    APP ANDROID and IOS for NAS options on X10

    Dear friends, is you really think on improve the spirit of x10, please, think on include a APP_X10 to do:
    a) Control some basic functions. Maybe this app should be a virtual remote control.
    b) DS_Video, DS_audio, DS_photo, DS_file and DS_cloud like synology NAS app.

    Best regards

    Hello,

    - Is a scalable zoom available? For example, my 8-year old TVIX 6500 player with Sigma chipset is able to zoom in and out in steps.
    - Does the VFD Display support alphabetic characters and symbols? Is it planned for future firmwares? I'd like to see file names on the display, like my old TVIX player. Thay way you can use the player as an audio player without TV.
    - Is the user interface translated to spanish? If not, are there plans to do it?

    Also remaining time counter is important. Please add it to firmware in future versions. I'm a very potential buyer of this device.

    Thanks and regards

    I receive it today and it have the same bug as X9S, i can't format a sdcard as internal storage. I think it's the same firmware as X9S. I put in a 2T HDD and it'snt make a noise only hear HDD.

    X10 is almost identical to the X9-S..will continue to have same firmware issues as the X9-s..don't get burned 2X...don't get fooled again by the "new" hype..

    It is the same as the x9s, seen some pictures on internet, not sure if all are the same, but the one i seen had written on the board " x9s v1.2 ", only the case is different. and the front panel

    so if you bought the X9s you are screwed, because X9s needs to be more stable before another unit. No THANKS

    Hi, just before I consider buying one can anyone let me know a couple of things?

    1) I think it has a picture-in-picture mode. Is that one 4K-input in an App? Or one HD-input in an App? Or one App in another App? Or one movie file in another App?

    2) I have read it plays Bluray files. I guess this is only if they are on a USB HD. I have an external USB bluray drive. It doesn't connect to the X6 Pro. Will the X10 connect it and play Blu-ray discs? If not, is the SATA hard drive bay compatible with Blu-ray drives?

    3) how noisy is the fan?

    Thanks, eerke

    The Zidoo X10 came to me on Friday, the hardware feels solid, but unfortunately the firmware does not.

    First of all, the internal reproducer does not find the correct subtitles for the movies on the disc. I do not find any ....
    Secondly, the built-in XBMC based on Kodi jarvis 16.1 is unfortunately "heavy" and what's worse with plugs, for example? Exodus you are not able to burn anything to an internal disk, you will not do "backup" settings of this porpost Kodi nothing will ruin the internal disk.
    The paths in the Exodus settings to the disk given correctly similarly with the Backup program is not able to save anything. (Interestingly, the same problem I had in the Zappiti One4K which is a very similar technical design to the X10).
    - What is interesting after installing Kodi 17 disk problems in Exodus and no coding itself. (Unlike XBMC Zidoo)
    - covers are searched so in the inside program to the library eg? To the new well-known series, Taboo has me covered with a cover of the movie "porno" :)

    On the plus side good image quality I did not find any "correction" image so image is raw from takeigo file that is available and of such quality.
    I have the impression that the image is better than np? From Himmedia q10pro. (I'm testing the Panasonic DX900 TV

    Not much time yet, I have to continue to tread (I have the impression that the Wifi card is worse than the Himmedi card).
    First of all, the lack of ability to download subtitles in my native language to the internal player is a minor but serious mistake for me.

    I still do not know how to with the firmware for this X10 because there is not even here in the official forum of such information. The internal firmware is numbered 1.3. I do not know if the software will be compatible with the X9S version?

    I will continue to test ...

    Now it's time for Bluray ...

    @ma_ko
    What's your mother language which you set in box please. And when you said subtitles can't be found online, did you mean zidoo player or ZDMC?
    And please try to avoid using acronym, such as "np", people here are all from different cultures,we'd better use simple and clear words to express.

    My language is Polish. Yes, it is not possible to set the language in the Zidoo player.

    ZDMC I do not use, it works very slowly, in addition I can not configure it under my hard drive. (I wrote mins about the Exodus plugin problems with saving, backup, etc)

    But I have no problems with the configuration of Kodi 17. This is all OK (so shortly checked)

    Approx. I accidentally interrupted my "example" (np) I would try to write without errors.

    Exodus is a pirate addon, There will be no official support for it, from kodi or from anywhere for that matter.
    That being said, your problem is with writing permissions, that can be fixed multiple ways. I'm using the root + xposed framework + sdcard addon that gives writing permission on external devices. ( this is a workaround, not a official fix ), guide can be found on the russian 4pda forum if you are willing to dig a little

    Hello ,
    I own a zidoo x10 for a couple days, and I have noticed a problem, I have set hdmi output in auto mode and when playing a 4k hdr video (the lg chess demo) the zidoo is seting the resolution in 1080 p instead of 4k, and then the image is all pink !!
    If I set the hdmi output manually in 4k the the videao is playing fine. m'I missing something in the setting ?
    Thanks for your help.

    Spirit? I have test with Bluray movies, it have the menu navigation but so slow to open it. I'm using Egreat A5 and it's faster to open Bluray navigation than X10. Can not control speed of FAN. When will you release new firmware for X10, I see the current version is 1.3

    It's possible that your TVset is using a nonstandard EDID signal which lead to mismatch.

    My tv is an hisense 55m7000 hdmi 2.0a and hdr, and I have a marantz sr 7010 hdmi2.0a.
    The résolution is not set by the tv but by the media itself ?

    Another thing, Is there a way to make visible the X10 with a NetBIOS name on the network.
    Because I can access to it via the ip Adress, but it would be more convinient with a NetBIOS name.

    The resolution is set by the player and the refresh rate by the media itself (if enabled)

    See http://forum.zidoo.tv/index.php?threads/nas-access.4600/ for network access by name.

    The fan does not seem to support speed control it is just on/off. Maybe auto/smart/hdd "=following the detection of a HDD being inserted/ejected" can be added?

    OKAY. Maybe Exodus is a pirate, it's interesting that we're distracted by the performance of the Chinese device (such a joke). And you want me to understand that now the Chinese manufacturer is on the "copyright protection guard?") I can not configure under the ZDMC hard drive ?? Ok.to great because some competitive Himmedia q10pro or Egreat such problems do not have ...

    And by the way, the problem came out accidentally, I wanted to have access to my library of films, among other things, by this plug-in to be able to watch my subtitles in my "language" ...

    And what about the subtitles under my (my language) Zidoo player? Are there any restrictions?

    And another question. Do I have the option to set "wrapper" also works on a separately installed KODI version? Is this option only on ZBMC...

    Hello, trying to fix the wrong auto resolution, I ve made some more testing, it's seem that the only way I can have both 1080 p and 2160p working without either a pink screen or some cut in the video and sound, is to set the resolution to 3840 60 hz and the color mode to rgb 444. If I let the color mode in auto the hdr demo are pink, and if i let the resolution on auto the 4k demo are played in 1080p.

    What is the difference between the rgb 4.2.2 and 4.4.4 ?

    Thanks to all the person that have anwsered me. This box seems very promissing. ANother question is there a setting to set the subtitle to off by default ?
