    I want to like this app. But coming from interfaces like kodi or even the plex client (which is not great) this just doesn't cut it.

    • I don't understand why everything on the home screen is huge. Continue watching only shows 3 things at once.
    • I'd love to be able to customize things but even if I can't, I'm not sure I understand the logic of the sections in the home screen being:
      1. continue watching
      2. accessing the libraries
      3. Recently Added Movies
      and nothing else
    • Controls are non existent. How do I mark something as watched? This option is available nowhere I can find (from the home screen, from the library, from the description page of the movie/show, ...)
    • Why on earth, when you open a TV Show that's in the process of being watched, does the page put you on the S01 screen and forces you to manually select the season before it offers a "play next" button?
    • Having the pre-existing "filters" like All / Continue Watching / Unwatched / ... is nice. But it defaults to All every time. And even if I tuned the filters for that view (forcing me to go all the way to the right), they reset every time you leave.
    Other feature I really miss from Kodi: being able to just hit "play" from the home screen or one of the filtered view on a movie and tv-shows, and just have it resume smartly. Either resume the movie / current episode if something is in progress, or start the movie / next episode from the beginning otherwise.

    I really want to like the zidoo and the hardware looks decent enough, but honestly the software is all over the place.

    The jellyfin version looks better so I'm hopeful that things will slowly trickle down on the plex side though.

    [EDIT] Wait it's worse I forgot... In the "continue watching" section, if you have a TV Show, and you select it, it brings you on the main page for that show. On season 1. Come on :-(

    Is this only for the Z9X 8K? I don't see it anywhere on my Z9X Pro.

    Yes, it is only available for the newest line of models and doesn't sound like that will change

    Welp, guess I'll never buy another Zidoo product. Dropping support after less than a year is shameful and should be criminal.
