(edit: which actually contradicts seats 5 A/B existing on the 24J config)

Thanks for the posts and the introduction of the dashboard, really very useful and appreciated.
I would clarify that the seats 12D, 20D and 32D (43 row) or 12D, 27D, and 39D (50 row) do not have an IFE box in front of them. The seats immediately in front are very slightly misaligned, there is a 'handle' in front of your face and there is a risk of the trolley / other passengers brushing your legs if you stretch out, but I found the extra legroom very comfy.
I also note that in the exit rows, seat C (and I presume seat G also) also risks interaction with the trolley / other passengers, because the passageway at the galley / toilets is not aligned with the aisle so the trolley has to manoeuvre around your legs. But there is a lot of room there.
I hope these photos show what I mean.

Can anyone confirm which is correct?

Hi guys, we will be flying B777 in Y, and I'm curious about some specific seats. It seems our B777 will be "V1" (3-4-3, like this on SeatGuru), and I wonder how good/bad are twin seats at Row 17. SeatGuru says those seats have limited recline, and there's IFE box under the seat in front. Maybe someone has real-life experience with those seats, maybe some pics? Should we stick with those seats, or choose another (lets say, Row 16)?

looking to book DOH-IAD in J for Feb 2019. currently showing old 777 layout (it currently is showing Qsuites thru October)...i imagine its likely this will change at some point to Qsuites beyond october...
As far as seat selection, if I select seats according to the current seat map, will i retain those same row/seat assignments if/when they swap the Qsuites aircraft?

Is this a Qsuites 777ER layout?
I am flying DOH-FRA in a 777ER and manage my booking won't let me select a seat. Looking at the seat map in MMB (which I can't interact with) is this a Qsuites layout and as a solo traveller have they locked me out of seat selection until T-24 or something?
Thanks
