    Can AI be turned off?

    I have a pro1000 and a Dune pro 8 but I don't really like the Dune interface or menu etc.

    Is the z9x 8k similar for audio and video as the others in the new line ?? (Yes, I get connections, hd, things like that.. )
    I understand the interface will be the same across the line for the most part... I have everything on my nas, so not sure the higher models make sense for me ... using a z9x now..
    Thanks...

    What exactly does the AI function do. I have a Dune with it and it over sharpens the pic but can be turned off.

    Yes it will be !
    Mark had the brilliant idea of asking that the possibility of activating or not this functionality, be brought back to the settings, and therefore become accessible to the user's choice !

    Get a 10-slot ICY Box and insert 16 Tbyte HDD's. I guess a 160 TByte should do it? But if not obviously you can even cascade those using USB3 with a single port.

    I have a normal usb hub (with power cord) with 4 16tb hard drives, works perfectly.

    The Dune interface can be quite nice if you forget about the new one, stick with the old one and skin it. But regardless of which interface you use, the Dune posterwall is pretty damned horrific.

    I am so impressed with the politeness of the Zidoo forums. (unlike AVscience)

    The Dune interface can be different, if you select Custom and do without Air Design, then you can already build something nice. With folder or list display.
    I find the Zidoo Menu rather outdated, although it is clearer than the Dune, where you have to search for some settings. But design is always a matter of taste.


    @Markswift2003 Can you please answer the question about the delay in online trailers? Is that fixed now?
    I have pre-ordered a Zidoo Z30 Pro, but this function is very important to me and could be decisive, because it works perfectly with the Dune.

    sorry, but completely disagree. Nowadays WiFi 6-7 is very popular and functional in large homes where Ethernet cable is complicated. A great example is Deco system by TP-Link.

    You have these HDDs in a box? How you connect them?

    Usually I'm connecting one 5TB WD External Drive. Is it really a necessary to connect an externally powered USB hub to Zidoo devices, especially the very basic Z9X pro or the upcoming 8K?

    No. As @blenky suggested I've recommended the feature be removed.

    Thank you so much - I shall investigate DIRAC only because I'd never heard of it before

    Is the Z3000 Pro the only one of the 4 models, to use active ventilation ?

    Thank you for your reply.
    A good suggestion would be to make this function work, it does work with Dune and R_volution.
    Too bad... Then I will cancel my pre-order.
    Will wait for the first home theatre videos to see if this is acceptable to me.

    Sorry but have to Dissagree on this one mark
    If the Zidoo did not have wifi id have to veer to another manufacture that did.

    I know several that have never used network connnection ever on there Zidoo
    Or dont use a router or have one.
