Just a heads-up for everyone following this thread…
We do now have an Amazon Fire TV Cube in house.
We are also testing a workaround that * knocks on wood * seems to be looking pretty good.
The delay indeed has been longer than we’d like, but initial investigation showed the problem was in the Fire TV decoder which is outside of our power or view.
We had provided the details of this to Amazon along with test video they could use to reproduce the problem. They subsequently promised a fix in the next Amazon firmware update… But that didn’t materialize.
When it was clear they had better things to do, we began actively pursing a solution, however…
This is exactly what we wanted to avoid. And tweaks of this nature require the support of our chip provider.
Anywho, long story short we’re getting closer to a fix that should allow everyone to enjoy their Fire TV 4K dongles and Cubes.
Once we’ve got it nailed down, we’ll be sure to let everyone know.
