Topic: Zidoo media player, tips tweaks and reviews - now with new models z9x z1000 pro

[bongchillog]

I bought 2 mini keyboards with trackpad but it doesn't work in the Zidoo. Sayang it would've made my life easier specially in searching.  I also tried it with ZDMC but to no avail.  I used this in my RPI with openelec (Kodi) and HTPC and works fine.

Any idea?

Try to insert in usb 2.0 ports. I remember hid is in usb port 2 and 3. My a4 tech wireless mouse works fine. Will try the logitech wireless keyboard later.

May I ask the ff:
1. why cant we install NETFLIX on Zidoo X9S?
2. Why does the YOU TUBE app need to be logged on as a user before it can be used? Is there a way around this to make it work simply? - solved
3. How can we mirror an IOS devise like iphone or Mac? What app is best?

Thanks so much!

After some tweaking I was able to make the mini kb with trackpad work. Made my life easier.  Works with the main menu and with zdmc. Problem lang is shutdown.  Still need the orig remote to do it unless there is a workaround with this.

I was able to mirror my android phone using Miracast Player. Downloaded it in Google play store in Zidoo. Then I am using Miracast (Wifi Display) in my phone.

You can also cast Netflix on your android phone to Zidoo then to your display but with only stereo sound.

For iphone I found this link which could help (i hope) as I can't try this (no iphone).

Hi tanong naman. Recently i downloaded the full bd file of baywatch. Yun meron bd menu dolby atmos 7.1 I only have an onkyo 608. Afaik it wil downscale to dolby true hd. My question is bakit palagi putol putol yun sound. Sound will disappear for a couple seconds then back on. Pa ulit ulit. If yun mga mkvs na 10gig or less no problem naman sa sound.

What is wrong?

Thanks

[Moks007]
