    1. Netflix drag their feet and only authorize a few brands. Amlogic have concentrated on Google certified

  1. Well they as normal on Aliexpress confuse customers by posting mixed up specifications. On part mentions Mali-G52 MP4 the next it is a Mali-G52 MP6. Do they ever employ proof readers, instead of cut and past marketing people?

    Well Beelink have been giving away samples to reviewers and promoters, so should see positive, motivated reviews online soon.

    1. when i was interested in this mali G52 gpu characteristics, i understood that its cores could be configured with either 2 or 3 execution engines
      it seems S922 uses 2 cores with 3 EE so this makes 6 execution engines

      i don’t know if there’s an official naming convention with bifrost mali gpu, but amlogic decided to call this MP6 while i wonder if this should be called MP2 instead

      i think the MP4 confusion comes from another amlogic SoC, the A311D (quite similar with S922X), which should be 2 cores / 2 EE per core

  2. I’d be happy if it can be Cast to reliably… I don’t bother with Netflix! Should be good for emulators though.

  3. who knows if it suffers from overheating (trottle)…
    design isn’t as Odroid-N2 (heatsink)

  4. Wonder what situations Dolby Vision will work. Will CNX be get getting one for testing?

    Dolby Vision From a UHD rip including Atmos would be great!

    1. Dolby Vision requires a license which I doubt this device will have.
      Kodi also doesn’t support Dolby Vision, not even LibreELEC.
      Only Netflix and a few other apps support it but then you need a Google and Netflix Certified AndroidTV device for it to work. Kodi is also is in the process to drop all Amlogic hacks, so doubt passthrough audio will work unless there is a future ota update that uses the standard Android Audio API’s – https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/16043

      1. They will find a way for some hacks :).But about Amlogic- on Amlogic s905x2 don’t work deinterlacing -they remove some codec from SDK why they do that? maybe someone know more about missing codec?I think on new s922 is same situation is not rdy for end users I hope they will fix that codec issues….in future
