New firmware v1.4.4 version for ZIDOO X9S released

Does anyone use Zidoo Media Theatre to play blu-ray movies? I'm forced to use this app to get Blu-ray menus, which works great. But there is one big problem. The "intelligent-scanning" feature keeps getting the movie title wrong.

Why can't Zidoo Media Theatre read/display the .xml files located inside the movie folder that contain proper movie info instead of trying to do its own movie name matching, which is not accurate at all.

 

I agree with the above, mentioned before about the scanning but was ignored.

 

I think either Zidoo Media Theatre should allow us to type in the movie name or read the various types of media info files such as .xml that is compatible with Kodi, Emby etc.

 

Or they should adopt the Media Center technology to the Kodi Wrapper player

 

I don't know what "Media Center Technology" is, but in principle I agree, as long as the movie files are recognized properly. Right now some of my movies are so incorrectly mislabeled.

 

You can edit the information from by using the identification number. In this all my movies are displayed properly.

 

Identification number? Please explain?

 

In Media Theater you can edit any movie under options. First you have to find the specific movie in IMDB. When you have found this, the identificationnumber will be displayed in the URL and is something like TTxxxxxxxx. Fill in this number on the spot where you edit the movie and hit update.

 

Try it before nothings changed,

Repeat it again fw 1.4.4 the worst firmware in zidoo history and lots of people flash firmware to back 1.3.3 or older fw

 

I only use the external player, and i have no problems. All works perfect with the new update.
Only Blu Ray menu function doesn't run smooth. But i don't care.

 

is usb2.0 fast enough for 4k video playback?
as my usb3.0 port seems to have issue that the portable hdd would disconnect sometimes and only reboot fix the problem.

And most of the time i am playing 720p mkv (dramas) with it.

 

Hopefully Zidoo will fix this F/w soon
V1.4.4 is a bad firmware with major issues...I had to go back to v1.2.12

 

Bug remained, there is no transition to the temperature in Celsius in the extended weather characteristics when viewing by date.

 

Revert the fw to 1.3.0 beta
Now everything works fine

Smb subtitle works well now
Usb3.0 is stable
I am not going back to 1.4 until 1.4.5 comes out...

 

One by one all addons are failling.....movie scrapers, openweathermap extended, cirrus es skin layout ect ect.
Better to buy a dedicated kodi machine like the odroid c2. I dont like to be dependent on zidoo`s upgrade
every time kodi fails again.

 

Still no new update after the announcement. Checking in for 3 weeks now :O
Must be a good update

 

Obviously, all of their attention is on the release of the X7. You would think they would concentrate on releasing a completed product first, before adding yet another incomplete product. The X8, X9S, and X10 are all based on the RTD1295, so it basically the same code base. The X7 is based on the the RockChip RK3328, so their engineers are all distracted trying to get that new chipset to work.

 

Is there feedback from developers in this forum? I think we are talking to ourselves.

 

I have two questions for all X9S owners using this firmware version:

- Which is the current DVD menu navigation status? Is it fully implemented?
- Can you zoom in/out the picture? If so, can you do it in several steps?

Thanks in advance.

 

actually i bored to wait for a stable firmware i am in 3 month with zidoo x9s still no stable
