I've only had my DMS for a few days now and in all honesty I'm impressed that it plays everything that I have thrown at it and the quality of it is A+.
After upgrading to 1013 and downgrading the back to 1010 I found that the 1013 is a better firmware apart from the Cloud based storage. (I was having trouble connecting to my DMS basically thanks to Microsoft and an OS update) but that's a different story that I found a fix for.
So could the firmware not be the same or similar to 1013 but with an option to use either the Cloud or locally stored information or maybe even use both so you have a backup of some kind?
The problems I had with 1010 is that I didn't have any sound for a lets say Blade Runner 2049 4K for example, unless I went into the settings of the DMS and unticked the TrueHD tick box. And then I would only get DTS5.1 but when set to TrueHD it would have no sound and show up as PCM on the amplifier.
On 1013 I had sound with it ticked but still only PCM as apparently my amplifier requires Bitstream to be able to decode it correctly, but since downgrading back to 1010 I now have sound with it still ticked but only at PCM and not TrueHD. Other titles of ATMOS only soundtracks show up as TrueHD and play perfectly.
Also with 1013 I have more options enabled for my 4K Panasonic TV......so it's definitely a better firmware apart from the cloud.
So fingers crossed you could add the feature of both or either ways to store the information in the future firmware.
