    Well the next Chinese Holiday coming up in a couple of weeks is Ching Ming Festival or Tomb Sweeping on 5th April, lets hope we don't get a death notice for Zidoo :eek:

    I can't tell you much, but I can tell you that won't happen.

    Thanks Mark, that's reassuring.

    I'm sure we'll have a good surprise with a next FW full of improvements and new features

    Good joke. Five month and not even only one message is ridiculous and feels like a punch in the face of all buyers.

    They are not our friends guys,

    This is a company that has so far been kind enough to offer some proximity to us on this forum or Facebook and offer FWs every 2-3 months usually.

    I don't see anywhere that they have an obligation to provide FWs or news regularly.

    I even think they are doing better than other companies.

    Mark says not to worry, trusting him.

    And always remember rule #1 of purchasing SW based products - buy based on what the product does today, not what is promised/hoped it will do in the future.

    Time to reswitch to shield with kodi omega and it's flawless dovi/atmos playback (finally) and iso support. Unfortunately I don't really like Arctic Horizon 2, posters are too small for me, but we have proper trailer support and awesome livetv support.

    If size matters, try Aeon Tajo

    As mark already said, it’s not dead….
    so they fixed the red push on DV?

    I was talking about micro jerks with some specific DoVi/Atmos files.

    The red-push issues disappeared for me after I updated the TV firmware a long time ago now. For those who want to test on their Shield, here is the link to the latest version of Kodi with the latest improvements and the link to the file to test if you have red-push:
    I really hope to have another communication from Zidoo and I hope they are not under the threat of US sanctions or something. It is strange that they are switching to Audio only hardware.

    Even mcbluna is worried!

    It's over and out. Otherwise, they would have made themselves heard. Time to move on to another manufacturer.

    So does every one actually Believe on here that a company is going to give up on a Media Box thats gives them major $$$$ income for the last few years & not come with a firmware update or a Newer Model on the Horizon ?

    I believe that even if Zidoo went bankrupt another company will buy the product and soon a new version will be released

    "So does every one actually Believe on here that a company is going to give up on a Media Box thats gives them major $$$$ income for the last few years & not come with a firmware update or a Newer Model on the Horizon ?"

    They do their best at least by not letting anything be heard.
    There will undoubtedly be a new product yes, but the support for this box... I don't believe in it anymore and I'm certainly not the only one.

    How long was a previous model (X9S) with updates planned from release?

    Don't get me wrong, I'm very happy with this box.
    Only be disappointed about the lack of updates and being kept informed.

    They have never announced anything on here whats coming or what's next
    a bit like the company Apple & there new Products
    Secrecy against competitor’s etc i dont blame them.

    We all know were well overdue a new product and they maybe busy doing software / testing for it as the 1619 chipset is now as such restricted going forward as such or reached its limitations ?

    We may go for a fully fledged streaming box Netfilx etc
    who knows.
    And once out or announced a firmware will come for the Zx series but like all the older generations & like Apple support slowly gets dropped over the years or less so.

    Im sure many will upgrade there older boxes as its approaching 2.5 years plus now ?
