    Hey,

    I'm also waiting for this Zidoo player fix for NFS/SMB shares. My entire media library is shared over NFS from a different computer.
    Also, I find that the Zidoo player has a few issues with aspect ration and subtitles. It always uses "full" aspect ratio instead of the actual video's aspect, and when I change the aspect, it doesn't remember the change and I need to select the setting for each file I play...
    For the subtitles, it defaults to play subtitles that come WITHIN the video file if there are any, but I always use external subs. I can choose a different subtitle file but, again, the player doesn't remember the choice and I have to choose each time I play a file.

    Do you think this will be fixed in future versions?

    I reverted to firmware 1.0.11 where KODI plays normal content *almost* perfectly and the Zidoo player plays everything flawlessly.
    I hope the next firmware version fill fix things so that KODI will play the same way the Zidoo player does, or will bring a customized KODI version that uses the correct codecs as the Zidoo player stuff.

    Will that happen?

    Thanks!

    Good morning.
    I plan to buy the new model Z9X 8K and use Kodi Omega apk, I ask if the script “playercorefactory” can work on this box.
    I tried the script on Z9X but it does not perform playback and the message “External player active” appears.
    Thank you very much
