    I've tried to install the latest version. Works quite well.

    The same errors that the player has had since the beginning are still ongoing, funnily enough:

    - old codecs, Divx3, Divx4, sometimes won't play - it may be related to GMC or QPEL settings in those codecs, I'll try to check next time I find an unplayable video

    - if you fast forward and rewind one video too many times for too long, an error may happen: the video will stop playing and the Zidoo will refuse to play any other video, until you turn off and restart the player

    - sometimes the power button doesn't turn it off, just displays "Power Actions" setting, and you have to keep pressing the button

    Other than those errors, the firmware works well.

    No it not. Zomming should be done by your TV anyway.

    Why do you want this option? I have this option on my old mediaplayer konoos Gv-3765 and I used this option 2 or 3 times for six years.

    You can access the settings by clicking on one of the icons lower right.

    or via quick settings

    I've assigned one of the colored buttons to access the settings.

    HDMI CEC Functions

    One Touch Play

    One Touch Standby

    What do these mean?

    I used it a lot on old player. To maximize viewing area. Projector is 16:9, most movies are 2,39:1. You can see difference quickly:

    On this player zoom functionality is utter rubbish and of course it is hard to understand why to use it at all.

    I found another bug on the latest firmware, no clue, whether it appeared before.
    If I play an x265-encoded 4k movie (mkv-container) and press pause (the play-button) and then press play again to continue the movie --> sound is missing. This only happens with 2160p (x265-encoded?) movies.
    Can any1 please verify this bug?

    suggest you post a mediainfo file report to assist in tracking down any common features causing the problem. I haven’t received my Zidoo yet but this use to happen on my cloud media a-500.
