Does anyone know of a simple way to switch the DAC output on and off using the Remote Control, Linux shell or any other mechanism or API?

It is rather cumbersome to have to go to Menu->Settings->Sound and turn it on/off there everytime one wants to switch between DAC and HDMI output. A dedicated key on the Remote...

I want to:

- Send the audio analog to my receiver
- Send video to my television, so I can select the music I want to play and enjoy the lyrics.

Somehow this seems not possible?

I've read in various forums that this is supposedly due to incompatibility between the Blu-ray menu and the Zidoo software.

Do not attempt to install this on anything other than RTD1296 based models as detailed below.

This version is stable subject to, but potentially not restricted to, the bugs listed here. If TMDB scraping is not an issue for you at the moment, I recommend waiting for the next version.

Something strange happened with my Zidoo Z10 PRO. Don't know if anyone experienced this as well, but recently something changed in the view/aspect ratio. As of recently the total time of a video, that shows in the left corner is only half visible. It seems like the screen is sort of zoomed in for a few percents, therefore some of the information - and probably the edges - of a video are not visible.

It's not a big drama, but it is sort of annoying to not being able to see the...
