![]() The tablet charges really slowly, taking at least four hours with the included 9W power adaptor. The tablet will last a couple of days with mixed use or more than 12 hours streaming video over wifi, according to my testing – but of course, playing graphically intensive games significantly decreases battery life. A dedicated game mode automatically optimises the tablet for games, turning off hands-free Alexa and other background tasks when playing.īattery life is very good. That’s twice the amount of the previous-generation machine, which significantly improves multitasking. It has the same processor as the regular Fire HD 10, but with 1GB more of RAM for a total of 4GB. The Fire tablets are typically fast enough, but won’t beat more expensive rivals for raw performance. This small tablet is MADE for this.All the ports and buttons are in the right side of the tablet, while the microSD card slot for adding more storage space is in the bottom edge. Thats the best part, the tablets will will direct playing H.265 all day long and response is snappy and apps open quicker than expected for such a cheaply priced tablet at 69.99 I am really impressed and the sound.yes the sound comes from two decently sized speakers. ![]() I must say that the google play services works perfectly and Emby works flawlessly on the fire tablet with direct play HEVC videos from my server. All the versions are listed and this is the guide to follow if anyone wants to install Emby on their fire tablet. I used a computer to download these files and uploaded them to nextcloud but you could use a small Micro SD card to make it easier to accomplish this. The guide I found here worked perfectly and gave me the information I needed to install it on a Generation 10 Fire HD 8 tablet. I found your manual installation of Emby Page and followed that at first but the guide is quite brief and doesn't specify the exact versions as per each different generation of Fire HD tablet. The resolution is a bummer, but the little ones don't complain. Neither require transcoding for 8bit HEVC or PGS subs. They're slower than shit for the UI (that's a lie, the 7" was worse) but once they get playing something they work perfectly. These things are a god damn life saver for road trips. I have two of the prior version for my daughters. I don't have any 10-bit HEVC because there's no reason to use it outside of some edge cases related to cleaning up old anime through wonky filters. They direct play both HEVC 8-bit 1080p files, and PGS subs.Ĭorrect. I have two Fire 8 tablets for my daughters. ![]() HE AAC v1, HE AAC v2, AAC ELD, OPUS, MIDI, Vorbis however it supports HEVC 1080P.ĭ(HW) Main Profile, L4.1 Specifications - Fire HD 8 (2020, 10th Gen)ĭ (HW) Constrained Baseline, Main Profile, High profile, L4.2 E (HW)ĭ(HW) Main Profile, L4.1 (HW) Main Profile (HW) Advanced Simple Simple (HW) because its still changing the resolution. What do you think? They should play direct? based on these findings? I am not fully convinced. I don't want any transcoding done for viewing purposes. I have dual graphics cards but they are fancy and I don't like to use them except for encoding for which they are set to automatically tackle any new media I add to my library. I think my chances are good that they direct play. I found some forum posts but I am not sure whether I have 10 bit or 8 bit videos how do you tell? When I encode with tdarr which I do everything I know 10 bit is selected "no". The tablets are now on sale $69.99 and Its so cheap I ordered 2. They in theory should direct play H.265 even though the resolution of the small 8 HD tablet is 1200 x 800. I think I found the answer but I won't know for sure until the Fire HD 8 tablets arrive.
