    Hello. I am the owner of Zidoo Z9X Pro, firmware 1.0.95, Russian language. When I search for a movie title in Cyrillic in the Home Cinema 5.0 application, the list of movies is displayed only when I enter the first letter in the field, after entering the second, the search results disappear. Can something be done about this?

    I’ve seen similar behavior on Zidoo players with non-Latin languages. It usually happens because the search function in Home Cinema 5.0 doesn’t fully support multi-character Cyrillic input — it seems to only index the first character properly.
    A couple of things you could try:
    1. Update the firmware if there’s a newer version available — sometimes these language/search bugs get fixed in updates.
    2. Switch the app language temporarily to English and see if search behaves differently.
    3. Use an external media library (like Plex or Kodi) for searching — they generally handle Cyrillic much better than the built-in Home Cinema search.
    It’s a bit annoying, but many users find that one of these workarounds usually helps until an official fix comes out.
