Realtek 1296: http://www.cnx-software.com/2017/06...ethernet-dual-sata-hdmi-2-0-input-and-output/ Zidoo X20 (+unknown front) https://truyenhinhlegia.vn/zidoo-x20/ I am pretty convinced there are 2 new models coming. Be sure about it that it is for real. But looking carefully you will see that the Front and Back don't match in size and are of different models. Specs and Back are for X20 but the Front is clearly not: Seems to be based on Realtek RTD1296 chipset, an upgraded version of the RTD1295 used in X10. RTD1296 has similar capabilities to RTD1295 but more peripheral ports including 2 x SATA. Specifications: ARM Quad core A53 + 4G DDR4 + 32G eMMC + Gigabit Ethernet +802.11AC MIMO 2T2R 867Mbps + SATA 3.0*2（HDD BAY*2） + USB 3.0 *1 + TYPE-C*1 + USB 2.0*2 + RS232 + IR output + IR input + SPDIF +Coaxial + ESS 9038 DAC + XLR Audio output + HDMI 2.0a output*2 (Video and Audio separation output)+ HDMI IN 2.0. Support full BD menu function, Support 4K UHD, Support frame auto switch (23.976, 59.94 etc.), Support HDR10, Media center function (SAMBA + NFS + poster wall) I am pretty convinced it is a real Zidoo front but apparently of yet another reduced width player with a single HDD bay and most likely without the advanced Audio (ESS 9038 DAC + XLR Audio output). I am wondering if this was done on purpose as a teaser or it was accidental? The Front looks like an intermediate (X11/X15 model ?) between X10 and X20 being a direct competitor for Egreat A10/A11 and Himedia 1000 models. That would also make a lot more marketing sense to me. The X20 is a (probably very expensive) top model for a relative small market. I expect it to inherit the other advanced RTD1296 features from X20. As I never got my X10 I may be a potential customer for this model myself. I do in fact expect both models to be launched at the same moment (huh mentioned is September? Knowing Zidoo plannings that could be November or December).
Wait and see. It simply does not make sense for me to develop a new RTD1296 based SOC just to sell the X20, which would mean a huge target market jump. These won't exactly be selling like hotcakes.
The most important part is that RTD1296 will use the same SDK as RTD1295, so firmware development for X8/X9S/X10 won't be affected.
Its real and coming in september Rear is real but front i doubt it . There all coming out with it seems Hi End media players now A gap in the market with higher prices to be had .
Hello Delucas, it's the brand Dune that offered the same model as zidoo Zidoo X9S Dune HD Pro 4K: Realtek RTD1295 2GB RAM 16 GB internal flash MRSP of 199$ Availability: Dec/2017 - Jan/2018 Official page: http://dune-hd.com/eng/products/full_hd_media_players/57 zidoo X20 pro Dune HD Pro 4K Ultra: Realtek RTD1296 4GB RAM 32 GB internal flash ESS SABRE DAC (ES9038PRO) XLR out 2x 3.5HDD MRSP of 799$ Availability: Jan/2017 - Feb/2018 (typo: obviously it should be Jan/2018) Official page: http://dune-hd.com/eng/products/full_hd_media_players/58 it's the same with zappiti, they are all the same devices, the difference will be with the selling price as for Zidoo VS zappiti see you
Yes i gathered that ive been posting on other forum about it etc And theres a Dune X9s clone also by the looks of it .
yes and they use the old X9 model case, the difference is the color, black for the Dune. the availability of the Dune HD pro 4k ultra would be in January or February, i guess it will be the same for the Zidoo x20 pro...
Will Zappiti follow suit with the same X20 pro clone then ? As they have one simular allready of sorts .
surely the same machine with different interface depending on the brand and also a difference in price, the zidoo should be the cheapest I hope...
I want a Zidoo X10s with two hdmi out puts one for amp duties Dolby Vision And satellite tv connection support Oh and OLED screen Display Slightly slimmer also . Im not asking for much . ; )
I want a Zidoo X10s with : two hdmi out puts one for amp duties yes it will be between the x10 and the x20 pro without the DAC Dolby Vision coming soon... satellite tv connection support I dunno Oh and OLED screen Display One day perhaps, it is already available for high-end brands Slightly slimmer also . it is possible but it keeps standard dimensions I guess
Dune have one coming out called sky ! Debatable if it will work on uk tv system etc but has satellite inputs to rear .
