Home Theater 2.0 - Tips/Questions/Tricks

in my box, every times i add a new files its automatically do a scan job
but what i want is i do a scan by my order, not automatically
coz sometimes when you have copy many files and it got wrong scrap



meanwhile, i dont know that HT can scan a music video like concert too

 

I received an error "Gallery has stopped" (or similar) while playing a movie around 20 minutes in. Any idea what the hell that was suppose to mean?

The screen switched back to the file (movie) list, but the audio kept playing.

 

I've received that error again, it doesn't seem to affect anything.

Is there a separate download file for Home Theater 2?

 

backup ur scan result and do a factory reset
if you using X9S there's a new firmware release v.2.1.22 and HT got a few feature added for a better scan result

 

I don't do a "scan", I don't want all those annoying posters that clutter up the O/S. AFA that update, there should be another out (they are up to v30 with the other models), that I want to wait for.
The error doesn't affect anything that I see, I just wondered why I got it in the 1st place.

 

Is there a list of all badges that can be created in HT 2.0? I have found many of them through trial and error but can zidoo provide an official supported list please for reference?

How come the greatest player available and you should be proud of that crown, even if temporary will not recognize DTS:X and Dolby Atmos badges. It only defines the underlying track of DTS and TrueHD. This should be simple enough to address. Kodi has this working and supported in the most advanced skins.

Please consider this an official request for this feature of displaying badges for object based audio formats.

 

Ive already mention this request etc on my forum site and here .
It also shows Dts Hd Master in the icons box by the way .

 

hello! How to connect google drive account like in kodi? Thanks!

 

I am using KODI parsing.
Does anyone know what names should have and where to find graphics - posters and fanart to load them into HT ??
He is currently loading movie posters, but not collections.
I have collection graphics in the movie folders under the name - movieset-poster etc.

 

After the latest firmwire update, my home theater is not working. I scanned my hard drive and it does not recognize any of my movies.
For example, Incredibles 2, AntMan and the Wasp, The Meg, etc.,. It recognized them on the prior firmware.

I tried typing in the IMDB ID number and that didn't work either.

Any suggestions?

 

Have you gone into your Home Theatre sources and cleared them out... and then set them up again? I did have an occasion where my Home Theater glitched.... it didn't totally stop working, but it wouldn't see all the movies in 1 of my sources....and nothing in the Not Matched either... I simply deleted source and re-added... then it worked fine again. And if that doesn't work, maybe reload firmware? or the Home Theater app?

 

Hi,
recently got a z9s, when adding films it uses TMDB how do i add the option for IMDB?
Thanks

 

I did a factory reset and that fixed it. Thanks for the suggestions.

 

Hey Guys

Read through this thread and didn't see any mentions of .BDVM files for TV Shows.

I have Archer Season 1 ripped to my HD as 1 .BDVM file. How do I get HT2 to see this as a TV show? It currently just puts all the M2TS streams in the unmatched folder.

For movies, I have the Folder named "Movie Name (Year)" and then the .BDVM and Cert file in the folder. HT2 has no issue reading these folders/files and organizing accordingly.

Any suggestions for TV shows?

 

Hi

It would be very nice in future firmwares that it after seeing a chapter in a tv show season it will appear a mark as seen like in zmdc

Thanks

 

I deleted a poster image in Home Theater 2. I can not get it back on the poster wall by re-scanning the source drive. The movie is on the drive and I can play it back with media center ok. I just cannot get it to show up in the poster wall. How can I reload the movie?

 

I can´t get the Dolby logos in MKV files, any tip?

Thanks.

 

By default, every time I turned on Zidoo X9S, the poster wall used to appear and I did not have to navigate to see it.

For some reason, the poster wall does not appear as default (when I turn the unit on) while it is selected (there is a star next to it).

Would you please tell me where I can go to set the poster wall as the default screen when I turn the unit on?

 

I found that adding (Dolby TrueHD) in the filename will then add that badge to your movies.... Just (Dolby) will add Dolby Digital. Likewise (DTS-HD) will add that badge. But, with True HD files make sure there is no space between True and HD... otherwise it will display Dolby Digital instead..

 

Yes, this is what I am using currently:

4K = 4K badge
3D = 3D badge
HEVC = H.265 HEVC badge
AVC = H.254 MPEG-4/AVC badge
DTS-HD MA 5.1/7.1 = DTS-HD High Resolution Audio badge
Dolby TrueHD = TrueHD badge
Dolby = Dolby Digital badge
DTS = DTS badge
.iso = ISO badge
.mkv = MKV badge

For HT2 last version 2.1.9:

<movie name>.TrueHD Atmos = Dolby Atmos badge
<movie name>.DTS-X = DTS-X badge
