    Good day

    Yesterday my long-awaited Zidoo z9x 8k finally arrived, I was testing it and I had some doubts. I'm lucky to have come across you, let's see if you can help me. I apologize if these are very newbie questions but I am a neophyte on the subject:

    I have noticed that there are some old AVIs that I cannot view. You click on the file, it tries to play it and it returns you to the screen where the file is without a single explanatory message. I have dropped the myth that this bug read everything. Do you know why he doesn't read it? I have tested this same file on the shield's Kodi and it reads great.

    For this reason (and this is the other question I wanted to ask you), I would like to know how to install Kodi on the Zidoo. I know it's installing a firmware, but I don't know where to find it.

    And as a last question, to find out if I have problems with the installed firmware, can I recover it to factory settings by resetting it.

    Thank you very much in advance and a big hug to all.

    Re Kodi there is a version called ZDMC for Zidoo. Take a look at this thread

    thank you a million
    I want to use it for the old avi that I have and that Zidoo doesn't play for me
    Therefore, when using Zidoo's ZDMC player, could it be that those AVI files are not read to me, and the native Kodi would be better?
    Thank you very much and greetings

    Probably as ZDMC will use Zidoos native player

    Good morning.
    Thank you very much for answering my questions
    As you told me, I installed ZDMC, but I don't know what's happening because the playback of the files makes me jump and stutter.
    The sound also makes a series of clicks.
    Could the problem be in the configuration? Where can I check the correct ZDMC configuration?
    Thank you very much in advance!!!

    I don't use ZDMC so can't help other than directing you to the link I gave.

    Thank you both very much for your invaluable help.
    Indeed, the problem I had with playing the old AVI files was because they were files with a divx codec.
    I have decided not to complicate my life and play these with Kodi from my shield, and continue enjoying the powerful native player of EL Zidoo, which except for these, plays them all for me, and for the moment without crashes, freezes, stumbles, etc..
    Thank you once again for your invaluable collaboration.
    a big hug
