Beta version v6.4(7).42 for Z9X/Z10 Pro/Z1000 Pro/UHD3000/NEO S/NEO X/NEO Alpha release

Sorry, no, it's not that (or at least not on its own).

ST.2086 essentially defines colour volume transforms using a static tone map (basically a gamma curve). ST.2094 is the same but for dynamic tone mapping.

Whilst this metadata is not always present, when it is present, you'll see ST.2086 in HDR10 content and ST.2094 in HDR10+ content and it's the same for Dolby Vision content that has an HDR10 or HDR10+ base layer (Profile 7 & 8 only).

I have several Profile 7 ST.2094 files and all play perfectly in DV.

Out of curiosity I just converted a Profile 7 ST.2094 file (with HDR10+ base layer) to Profile 8 ST.2094 to see if it's Profile 8 that's causing the confusion and it played fine in Dolby Vision.

Dolby Vision, Version 1.0, dvhe.08.06, BL+RPU, HDR10 compatible / SMPTE ST 2094 App 4, Version 1, HDR10+ Profile B compatible

 

@khollister Covered it well - I must have the OSD for both volume and audio information. I like the PQ going through the Denon as well. Overall its less stress for me that way in fact, except the darn no signal screen when playing and stopping movies.

Hey Mark,

I think I mentioned it before, but it's definitely a bug...but not immediately apparent. If I sent audio to Volume Direct Mode, over a course of a week or two, its gets quieter and quieter for any compressed audio (or it could be all non-bitstream formats)....was watching a clip earlier and got to the point I had to put the volume upto 50% on my amp, then I thought, ok, odd, left the amp at the same volume, switched Volume Direct Mode off and played the clip again and it nearly blasted the windows out....I guarantee it's not the amp.....clocked it before in previous F/W.

I know that bug might be hard to track down, but it's there.

Can't replicate that at all and if I'm honest, it's kind of not possible without user intervention because of the way it works.

I always have Volume Direct Mode on, so it's been on over the course of many months not just a couple of weeks.

Just tried an LPCM clip and it played at the expected volume. Turned Volume Direct Mode off and still the same (volume just happened to be set to max when I turned Volume Direct off).

What I can tell you is that if you turn Volume Direct off and you adjust the volume down to say 50%, when you turn Volume Direct on, volume is set to 100% and then if you go back to off, it's back to 50%.

But with Volume Direct on, Android volume (ie for non bitstream sources) is set to 100% always.

 

Yeah, I understand...like I said.

Could be the amp....I'll observe and try to replicate the issues and report back.

 

Yeah - if you can give me a way to replicate it I'm always happy to do that.

 

I've noticed I'm not able to get HDR10+ when I play an mkv that has both HDR10+ and DV (2022's Elvis is one example). DV seems to pawn HDR10+ in Home Theater for these files. That's unfortunate for me because my Zidoo is connected to a Samsung TV. I've verified that videos with *just* HDR10+ work just fine.

Is this a known issue? Fixable you think?

 

you have to set player to /Display /HDR /Mapping HDR10 to force it from DV to HDR10+

Does work ,pain to have to keep swapping round thou

 

Thank you, that works. I only have a handful of these files, so I shouldn't have to do this very often.

 

I don't know if this is still an issue, but using that setting to force HDR10+ on a DV+HDR10+ file in the past has raised the image for me, so would check a scene you know should be black and see if it is. http://forum.zidoo.tv/index.php?threads/forcing-hdr-raising-blacks-on-dv-hdr10-content-z9x.94282/

It's not an issue, it's how VS10 works and is supposed to work.

VS10 always picks the highest available HDR mode based on the content and the EDID available. So Dolby Vision, if available, will always trump HDR10(+).

If a file has Dolby Vision with an HDR10+ base layer it's preferable to use the Dolby Vision metadata rather than HDR10+.

If you're curious however, under normal circumstances (with a TV capable of DV and HDR10+) you just load an HDR10+ only EDID, but in your case, with a Samsung, just turn off custom EDID and set HDR to Auto.

 

hello partners

I have a zidoo z1000 pro next to an lg g2 oled tv for the image and for the sound I have it connected to an av amplifier receiver with my home cinema.

I would like to know what configuration you have in these 3 settings? HT4 covers scroll slower if I have the resolution at 3840x2160 23hz, so I leave it at 3840x2160 60hz, is that correct?

 

This is a English only forum. Can you translate and re post? Thanks

 

Well Zidoo are back form the New Year. Any news about a new firmware? Its been awhile!

 

Thanks for letting me know, I don't know what happened

 

Lol

its there first day back today !
Let them at least catch up with e:mails ………

 

Hello,
I hope to have an update to correct the problems with the list of actors (which are not the right ones) and that the feature requests for HT4 are taken into account

 

Zidoo Team - Happy Monday and Happy New Year! _ Lets start with a Bang and release that Menu's FW!

 

With Dolby Vision on Zidoo, not all problems with the black level are resolved as needed?
