    I really love the UHD8000, everyone involved has done an amazing job!

    With that said I have two questions I hope you can help me with,
    what is the best way to connect a wireless keyboard to the UHD8000?
    (I found a Zidoo Wireless Keyboard V6 on the homepage but does not seem availible for purchase anywhere?)

    Secondly, what is the best way to watch Youtube through the UHD8000?
    Any advice would be utmost appreciated.

    May the force be with you mates,

    Get a keyboard that comes with a wireless dongle, plug dongle in Zidoo USB port. Enjoy.

    I use a Logitech K400, works well.

    I use a white wireless keyboard with USB dongle. Just need to pair it. Used the Logitech K400, but could not read the letters in dark living room :)

    Also, these are not really "streaming" boxes; but media playback of local files. Some folks have side loaded an app to play YouTube from an app on Github, but might have to do search in forum for that, or perhaps a kind soul will share the link again :)

    I don't use it myself, but others have reported Smartube works. Pretty sure the official YT app will not work right.

    Thank you mates!
    Silly question, but as a complete noob I cant help but ask you educated mates;
    Looking at cheap keyboard on Amazon, would this work as is? Or would it work if I purchase a bt dongle and cork that in to my uhd8000?

    I hope you have answers, I'm having heckuva hard time finding a small footprint ergo keyboard.
    (Unfortunately I learnt on ergo keyboards and using standard layout keyboards everything turns in to letter-sallad's)

    I really appreciate your kind feedback mates, thank you!!!

    A Bluetooth keyboard does not need a usb input.
    I use Logitech mx keys mini
