A little translation into English of what it brings, would be nice!

 

I am sure that they are working on it. I just copied and pasted the text into online translator.

Download speed is very slow. It says 44 more minutes to download the 720MB Z10 Pro package.

 

This is interesting.

 

Its probably slightly pre-mature from zidoo schedule. Was posted on 07.15.2022.

I couldnt get google translate to work on the changelog sorry.

Sneak-Peak: Streaming Trailers still broke ass!

 

Mine was very slow via VPN: direct to NAS was very fast for some reason. Shit VPN I guess.

 

Really disappointed to receive a change log only in Chinese after so long waiting time!!

 

This was not an official announcement. I am sure mirror can add the changelog if he so desires.

 

Downloaded and installed. HT4 is running fine. Will try MP7 later.

 

Working fine on Z1000pro (w/ Google) as well. Cheers!

 

They really need to fix the HDR10+ metadata problem. I partially bought the Z9X because it supports HDR10, HDR10+ and DV. They really can't claim HDR10+ support when it doesn't actually output it properly.

 

The changelog in fact is the change from V6.4.17 to v6.4.18 versions.

 

Ironic , since we didnt get 6.4.17 for these models right?

 

Default subs flags are almost perfect but they still have a bug. If you set default (primary) subs to "follow default flag" then BDMV folders with a single sub file (track) will have the subs showing at all times (wrong). The forced subtitles set to "follow default flag" works properly for MKV if the forced track is set to default or BDMV folders only if the "forced" is set on a separate sub track and not on the primary/only track since it assumes that is the one set to default (wrong since BDMV does not assign default to a single sub track unless it is different from the primary audio track). If the forced subs are only flagged as forced in the default track the entire sub track will show all subs (wrong, should only play the forced unless the audio is not the primary).

The Auto and follow default flag options now seem to be fighting against each other.

BTW, the correct method is honored by all other players so the developers are just one step away from fixing this.

 

Um there are still outstanding issues with the new Android API, i hoped they would hold-off new FW until those are fixed.

 

I don't think this one was actually published. Somebody got hold of it via a Chinese backdoor instead.

 

Unfortunately, the trailers still don't work.

However, there is Progress: HT now finds online trailers, but fails to play them.

So Zidoo is at least on the right track.

 

Yes, that's how it is

 

Download speeds fine here, 35 secs for Z9X and 40 secs for Z1000Pro

 

Without G has always been good. Even faster than 35 sec. Once in two or three.
