    Hello, I have tried the 30 titles that I have in fulluhd with bd and only 3 fail, the rest are perfect, I don't have a technical explanation of why they don't work but there are only three.

    But on the zidoo website the latest 8k are not even mentioned in the firmware download section or am I wrong?
    There is no official section where I can download the update like I did with my old z9x
    I updated to version .70 but the latest version is not detected yet, I will have to wait.

    All AML boxes are working OTA (on the air) firmware update unlike RTDs. You have to wait for a while or alternatively download the file from McBluna server: https://www.mcbluna.net/wp/zidoo-model-overview/zidoo-z9x-8k-firmware-download/
    (Warning: make sure what to install as _G version is irreversible).

    Ok - that's interesting...

    I've been playing DV files all day in LLDV and no issues like this at all - going to take a little thinking about this one...

    I kind of know it's not the files, but can you PM me a link to a file (smaller the better) that this happens with so then we're reducing the variables.

    Still the same with UHD BDMV playback, after a 5-10 minutes it keeps hanging for a second....

    The file taken from the site is only 9 MB and says from version 1.80 to version 1.2.01.
    Downloaded the zip and inserted it on a pen drive then connected it to uhd8000 after a short check it tells me update failed.
    I think I'll have to wait for the ota version unfortunately.

    Yes, while you’re in 1.1.70 and those updates are differential, you’ve to update first the previous .70_.80 and then .80_1.2.1

    I've also taken a belt and braces approach and replaced the HDMI lead and swapped over a CEC blocker.

    First five minutes of file where I had the issue can be downloaded below

    Thanks @Markswift2003

    My change notes on the Zidoo itself don't include points 9-12. Were they missed in the notes?

    So, @blenky is it worth the "upgrade" from the 1000pro yet?

    Glad to see forum is back!

    I didn't upgrade from a 1000pro. I had a Z9X Pro. And yes it had been worth the upgrade.

    It happens randomly. Sometimes I can't get it to happen, other times it happens all the time.
