without DV already awesome right

boss I think ur file ada issue

I testis both the files, no issue on my Z9x
menu can use

surprisingly beautiful planet I got problem playing on the Z9x, never had this issue on the previous Z9s

and one issue for me, I set back all to auto, my hdmi handshake (I think its that problem) is serious

the screen keep twitching then black out at menu time , macam sadako climbing out of my tv soon
x blh tahan, so switch back to auto

was watching protege over the weekend, I believe SDR file
play in VS 10 DV, quite wash out, black become greyish
if I set it to auto, everything looks quite good to my eyes

Hmm..... but last time I play in DUNE no issue...

later i try using old 1080P player and see can jalan or not.... too long no play the 2 concert. haha

hahah u test test n update

maybe the file keep too long liao rosak is it? hahah

I tot the detection a long time ago dy since HT 2.0
shows atmos track, HDR and what not

My NAS also running out of space dy... my peasant eyes cant really see the diff for UHD movie ler

How you setting your new NAS?

By the way, I got some issues on poster wall
Last time 2.0 I remember no such issue
how do we set it to categories?

I want differentiate by drama, movies and Blu-Ray
but it all lumps together , even when I set it to 3 diff destination on the NAS
video > movie
bluray
drama

Now there is More button at bottom which will display more info about the movie. I think u refer to those boxes on the poster itself.

Originally my intention is to use my 10 yrs old i5 to set up temp NAS for streaming the movies, but then the old PSU spoilt .... bought a new one, then still canot bootup .. so no choice hav to buy new hardware, but using the old casing. This casing can put in 10 HDD

I didnt set any categories, coz mostly I only watch movies, rarely got drama. Later I check and see

I use Plex, which helps sort the media in my NAS and let me pick up where I left off

what NAS u using? Where is ur Plex App? The TV itself or on the Box?

@cyclone possible, I remember seeing 4k/hdr/atmos at the poster sana
fuiyoh... 10 casing... really regret buy only 4 casing and 4 tb drives hahahah dunno can add more or not

my main problem is I wanna differentiate mkvs and bdmv
if not see liao damn cluster, but my bdmv mostly concerts only

Nas = custom made pc with various scsi pcie. I have filled it until drive w: now

Plex server = installed on a cheap PC. If you are looking to only direct play, you can also use a raspberry PI as the plex server. It does not need to be the same machine as the NAS

I can access plex on any device, using either the official app, or as I usually prefer, Kodi with Plex plugin, as Kodi supports animated subtitles natively. I suggest using Kodi for Zidoo

ahhh tat kind of setup for you pros hahaha

I have plex on my tv (same network), only use it when no choice, certain movies dont play very well
not used to the busy layout either

then have plex on my iPad (played on diff network) couldnt get it to play above 360p
so kinda give up

Use Kodi many years back, I think im too stupid for it, no idea how to use tat, but with Zidoo home theather, I dont think there is a need for Kodi
one of the reason I bought zidoo was purely for the HT app

that's the least we shud do.

in 5 years time, 1080p will be a thing of the past... ok for very old movies but not the newer ones.

when video+audio equipment prices "normalize" for 4kHDR+atmos/dtsx, the best results will be realized.

i m patient.

difficult bro.. hardware price may become cheaper but my myr shrinking..

that is true, i m afraid.

i was about to upgrade but hesitated.

also becos i need to sync... cant change AVR but use old TV or add more speakers w/o AVR change, etc.

will see in the coming months...

later i show u. Originally i got 2 NAS from Synology 1 is 2 bay (DS210j, 10 yrs old) another is 4 bay(DS413J), still serving me well, just that run on single core very slow and feel sluggish when access DSM.

Tat's why building another custom one.... wanted to install Xpenology, but due to too new hardware, onboard NIC drivers no available, so I running Openmediavault for now...

When I go in poster wall, just pick what movie I want haha i lazy organize it...

yeah..... that time become 8K already... haha

im using the Synology 918+
so far no issue on DSM except keep prompting me my disk space is low, knn
made me keep deleting items

maybe I dont have super super set up, but im fine with 1080p for my eyes
audio wise I think got surround I also happy dy
but atmos I think its a very nice upgrade

ya... the DSM keep show low space and pop up the msg...very annoying.....

my setup also no super duper... haha but I still can see the different between 1080P and 4K.

audio I quite satisfy with my 5.1.2, just that keep thinking want to change my 10yrs old wharfedale .... itchy hand

currently my setup is not fully atmos, I just use a small sony speaker to serve as height channel. Coming up i still got 2 things to do, change speaker and add a good power amp.

This year spent a bomb to replace those AV stuff almost at 1 shoot...... wallet big hole now

the box is the one you mentioned right? U can see there is a More Info button there.


I'm referring to the detail info.


I think you can create new category inside the poster wall. You try again....

No need see liao...... just close 1 eye, hentam saja....
