    Is this a toggle that can be switched on/off? I.e. I don't want to see posters that are not on the currently connected drive.

    The update is excellent overall, but the lack of external subtitle support remains a major limitation.
    Adding this feature would greatly improve usability, especially for international users. I hope this can be prioritized in future updates in Thetares,plex,emby,..etc.

    totally agree with you.


    @Markswift2003 @Zidoo Support-Kim please consider this! I’m a huge fan of the Z9X8K. With just this one addition, it would truly be the best device on the market.

    Testing the new HT...
    Well, gentlemen, you have problems, requests regarding practical functionality (separating movies and series into “unwatched”), restart issues even with CEC turned off (if Zidoo is turned on before switching to its input, if I select the Zidoo input via the TV or AVR, it restarts systematically, and I repeat, Zidoo's CEC is disabled), audio codec label based on the default audio codec (for non-English speakers), etc... nothing is taken into account... but don't worry, there are themes to entertain you... pffff but let's be serious, please...

    Has multi-channel music playback become gapless?
    Is the music player 8.0 updated?

    Hi there, just to confirm, are you talking about this: https://forum.zidoo.tv/index.php?threads/some-suggestions-for-improving-z9x-8k.101185/#post-261956
    "When external subtitles are used and the current video does not have external subtitles, use the default language subtitle instead first subtitle."

    Thanks for Update.
    A delay in sound playback after the pause has apparently not been fixed? I can't find anything in the changelog.

    Please confirm the detailed version of your HT5, because it occurred in a previous version but got solved later.

    It's a mistake. Thanks for pointing out, corrected.

    Several requests for HT:
    - Separate movies and series in “Not Watched”
    - Display the audio label of the default audio track
    - On the HT home page, when watching a series that has several seasons, when you finish a season but there are still more to go, the series still disappears from “in progress.” It would be nice if it disappeared when all episodes of all seasons on the HDD have been watched.

    Thank you for taking these requests into consideration and also considering people like me.
    Sincerely,

    What will happen if I install Version:v1.2.42 TO v1.3.01 from the latest version v1.2.42_G. I want to remove Google from the box.

    "14.Added functionality for the persistent display of posters following the disconnection or failure of a storage device."

    Can someone shed some light on this?

    Does the poster wall now display all posters in the database regardless if you have a storage device connected with the actual media files on it? If so, is there a way to turn that off/go back to how it was before?

    For example, I have one drive just for movies and another for series. I don't want to see any series posters when I have the movie drive plugged in and vice versa.

    External subtitles have always been supported.

    [Edited] I see, that's the latest version. I misunderstood that it has an extra update. Our dev has confirmed it's a random error, but it's known. The team is going to replicate this, and it can be fixed in the next version. Thanks__(ˇωˇ」∠)_
