What about zidoo?

There’s no more zidoo thread in lowyat forum at the moment. The last one was already closed.

The X9S (Android 5) can do wonders, but there are newer models (android 7) in the market at the moment, pricing wise not that cheap...for now.

So...what was the question again?

someone asked about boxes that can do full bdmv menus + atmos audio in another thread.

i reposted here and thought he can check a bit more and some of u can comment, incl zidoo box.

but he hasn't come here (yet), guess no need further comments.

apologies for the inconvenience. biggrin.gif

to my knowledge, only himedia, egreat and zidoo - using proprietory player apps - can do that... maybe more but i dunno.

4 classes, i wud say... for full bdmv menu + hd audio:

.. those that can play if u navigate to main m2ts file but no hd audio, no menu.
.. those that can play if u navigate to main m2ts file, hd audio but no menu.
.. those that can read BDMV folder, play direct, hd audio but no menu.
.. those that can read BDMV folder, hd audio, get full menu.

bluray.apk is to be installed like any other app.

if u get it from pc, of course u place it in usb first.

once u install and activate, it stays there, even if u update firmware later.

its already preinstall in the unit I bought from nicety, just need to turn it on

I tried a concert pop up menu, couldn't navigate to the song I want after the main menu, need to go to main menu back again to reselect the track I wanna listen

must be a bug I guess

ya, it shud be there.

besides the main bd menu, play around with the menu button on the remote to find top menu, chapters, playlist, etc.

also, go slow when in the menu, give it time to navigate.

No problem selecting. Which FW version are you on. I am still using 2.0.8.

You are just testing one title or multiple titles?

if u have problem selecting the track, it could be due to either the rip is not well done or u need to give it more time to respond.

i have experienced this with my own collection.

does work unless rip is bad.

about BMDV menus, this guy said it well below:

not many players can do BDMV menus... so, enjoy what u have!
QUOTE
That's the difference between an authored disc and raw data files and the difference between the DVD-Video spec and the BDMV spec:
To play menus, and those other authored features, you MUST have an authored spec-based player, not just a raw file-based player.
The DVD-Video spec has long since been decrypted, decoded, reverse-engineered to the point that there are FOSS softwares that can play (nearly) the full DVD-Video spec. Either disc or ISO.
The Blu-ray spec is much newer (2006 vs. 1995), and the IP involved is much more tightly controlled and hawkishly guarded, so there is no FOSS software that fully covers the spec. Only paid, licensed software such as Cyberlink.
Which is why what you see in things like KODI and other free players is only raw files when it comes to BD level.
Until such time as the BD spec gets more fully reverse-engineered, or the powers that be let it be more opened up (not gonna happen), that's just the way it is.

why not u try?! biggrin.gif

old models, android4... i doubt it.

Q5pro/q10pro 2.0.8 onwards, no problem.

unifi playtv is only partially compatible, i.e. u need to find tablet version and sideload, update when required.

astrogo is fully compatible - just install from playstore, dun need anything else, will auto update as well.

Hi HiMedia sifus, i have upgraded my Media player and recently found my previous HiMedia Q5 (Single core/ARM Cortex A9 1GHz) and it can still boot! As this is dated and no more support, let me know if so happen you have the last updated firmware newer than mine as below:

Model number: Q5.1004
Android version: 4.0.3
Kernel version: 3.0.8_godbox
Build number: HMD-1.0.3 2012-11-06.171255

Most newer app cannot run due to Android version 4.
Feel free to suggest better APKs or other alternative too (I just wish it can watch local/SG/HK channels & Adrama app for TVB series).

Thanks is advance!

this box is ancient... >8 years old.
last firmware probably dated 2013.
true, it can still do a few simple apps but not the new ones... sluggish... i think can't do new youtube versions as well.
yes, himedia hardware is good... last v long... i have a couple 6-7 years old, still working.

adrama may work but icdrama rss will not.. need android5 or higher.

what new media player u upgraded to now?
