable?
There is a 9-20 online update on SatDreamGr image. Did you install and test it?

[chewie]

I did installed all the update from yesterday and no sound, I haven't change the HDMI cable yet, but like I mentioned it works fine with earlier images, The HDMI is going true a HDMI switch, I am going to bypass it and see if it corrects the problem, I'll let you know.
Regards.

I visit several other forums that have many SF4008 users. I would expect to see a thread or threads on this subject if the sound issues was from the driver or image updates. Check your settings in the receiver and try another HDMI cable.

There are sound problems on Dolby sound since 15th September. It is a driver issue which, to date, is unresolved. Reports are available in a number of forums.

Feel free to post the links to other forums where this issue is being discussed. I would like to look at what they are saying.

So the channels without Dolby audio should work?

I have not had any problems yet with audio, but I am not a multiboot user either. Don't know if that has anything to do with it or not.
