Beta version v6.3.98 for Z9X release

trailers not working !!!!!!!!

 

But Where does it state trailers have been fixed ?
in changelog ?

 

???????

 

Trailers is a known problem
And were waiting on a firmware fix to address this .

one has not been announced yet .

 

Trailers worked somewhat in .92. Nothing in .96.

 

Read this message from @Markswift2003

They can't fix it so disable it.

 

Odd on my Older Z10 it still works ………
Last time i used it.

 

On 6.3 92 it also (kind of) worked.
But on 6.3.98 it does not seem to work at all.

I can't test because i don' t have a Z9X

 

Dune have a way … the are working there..
I am sure Zidoo can find a way to…they have to try more!

 

Make it a priority as many like this feature id say including me .

 

Good that it is confirmed.

 

PGS subtitles in some blu-ray movies with interactive menus do not work. What about the HDMI IN record function? There has been no resolve right from the beginning , looks like as if the function does not exist at all in the player thus totally overlooked, really sad to see such step motherly treatment to such a handy function.

 

Just to be clear, are you saying using the USB stick to revert the firmware to a previous state, or just the menu option of reset?

 

For me in Z9x, it didn’t work in last fws including .92!!

 

No, just factory reset from Settings/Other/Recovery and reset/Restore Factory Settings

 

I don't use any third party media players. I only use G as I do have few other types of apps I use.

 

Hdmi CEC working perfect now, including power on/off and volume control via Denon amp to LG OLED. Thanks.

 

So much thankful for your presence here.

 

I will not be providing a write-up as I want about 6 hours of my life back from this exercise in obsession...but today I managed to accomplish the following:

Set up Radarr as a docker and amtd ( automatic movie trailer download) docker and then took all my media files which still had pre-media info scraping tags on them such as Star Wars (1977)(4K)(HDR)(TrueHD Atmos 7.1) and cleaned them up. Thus toggling out the trailers that had downloaded which were complete unusable file name wise. Used advanced renamer to steal the Directory name for the trailer, and them trimmed off all the tags. for the movie files. The script scrapes for trailers every hour if something new is added to my media shares. Renamed about 1400 trailers in about 6 minutes. Radarr does a good job pulling artwork as well and thumbs etc.

What I ended up with is working trailers again that play flawlessly locally after 3 seconds , on autoplay. I am sure next week Zidoo will fix the streaming trailers but I was able to pull the best quality ones from youtube, hd-trailers.net and i think apple trailers as well but i am not sure. It downloads them very quickly through the docker from what i saw on terminal. It uses the movie database from Radarr to get its que list. Going forward I can just rename them as I go, and will not have to do renaming batches but I am pleased to report, Local Trailers is amazing...Just took a little longer than I wanted. The only downside is I have to use media info when browsing from web to see what audio and video formats are present since I stripped all the fully functioning tags.

A small warning. Radarr does NOT like bdmv, iso and it doesnt handle duplicates too well, such as 3D/ 4K isos . It causes a conflict and you can either have one or the other in the database. I mainly am using it for trailers function. NOT what most use radarr for. which is agreggating usenet, bittorrent links as well. I only used it to collect trailers, which functioned well.

Trailers were sorely missed and now they are back baby! I am sure there are pay solutions that download trailers as well from tiny media manager etc, but I wanted to do it open source.

 

Nice of you to say that - it's much appreciated.
