ZIDOO - Z10 PRO - Z9X - Z1000 PRO - UHD 3000 - NEO A - NEO S - NEO X - Dolby Vision - Owners Thread

Power nap complete,

Audio problem solved by unplugging at the mains and rebooting. Now playing nice.

Started rematching 3 series of Narcos after only 1 episode scraped. Quickly found the way to batch rematch - making progress.

Liking so far šŸ˜

Excuse my noobness, how do I get YouTube on the new box ?

Player not showing in Windows .... Any idea how I can solve this, I'm running latest firmware on the Zidoo

Thanks
I am on firmware V6.0.35 I think it may be Beta so it may have to be installed via USB then on the Zidoo app on my phone i switched on DLNA DMR and the unit shows up on my network.
 
Hi

I have taken out the hard drive from Xbox one X as it has died on me and have connected to Zidoo using the sata cable supplied to copy over game data to HD. I can hear the drive turn on but I am not able to see it in the media centre. Anyone know how to make the drive visible?

Thanks
 
How are the picture and sound quality on this players vs the Nvidia Shield 2019, worth the upgrade?

Picture seems to have a bump in Pic Quality
sound well it just passes Audio through to your Receiver / sound system so really down to your system etc .

Nvidia well moved away from that years ago .

Thank you. I am satisfied with the 2019 version but it the Zidoo are better then I maybe should be moving away too.

What hdd do people use? Mostly WD red?
 
Woohoo! Just came across this post thanks @DELUCAS ! :clap:
Time to upgrade from my beloved X9S it looks like!
Does it really support playback even of ISO's in DV? Or only streaming maybe?

As its new out still working on firmware updates to sort out gremlins but getting positive response in its early release stage .
 
The front display has died on my Z9X. I've tried a couple of reboots to no avail. Does anyone know of anything I can try to fix it?
Sorted! For some reason the option to turn the display off self selected. I've re-enabled it and all is well

New Model to add to the Collection
 
I'm keeping my Z1000 Pro as it ticks most of my my boxes too. As this new (HiFi ?) model receives upgrades, I'm hoping mine will too. Just want multichannel Flac and DSD, that I don't get with my Egreat A11. All the new Zidoos' are WIP at the moment.
 
Does anyone know which is the max size that the internal HDD of the Z10 Pro can "see". Can-it see for example an HDD of 6TB?
 
I'm using a 10tb hdd but I've read somewhere on the Zidoo forums, that the max size = 16tb
 
Hi Guys. I just bought a new Zidoo Z10 Pro. Im about to buy an extra internal hdd to it. Probably a 10 terrabyte or more. Im only wondering if i have the internal hdd, should i do something (any formatting) before putting into the player or is it plug and play ? Will the player see the hdd automatically??

Yes Format it to Ntfs or using a pc etc
 
Just a quickie folks,

1. I usually rip my movies to mkv so know i have no probs playing these files, for Blu-ray concerts, i prefer to keep the full disc structure, so, iso format works correctly right ? but what about when ripped to BDMV files (like all my concerts are ripped now), do i have to use the AVCHD folder hack and use BDMV Modifier 2.0 like i did with my Oppo Blu-ray player or will these be played correctly just in a folder as BDMV.

2. I don't seem to have the YouTube app on my Z1000 PRO, is this something i can expect with the next firmware update ?

Many thanks.

New software beta update coming very soon people . šŸ˜Ž
 
Where we getting beta software from ?

Could someone please help, in settings, audio, SPDIF, when selecting RAW, there is a 'Tip' when selecting the RAW output, turn on the audio degradation switch at the same time.

what is this and where do i find it ?

as i use the coaxial output into a standalone Dac (just for 2 ch stereo content) and switching between Raw & LPCM 2 Channel makes no difference to the audio quality, and to be honest, feeling a bit underwhelmed compared to the results using my Oppo 103 EU coaxial output into my standalone Dac.

Am i missing something here ?

thanks.

Hi Just received my Z9X and was wondering if someone could help me.

Trying to get DV to work but can't seem to.
I have an LG Oled 65EP and my Z9X is running though an Anthem MRX-1120.
Settings are as follows
Frame Rate Switch off
Display Auto (3840x2160P@60Hz)
Color settings 4K50-60Hz priority YUV420 10bit
4K-23-30Hz Priority YUV 444 10 bit
Non 4K Priority YUV 444 8 bit
HDMI Color Region 16-235
HDR Auto (when I try Dolby Vision VS10 Engine screen menu goes weird color, plays audio no picture, boots back to menu with setting etc. audio still playing)
I'm trying play UHD full rips but only get HDR no DV showing on TV

If I rip UHD to MKV with DV would that give me DV?

Trying to work my way through the settings but can't seem to get anything to work.
Would appreciate any guidance. I don't mind reripping some of the full rips to a different format if that helps.
 
Do these players have any features to support a 2:35 scope screen setup, which uses PJ zoom.
eg
movie wall tiles displayed in 2.35:1 format rather than 16:9
OSD displayed within 235 area, not within black bars
