    What are the right settings? I'm.not able to get any output? Resolution keeps jumping back to 4k.

    Thanks

    Well, as you are aware.. .the Darbee is not capable of processing 4k signals, so you absolutely have to lock your Zidoo output to 1080p only.. but I am guessing that the Darbee is not reporting its resolution limitation properly to the Zidoo and the Zidoo is going by what your display is reporting as 4K capable? Thus the resolution jumping back to 4K. I assume you have already tried locking your output display resolution to 1080p and using matching frame rate only menu option? and if that is not working, you may need a custom EDID? @Markswift2003 thoughts?

    I really wouldn't bother with a Darbee for these boxes. What are you going to gain??

    Oh, I totally agree! I got rid of my Darbee, when I first got the Epson projectors that were capable of 4K e-shift. The Epsons include other picture adjustments which pretty much can mimic what the Darbee's could do if you wanted... with plenty of options for levels of detail enhancement and combined with the 4k e-shift output, I found it rendered the Darbee moot.

    Lumagen or MadVR processor maybe, but mad expensive and you need to understand the law of diminishing returns, but honestly, these days, they're becoming less and less relevant.

    IMHO of course ;)

    Preaching to the choir here! ... Although.. Is it strange that the OP, can't lock the output of their Zidoo to 1080p along with match frame rate only and allow that Darbee to function if they really need it to?
