First of all, I would like to congratulate your entire team.

Over the years, I have owned and tested many media players, and I genuinely believe Zidoo currently offers the best balance of image quality, playback reliability, library management and overall user experience for local media playback.

I recently founded SoulSound, a company specializing in high-end audio and home theater in Brazil. As a retailer and enthusiast, I have recommended and sold...

We need some info on your HDMI chain as this seems to only affect certain configurations.

Information from those who do not have any sync issues are just as important as those who do, so if you do not have a problem, please also post your chain.

Can you post your full HDMI chain (model numbers if possible)

After Mark suggested I look for a different media player, I took his advice seriously and did just that. My requirements for a media player are fairly straightforward: stable playback on the TV and a good poster app. I also use the TiViMate app and want it to work, but that’s usually not a problem on Android. Nothing more. I’m familiar with Zidoo and Dune; a Kodi-based player is out of the question for me. So, I ordered an...

I've been happy with my Z9X 8K and QNAP TR-004 DAS combo. I have about 26tb of video on the DAS using exFAT and a software controlled RAID 5 array. The DAS contains 4 18tb hdd's.

Recently, after loading a few more movies onto the DAS from my PC, the Zidoo stopped mounting the DAS. Some info and what I've tried below:

• DAS spins up all 4 drives when plugged into zidoo and blue USB light comes on as before

Now I've noticed that some movies are stuttering. With some movies it helped to start HT several times. At some point the stuttering disappeared. This did not help with one movie.
It was Dolby Vision content with Dolby Digital Plus sound. I then tested this movie with Plex on the Zidoo and there were no stutters at all. How can that be? Is there a way to solve this problem?

Passthrough Compatible Mode

A few months back there was an issue of video stutter with files with some (not all) Dolby TrueHD soundtracks (both discrete or object oriented).

This was found to be due to overly dense keyframes in some non-compliant THD streams and was fixed with the setting:

Settings/Audio/Pass-through compatible mode

If you're having stutter issues, this may be the cause.

Bottom line, switch this on....

I think my SSD is pretty tricky since I already had some problems with LG OLED G5 ports (only worked in 2.0 ones but not in 3.0).

I tried an old 64GB 3.0 pendrive and it works wonderful on the Zidoo, on every port. What can I do? I would really love to use my external 1TB SSD.

Guess I could purchase a new 128GB pendrive...
