I upgrade firmware to v1.5.0. But all files don't play from HDD. Including avi, mkv, SD, 1080p. I try HDD 2Tb NTFS that was init on PC with USB dock station. On mediaplayer "Dune HD Smart H1" all files play normal. On Zidoo X10 writes "Can't play video".
I found the reason. The file is not played if it has an attribute 'Compressed'. Developers, can you fix this in future versions of firmware? (The attribute change takes a long time.)
I think Zidoo will be unable to handle windows file compression. But why not ask for? Is not a good choice enable this compression, useful only for not already compressed files (audio and video are VERY compressed) , and not recommended even by Microsoft, it slows down PC performances (even a little, but depends on HW), and gain not very much space on the average. The only thing you can do is to connect the HDD to your PC and uncompress the drive at all. Sorry, very long...
