datawebotDUNE HD media player data: model specs, HDR formats and firmware
Compare DUNE HD models by hardware, video decoding, HDR output, audio, OS certification, firmware, package revisions and seller-scoped warranty.
Map player, accessory and television listings separately
The Products collection reopened October 4, 2026 mixes media players, remote-only products and QLED television listings. Its sold-out and coming-soon labels are dated storefront states, not a model lifecycle taxonomy. The support Model List separately marks media-player models current or discontinued; keep model class, support lifecycle, shop state and firmware record distinct.

| Record group | Fields to keep together | Source distinction |
|---|---|---|
| Media player | Exact model name, player class and model-page URL | Do not infer codec, storage or certification details from a family name. |
| Remote or accessory | Current collection examples include BT AirMouse Remote R3, BT Backlit R4, Premium IR Remote and Google BT Homatics Big Remote; retain exact accessory name and compatibility statement. | Keep standalone accessory identity and supported model separate from a bundled remote or player configuration. |
| Television listing | Model and product class | Do not mix television fields into a media-player specification. |
| Model lifecycle | Current or discontinued label plus observation date | On the Model List reviewed October 4, Max 8K and Homatics Box R 4K Plus appear under Current. Keep the source lifecycle label separate from store availability. |
| Store and firmware state | On October 4, the shop labels Pro One 8K Plus sold out; the Model List places it under Discontinued, while the Firmware index includes it among models with updates planned. | Preserve these as separate source states; a planned-update listing is not a downloadable firmware release or proof of sale availability. |
Compare hardware at the exact model level
The Homatics Box R 4K Plus and Max 8K product pages were rechecked October 4, 2026. They illustrate different product roles: a certified hybrid streaming/local-media device and a full-size player described for local HDD/NAS use. Keep each processor, memory, storage, network and port value attached to the exact model page.

| Model and stated role | Processor and memory | Storage, network, ports, video output and power |

Separate decoding, output, Dolby Vision and audio paths
The two product pages rechecked October 4, 2026 list codec decoders, video output modes, HDR formats, Dolby Vision file profiles/containers, audio decoding and bitstream paths separately. DUNE HD says some features may require an update and playback support can depend on application, media encoding, configuration and connected equipment; those labels do not guarantee arbitrary interoperability.

| Media field | Homatics Box R 4K Plus | Max 8K |
|---|---|---|
| Video decoding | AV1, VP9 Profile 2, HEVC/H.265, AVC/H.264, VC1, MPEG4, MPEG2 and MPEG1. | AV1, VP9 Profile 2, HEVC/H.265, AVC/H.264, VC1, MPEG4, MPEG2 and MPEG1; 8K decoding listed up to 8Kp60 HDR. |
| Video file containers | MKV, MPEG-TS, MPEG-PS, M2TS, VOB, AVI, MOV, MP4, QT, ASF, WMV, ISO and movie-folder structures. | MKV, MPEG-TS, MPEG-PS, M2TS, VOB, AVI, MOV, MP4, QT, ASF, WMV, ISO and movie-folder structures. |
| HDR and Dolby Vision file support | HDMI output is listed up to 4Kp60 HDR/HDR10+/Dolby Vision. Media Center playback lists Dolby Vision Profiles 5, 7 (MEL/FEL) and 8, including ISO, movie folder, MKV, MP4 and M2TS containers. | HDR formats listed: Dolby Vision, HDR10+, HDR10 and HLG. Dolby Vision playback lists Profiles 5, 7 (MEL/FEL) and 8, with ISO, movie folder, MKV, MP4 and M2TS containers; output modes are separately listed as LLDV and standard DV. |
| Video output ceiling | HDMI 2.1 up to 4Kp60 HDR/HDR10+/Dolby Vision; upscaling listed up to 4K. | 8K decode and output listed up to 8Kp60 HDR; HDMI 2.1a is listed up to 4Kp60 Dolby Vision. 4Kp120 is labeled experimental. |
| Audio decoding | Media Center lists decoding of Dolby/DTS tracks to HDMI as multichannel PCM up to 7.1; the product page separately summarizes Media Center playback up to Dolby TrueHD with Atmos and DTS:X. | Dolby/DTS multichannel decoding is listed up to 7.1, including Dolby TrueHD Atmos and DTS:X; other audio decoding formats are listed separately on the model page. |
| Audio bitstream and firmware dependency | The model page lists Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus (including Atmos), Dolby TrueHD (including Atmos) and DTS bitstream output; its page says the latest Android 14 firmware expands bitstream output up to TrueHD Atmos and DTS:X. Dolby MAT output is listed when the receiver supports it. | The model page lists Dolby/DTS bitstream passthrough up to Dolby TrueHD Atmos and DTS:X. Keep this separate from its multichannel decode field. |
| Physical audio connections | HDMI and optical S/PDIF are listed; retain the model page's output label rather than inferring a receiver configuration. | 2×RCA stereo, optical and coaxial S/PDIF, Hi-Fi coaxial S/PDIF, Hi-Fi I2S-E and a USB port optimized for an external USB DAC are listed. |
Keep operating system, certification and service support distinct
The model pages and Android Apps and Streaming guidance rechecked October 4, 2026 distinguish Android, Android TV/Netflix certification, Widevine and each model’s service statements. The Homatics page says service availability depends on region and each service’s policies; the Max 8K page says Android apps and streaming are non-primary without guaranteed compatibility.

| Model | OS, certification and DRM | Service-support statement |
|---|---|---|
| Homatics Box R 4K Plus | Android TV 11/14 plus Linux-based Dune HD OS via app; Netflix certification: Yes; Google Android TV certification: Yes; Widevine L1. | The product page names Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, Apple TV+, HBO Max and YouTube; it says availability depends on region and each service's policies. |
| Max 8K | Linux-based Dune HD OS plus Android 11; Android apps are listed as 32-bit; Google Android TV certification: No; Netflix certification: No; Widevine L1. | DUNE HD describes Android apps and streaming as non-primary with no guaranteed compatibility, and states no full/official Netflix or Netflix 4K support. Its app guidance describes non-ATV models as focused on HDD/NAS playback. |
Track firmware and Media Center app versions independently
Support-model status, a firmware plan, downloadable firmware and the Media Center app version are separate observations. Save the exact model, software component, version, release channel, displayed date, download reference and changelog only when the corresponding support page supplies them.
Scroll to compare →
| Record | Source-specific evidence | How to keep it distinct |
|---|---|---|
| Support lifecycle and update plan | The Model List labels models current or discontinued. The Firmware index lists models for which updates are planned and has separate notes for legacy Sigma Designs platforms. | Neither list alone proves that a specific firmware file is currently available. |
| Max 8K firmware | The Max 8K firmware page rechecked October 4, 2026 still labels version 250815_1012_r22 “the latest stable version” and links a .dff file and changelog. | Record this as a page observation checked October 4, 2026, not as a posted firmware publication date; recheck before treating it as current later. |
| Homatics firmware versus app | The Homatics update page describes separate Dune HD Media Center app and device-firmware update streams. It says app versions may be updated more frequently; firmware passes through Google/Netflix certification and cannot be rolled back to an older version. | Do not record an app version as device firmware or interpret a firmware-planning note as a promised release. |
| Media Center app version index | The app index rechecked October 4, 2026 lists 1000-260921_1823_r24 as beta and 1000-260526_1156_r24 as stable. | Keep channel and October 4 observation date beside each version; these are app builds, not device firmware. |
Preserve batch, remote and package details by model
The product pages rechecked October 4, 2026 show that batch notes, remote controls, power cords and included parts are model-specific. Use the Homatics May 2023-and-later revision note and the Max 8K package list only at their exact listing scope.
Scroll to compare →
| Model and evidence scope | Revision or included contents | Capture boundary |
|---|---|---|
| Homatics Box R 4K Plus — product-page batch note | May 2023 and later batches ship with a larger remote adding 0–9, color, INFO and SUBTITLES buttons; the analog A/V connector was removed and a bottom expansion port was added. The older batch had a small remote and a 3.5 mm composite-video/stereo-audio connector. | Do not assume the remote or connector set without a batch-specific observation. |
| Homatics Box R 4K Plus — product-page package list | The page lists one player, one Bluetooth remote, two AAA batteries, one 12 V 1.5 A supply, one HDMI cable and a quick installation guide. | Keep package contents tied to this product page and observed listing. |
| Max 8K — product-page package list | The page lists the player, two Wi-Fi antennas, Bluetooth remote, two AAA batteries, EU/US/UK/AU power cords, 8K Ultra High Speed HDMI cable, IR extender, manual, two 19-inch rack brackets and screws. | Power-plug types and bundled accessories are Max 8K listing fields, not catalog-wide promises. |
| Market and reseller context | The official Where to Buy page points users to regional dealers. | Keep seller, region, currency and product URL alongside any separately captured offer observation; do not transfer direct-store policy to a reseller. |
Scope direct-store warranty and keep website terms unverified
The Returns and Refunds policy rechecked October 4, 2026 (extract marked crawled two days earlier) states a one-year warranty for products purchased at dune-hd.com and says only direct-store purchases can be returned; products from other retailers follow their respective policies. The reviewed shop footer exposed no Terms link, and direct Terms and robots requests remained unavailable, so this page makes no website-access or permission statement.
Scroll to compare →
| Policy source | Observed wording or check result | Keep in scope |
|---|---|---|
| dune-hd.com direct purchase | One-year warranty term stated by the official policy; the same page describes its return eligibility and process. | Other sellers, marketplaces, regions or product-specific warranty coverage not named in this statement. |
| Other retailer or dealer | Return and refund handling follows that retailer's respective policy, according to DUNE HD's page. | The direct-store one-year term or direct-store return eligibility. |
| Website Terms and robots check, October 4, 2026 | The direct Terms routes and www/non-www robots requests did not load. The accessible Firmware Software License concerns firmware/software, not website collection terms. | Do not infer a crawler rule, permission, prohibition or workaround from unavailable pages or the firmware license. |
