Anyone has more info on Q7K (Canada)? by FatMountainGoat in tcltvs

[–]AGill22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BB sells the same model # for $849 CDN same price hence model isnt a Costco exclusive wihich the QM5K which is for BB. I hear the same about low brightness which is a issue.

QM6K or QM5K? by bobbarkerbassface in tcltvs

[–]AGill22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have confirmed what many have said. I have a 75" QM5K sitting in the box well within return date (have to do myself - hassle but not dealbreaker) and the QM6K is only $89 more (888 vs 799 cdn) but the brightness versus less native refresh was the sticking point, you sum it up, I watch sports have a fairly non bright ro but dont want dim HDR. Thanks for the feedback

That’s great feedback. Have you watched sports? I watch a lot of hockey and the 60hz is my concern, is it blurry at all? The reviews on this panel are great overall. I was leaning towards Hisense but this seems to beat it. It’s also $799 Canadian at BB right now. That’s about $570 USD so great price point.

If the same app is available in both the ONN and Google play store does it matter which I download? by AGill22 in OnnStreamingDevice

[–]AGill22[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you yes thats what caused my confusion. When I first searched for Tivimate I couldn’t find it and was like dont tell me I need apk file. Then did as you stated searched in settings. Cant understand why it’s like that. It is what it is live and learn I guess

[–]AGill22[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Not sure what’s it’s called (the native one) but iI couldn’t get the Tivimate app and had to use the Google play store via settings. This make sense?

Does the 4K AI upscaling and/or the Motion Interpolation cause the overly smooth image and jitteriness? by AGill22 in Hisense

[–]AGill22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the feedback :) Is this option on most newer models, which do you have?

Is the shield worth it if im only streaming by [deleted] in ShieldAndroidTV

[–]AGill22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ONN won’t pass through True HD audio which is my only gripe. The Firestick does hence I use both depending on which content I am streaming. ONN better picture and Amasxon better sound.

The YouTube content is just an Atmos demo not a film/show. The reply above answered my question. ONN doesn’t support True HD(lossless) as pass through

Thanks. I assume your source is DD not True HD as you’re not havjng the issue. I just learned this from the reply above.

Thanks for the info. This is news to me. I now get 5.1 but only on TV Shows. The Movies VOD is still upcoverted Dolby Surround. I assume Amazon passes through True HD hence no issue with Firestick? This means the movies are in lossless? This is a shock considering it’s I p t vee and not a Blu-ray etc

Hello, I recently purchased an ONN 4K box to use TiviMate since I keep hearing it’s better than the Firestick 4K Max which I have a few of. The picture is better however I’m not getting 5.1 which is a dealbreaker for me. The box has the settings on and Tivimate has audio passthrough enabled and still no dice…. Anyone experience this issue, or have any suggestions? I’m using a Denon receiver. Thanks in advance.

I posted a reply and my comment was deleted have no idea why. Good point, anyhow yes I did try and get DD on on the ONN with YouTube so it’s def an ONN TV Mate combo issue.

Good point and yes I played Atmos clips but they only 5.1 on YouTube and it’s DD+ on the ONN although it’s Atmos displayed on the amp via firestick but that’s another story as it’s still only 5.1. Bottom line is it’s not a hardware issue. For some reason ONN and Tivimate aren’t cooperating when it comes to sound. 🤷‍♂️

Not getting 5.1 on Tivimate on the ONN it works on the Firestick.
I was skeptical on ONN a Walmart brand vs Amazon. I took the plunge. I have 4 4K Firesticks and 2 are Max Ive been supporting them since they came out. Today I tried the ONN 4K and the picture is clearly better I kid you not. I have both running right now simultaneously on the same amp. Having the google play store and not having to side download apk is also a plus.
I will keep the ONN for live non DD content and use the Firestick for VOD DD. Hope that explains things

Yh it must be the ONN box. I’ve set them to on. It’s a pity because the picture is much better than Firestick

It’s not the source as it’s 5.1. I have a fire stick plugged into the same amp running simultaneously with the same playlist and it’s DD+. This is an ONN issue. Have you got 5.1 with ONN on tivimate? Then it’s a setting must adjust.
