KEAOS (Software) UPDATES

There's no policy in place to update standalone systems on the same account in lockstep. All components in the same system have to be on the same version, but for standalone players, the timing can differ.
 
Just got my STRATO V updated today at 2:10pm MST! Was reading thru some comments on here and it appears a reboot/restart from the web settings menu is recommended? Any advice on this? Standalone sV.
 
No reboot required. You’re good to go.

When a software update is downloaded and unpacked, the system will automatically reboot itself during an idle period to apply the upgrade. So if your system is running the new build it has already rebooted. Rebooting it again is redundant and will likely just interrupt any background processes that may be running.
 
My V updated to kOS 26.1.1-27063 on August 24,

HDR10/Dolby Vision fixes (Strato K, V, E, M)
  • HDR10 content now plays with correct metadata.
  • Dolby Vision content output as HDR10 will now preserve the original dynamic range more faithfully, avoiding tone-mapping.

Do have any idea what "more faithfully" actually means? :)

Pretty sure I am still better off avoiding DV versions with my JVC but might try a few titles I had issues with DV->HDR10 in the past out to see if I notice any improvement.
 
I feel like I'm the only one still on the old software. How long do these pushes take to hit everyone? I only have one Strato K and I'm still on the old firmware version from June.

Omg that new firmware is the bees knees! You’re are seriously missing out! My Strato K is now performing at ludicrous speed. Lol JK!

It can take quite a bit depending on which wave you land in, and that is down to luck. It took forever for my V to get 26.1.0
 
Is there a newer update that addresses the hdmi issues a lot of users are having? I finally did get the July/aug update a few weeks back but it didn’t fix any of the hdmi problems. I still use hdmi 2.0 mode.

Friend just reported he got a September update that helps his hdmi. I am out of town until Wednesday so can’t check on mine.

I wasn't aware of it, but just checked and found:

26.1.2-27147 Sept 23

I don't have a Strato K, with no HDMI issues using my Strato C, so can't comment on any changes it might have introduced.
 
Maybe mine will update in a month or so. I only have one K and they say the K systems have some priority but if the last update is any indication I am very low on the list to receive updates.
 
My Strato S also updated. Any details about the bugfix, @tayloe ?

Your system upgraded to kOS 26.1.2-27147 on September 26.
 
Mine updated on Oct. 1 and my HDMI issues have been worse since then. I am to the point now to where the only way I can get a signal to my projector is by setting the Strato K to output at 1080p.

Strato K -> Anthem AVM90 8k -> MadVR Envy Core MK1 -> Epson LS12000
