Hi, i tried to play Acroamatic - Almost Heaven [7.1].ts on zidoo x1 II using zdmc kodi also using integrated player. Seems playback is not fluent. I tried another linux kodi player , and playback is fluent without shuttering. I'm using external HDD , samsung passport ultra 2TB. You can see shutter in stars. On TV internal playback no issue. I think problem is from file, or ts file, frame rate. I will test next update, or next kodi 16.1 if zidoo team will release this update.

I have a general question because I just purchase this box online. When I using the Release Hub add-on in Kodi to watch 4k videos, the videos are not playing and if they do show up, it's very slow. I also use test files in the Demo-UHD addon and still the same problem. Why can' t 4K videos play in Kodi on this box? I read that it can play 4K video in Kodi and that was reason why I purchased this box. I got it from a Aliexpress seller that said it is a authentic Zidoo X1 II. My internet speed is about 32mbps. Please if you can test those videos on your box and let me know if they are working so, I can have an idea if it the box not able to decode those videos or it's my internet.
