Thanks for viewing, thing is I never mentioned the source you're referring to. This video will hopefully open more doors for people looking for different options is all.
@@pein3480 we good. Someday congress will pass a bill for consumer protection from media wear and tear and failure. I think they already did. If you own a disc or have a stream subscription to that content a person should be able to download a offline version for better quality and offline watching while they own the same media. No owner should suffer when there optical media fails after 10 years. Rip and backup your 4k media.
Great video - I am also getting the same Auto hdr problem - I have a Panasonic HDR10+ OLED - I have ordered the Fibbr cable - did that brand solve the issue for you, or was it only the Ruby set you mentioned?
Appreciate the video! Glad to see the player delivered on its promises! Quick question, did you notice any noise coming from the hard drive when you played your movies off of it? And any recommendations for hard drives if I plan to connect straight to the box with the SATA cable like you did?
I own both, if you're trying to play back ISO/BDMV then dune is your choice because it has the best support for those formats. Or playing multi channel sacd files. You would pick zidoo if you want a better overall interface for home theater and along with a dedicated music app for your local music files.
Could you show a tutorial for making your 4K movie rips with Dolby Vision support, also a video on ripping tv series and software and settings used for both Thank you.
Unfortunately my methods go against the terms or service even though we're in the space of enjoying home media. It's best if you email me for that I can point you in the right direction.
Can it run Dolby profile 7 dual layer FEL rips perfectly fine? I have Nvidia shield 2019 currently but it doesn't run dv profile 7 rips with its full potential. It ignores the MEL/FEL layers which has extra metadata. And do you recommend buying this when I already have Nvidia shield?
I won't say 100 percent because these Realtek players have issues. If you have a shield and that works for you no need to use a zidoo player in my opinion. These type of players support the profiles but I saw mixed reviews on the dual layers fel rips.
Be careful, I owned a Dune HD Real Vision 4K Plus, and am buying a zidoo z9x pro. Why? Dune HD has no HDR10+ on kodi, and dune collection scraping, is different from kodi pattern. If you like kodi, go zidoo.
Hey Pein, is the hdmi cable that comes with the Zidoo an hdmi 2.1 cable? in other words, does it support 48 gbps? I figured it should since the z20pro is a 2.1 device but not sure if they would include that in the box. Thanks for your input!
@@usmankhalid990 Futeko responded back to me and said the cable that comes with the zidoo is hdmi 2.0 and doesn't display any different outside of that.
Hello, I have switched from a Dune HD 4K Pro to the Zidoo Z9X Pro. The picture quality of the Z9X Pro is very good, but the Zidoo app is significantly worse than the Dune. But the biggest problem is that the Zidoo has big problems with Blu-ray BDMV and ISO with menu. None of my 30 BDMVs and ISOs were played back by the Zidoo without errors. Even a test Zidoo X9S and Z9X have the same problems. HDD connected via SATA. However, my Dune HD 4K Pro plays ALL 30 BDMVs and ISOs without errors. Is this known? Is there a solution, what can I do? The longer I have the Z9X Pro, the more I do NOT like it.
Hello Biker, I'll be addressing this comment in a video upload scheduled for tomorrow. It's a known issue with zidoo not playing back bdmv/iso with menus correctly or some even failing for that matter. The solution is to do your research on the forums to see what work arounds is being posted. I have the Dune Real Vision 4K Plus and it played every ISO I threw at it so far.
@@pein3480 I think I will try to get a Real Vision 4K, Real Vision 4K Plus or Pro Vision 4K Solo. Unfortunately they are no longer available new. The new Pro One 8K Plus is also supposed to be very good, but it's also expensive!
Yes, I know what model you're referring to it's sold out right now, and just last week, it was available... Going with dune, you'll enjoy your menus the way you are supposed to at least
Same. It has issues. And the delays on playback and even some menu navigation isn't really acceptable when boxes from a couple of years ago don't have them. Not quite sure why so much hype and praise for this box, returned mine the other day.
1) Doesn’t it launch into Home Theater 4 automatically every time we launch the system? 2) does the receiver showing the audio decoded? E.g DA, DTS etc
You can set a option in the apps menu to automatically load into home theater 4.0 and on my nakamichi setup when I play a dolby atmos or dts or whatever he displays the source format.
Actually I did my own research and upgraded the 9xpro beta firmware and that took care of it. I do/ still have a problem with ISO files playing multitracks. Stereo works fine 👍🏻 5 or 6 channel very choppy via hard drive direct or off my wired network. I'm hoping another update will fix this
That's a high quality combo for sure, I did a little research on that new zidoo model you mentioned what size hard drive are you targeting? Would be interesting to see your setup once you have everything hooked up.

Hello, I have the Zidoo z9 S and many times with a USB hard drive the image freezes and restarts. Has this problem been solved with this new Zidoo? Thank you
I've tested the ISO 4k with this as well it plays... but not as well as the dune model I have. One of my dragon ball z movies did not load the menu however the pure ISO loaded fine on Zidoo.
@@pein3480 R_volution manufactures 4K UHD media players have the best menu I ever seen but I don’t think they can be stable on the market… is this true Dolby Vision have only 8bit on an oled I was so shocked the first time because I thought 12 bit but the panel is limited:/
I don't have any experience with the r_volution according to dune and others online they are considered the best in class when it comes to ISO/BDMV menu playback. True Dolby vision I wouldn't call it that but it's the closet thing to the best. What oled tv do you currently own?
Define true dolby vision? I have both the LG C2 in 65 and 42 and the 42 is around 700 nits of peak brightness and the 65 inch around 800. They are solid televisions but the hdr performance would be a downgrade compared to qd oleds. My model supports all the dolby vision profiles across all major file types. The tv and the media player play a big part in this.
Is there any difference performance wise compared to the original z9x? I have that one, and the os is really struggling at times. Straight up shutting down media player for example in the middle of the use. Also won't recognize nvme m2, after numerous attempts. Like a gamble for no reason if it will recognize it or not. So is it worth upgrading, will I get a bit better processor if nothing else, maybe more ram to fix these issues?
@@GiBMan70 ok, so it's basically the same. Depending the file, I sometimes watch 90 gig movie without any issues. But sometimes the file might be corrupted so it crashes. Sometimes it won't even load the bd menu properly.
No this is a device that's mainly used to play back your physical media rips or for building your own digital collection locally. It gives you the ability to stream various applications but the stability depends on the source.
@wundimeister7786 I don't think it's that serious this is my initial impressions of the device presentation wise it gives the audience the talking points they need lol

Thanks, all the cables I have linked in my description can solve the issue. Specifically for a quick switch I did use ruipro initially though.
Appreciate the video! Glad to see the player delivered on its promises!
Quick question, did you notice any noise coming from the hard drive when you played your movies off of it? And any recommendations for hard drives if I plan to connect straight to the box with the SATA cable like you did?
Thanks for viewing, I didn't noticed any noise on mines. I used a wd external drive and it's plug n play literally works as advertised.

I left mines on default perhaps I could address this in a video thanks.
@@pein3480 please do. As far as i saw Lg c2 should use player led,because TV led makes RPU profile be read twice making it not good picture.
I haven't forgot about this comment I'm looking further into it and currently doing some tests.
@@pein3480 yeah no worries, take your time. Thanks :)
Thanks for this Video, which one would you prefer? This Zidoo pro 4k or Dune
HD Real Vision 4K Plus ?
I prefer the dune but I have a comparison video in the works actually.
@@pein3480 Thanks, that was my tendency too
Be careful, I owned a Dune HD Real Vision 4K Plus, and am buying a zidoo z9x pro. Why? Dune HD has no HDR10+ on kodi, and dune collection scraping, is different from kodi pattern. If you like kodi, go zidoo.
Is there an option to view individual posters rather than collecting them? I'm not asking about manually deleting collections. Thanks in advance.
I'll be covering this in a upcoming video you have more control with zidoo but some things are limited.

The hdmi cable that comes with the zidoo I'm honestly not sure I can email them to get further clarification on that for you.
@@pein3480 I would really appreciate that! I wonder if you just happened to get a defective cable or if all the wires are junk.

Decode? No this device plays the audio the way it was intended of course with you having the supported audio equipment.
