    20181028_193845.jpg I just replaced the stock feets with more solid ones. It seems, this way Z10 looks better. New feets provide better grip with surface.

    Yes, probably z10 is the first Zidoo player, which goes right with home hi-fi.

    Can Zidoo Team add a start up logo simular to this :) ?

    Putting such logo probably kills their simplified duocolor ui. It is just like a colorful packaging with something gray inside. Logo must complement the ui style. All the visuals should be reconsidered.

    При воспроизведении видео через HDMI на выходе тюльпанов есть звук L+R для подачи на стереоусилитель или там звук появляется только при использовании видеовыхода "тюльпан"?

    Да, звук есть без подключения композитного видео (желтый выход). Но при этом через hdmi звук есть только в режиме 2 ch (или auto). При выборе raw, звука на hdmi нет, идет только на усилитель.

    Yes, he asked a question about 2ch analog output. He wanted to know does it work without connecting composite video output. Yes, it does work, but HDMI in such case limited to 2ch audio - RAW setting provide no sound on the hdmi connected device.

    Are you finding the picture Quality any different ?
    Any stuttering noticed ?

    and does it look better in the flesh than the x10 unit ?

    So far, I played only one bdiso - music video and one lossless flac image. Video is not smooth as expected, there are auto frame rate issues. Playing audio I noticed three to five sound delays (in about 1 sec) per album when playing from hdd (wd av). At a glance, the overall performance reminds me x9s before 2.0.34.

    It seems the overal pq remains the same.

    I do not have x10 unit to compare both devices, but z10 looks and feels more hi-fi-ish than x9s. But I much prefer design of x9s than z9.

    For me PQ is very similar but upscaling and downscaling of HDR is more advanced and visually better (colors).

    About pq. Almost perfect video quality (full hd only) I found on the popcorn a-410 with sigma vxp (but I sold that device because popcorn provides alot of bugs in firmware and almost none firmware updates). It worked perfect with any video material including natively interlaced sources. Realtek soc is not capable to deliver such performance. Looks like it can smoothly decode only progressive video sources such as 24p.

    I only played one 1080p movie. I have one hdr movie in the queue. It would be nice to have correct hdr, because I played all the uhd conents directly on my tv, because x9s hdr colours was too dark.

    Спасибо за ответ! Пока буду думать стоит ли опять покупать данный плеер Z10. Ждал его по предзаказу почти месяц и сразу купил на второй день после получения на склад. Он у меня пробыл ровно один день и его пришлось вернуть в магазин, по причине (я так думаю) того что не было установлено Гугл Плей Маркет и плеер при подключении к интернет начал выдавать ошибки по различным приложениям и по кабелю и по вай-фай. Сбросы ничего не давали. Плеер уходил в постоянную перезагрузку, даже видео этого действа записал.
    Но самое интересное в том что в магазине его при мне подключили и он сразу нормально начал работать...
    Как быть не знаю теперь.

    Я просто жду когда выйдет нормальная прошивка, вкл. Google play. Ничего даже не настраивал - нет смысла, все равно придется делать сброс настроек.
