    Thanks but I am still on Version 2.2.61 (best so far for me)

    1 Question.
    Does the front panel RED DOT light turned off when unit is POWER OFF like in 2.2.61?

    Thanks

    Anyone tested this already? I am very afraid of updating.

    Initial quick test is very promising!

    Seamless branching - fixed (EDIT - not fixed unfortunately but improved. Still got a lock up in Thor Ragnarok UHD)
    Forced subs in ISO\BDMV - added and works
    In HT2 - now ability to filter between just TV or Movies.

    So far I'm a happy bunny with this one!

    Only thing (for me) not improved is that I have a few blurays that will not play - these are still unplayable.

    How can we enable Forced subs in ISO\BDMV?

    All of the features are secondary to me apart from seamless branching. I will wait and monitor this thread for updates on the subject. Please who ever you are if you have any updates about seamless branching let us know. If someone can check the full UHD ISO Black Hawk Down movie that would be the best test for me.

    In quick setting I have the following set and forced subs worked for in the movie A Quiet Place (ISO) when played from bluray menu - forced subs used when sign language used.

    Playback > Default language. Her I have Default track as English, Default subtitle as Off and Default download as Englsi
    Playback > Forced subtitle - this is set as Follow current audio track.

    Unfortunately it has been improved but not fixed.

    I tested:

    Thor Ragnarok UHD which has about 5 M2TS files. Last firmware it would stick and the first and last and glitch at the others. Now all are fine except the last where it still sticks.
    The Great Gatsby UHD has several M2TS files and last firmware there were noticeable glitches between joins. I have tried several and most were fine but I noticed one with a small glitch

    So it remains a work in progress:(

    To conclude, 2.2.61 is still the most stable when it comes to seamless branching, do you agree?

    Don't know as a long time since I had that version. However never had a movie actually freeze at a join on that version but also didn't have Thor Ragnarok to test at that time.

    No it is ON in standby as it should be. I think this is in fact the best FW thus far.
    Seamless branchings seems to be back at the 2.2.61 level. A new introduced problem I had with 2.2.91 is solved again too.

    Why should it be?

    Be nice to have the option to turn ON/OFF
    as the light is so BRIGHT when in standby.

    Perhaps better support for Seamless branchings issue?

    Ha ha :)

    Just stating it is a guinean Zidoo release and safe to be installed would help. This for those not wanting to wait for a final release and don't mind installing a beta. ;)

    I guess OTA should be "Over-the-Air" and not via USB.

    Appreciate if Zidoo Team pushes whatever official to the device itself. It did appear that way for V2.2.82
