I just purchased X8 on Amazon. ZDMC can't play any videos as streams. It loads up and once you select a stream the screen goes black. I Also have a Matricom box and have never seen this issue. Tried to also stream HD on Exodus with the same issue. Black screen and no sound. I updated firmware to 1.2.7 = No luck I have cleared cache and messed around with Video acceleration setting and nothing helps.
I had problems getting ZDMC to pass through audio. Fixed after re flashing the unit. Might be worth a try.
Its a brand new box. I imagine that issue should be resolved with a firmware update. I have installed SPMC and it works flawlessly. No other issues with the box at the moment that I am aware of. My issue is not audio. Its with video. Nothing works in ZDMC
