Sorry what HDMI cable are you using?

Hi guys help naman.

I have a sony 4k tv and this zidoo. I also have a denon 4k receiver na. So im connected to zidoo to receiver to tv. I have 2160p files 10 bit, but when i play it the colors are so washed up. Ang puti...Pag 1080p file naman, maganda naman. Why is it like that? Thanks

Sorry what HDMI cable are you using?

Hi sir, Im already using the high speed monoprice cables bought from anya618.

So zidoo hdmi out (4k hdmi monoprice) to Denon 2400 (hdmi input, media player) then hdmi out (4k hdmi monoprice) to a 4k splitter, then out from splitter to my 4k tv (also 4k hdmi cable).

Im using a splitter because my pj is not 4k. 2 in 1 ko, enjoying tv and pj hehe..

 Afaik, all 3 cables are 4k already. Or maybe one of the cables may not be 4k. I will check this again.

Thanks

checked the specs of your denon and all 8 hdmi inputs does support HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 so that's probably not the problem. Also the same for your sony x75f and all 4 hdmi inputs also are HDMI 2.0

But it's weird that your sony info is saying 1080p only. What video settings do you have set for your zidoo?

I would suggest you connect your zidoo direct to your TV first and see what info and colors you get.

Weird diba?

Yun sa zidoo, i set it at 1080p and 60hz, No choices above this setting kasi. I noticed this washed out video already before I upgraded to denon 2400. I had a onkyo 608. Still quite good.

What I tried before is connecting straight from zidoo to my sony 4k tv. The 4k file ran and it is beautiful. But I didn't check the info tho. I will check again... I know it is connection from receiver to splitter to tv, maybe ang problem.

or Im gonna try taking off the splitter and see what happens.

Puro experiment nga ako hehe..

thanks sir,

I'm pretty sure it's the splitter.  that's probably also why you can't set the zidoo above 1080p and 60hz.

you can also try to remove the hdmi cable to your PJ that is connected to the splitter first. Just leave the hdmi connected to your 4k TV.

Yes sir, its the splitter hehe. Thanks a lot. Ya i did the wires all over again just now, nahuli si splitter hehe.

Btw there is another hdmi out sa denon ko, so i will connect this to my pj. Puede yan diba? If yes, how do you select between 2 hdmi outs sa receiver? Saan sa controller yan? Yan ba yun zone 2?

Thanks

I think it's automatic based on your hdmi output settings for your receiver and not activated via remote.

I don't have a receiver with 2 hdmi outs. so you would need to do some testing on what settings would work best on your 4k TV/ 1080p PJ setup.

BTW, what's the model of your splitter?

My X6 does not work on Netflix anymore because my X6 is Android 5.0. Netflix says current version is not compatible with Android 5.0 and below. However there's a workaround according to Netflix. You just need to use their older version.

https://help.netflix.com/en/node/57688

The most recent version of the Netflix app for Android is not compatible with all Android devices running Android 5.0 (Lollipop). If you downloaded the Netflix app from the Playstore and saw a message directing you to install an earlier compatible version, you can download the latest compatible Netflix app here.

NOTE: This version of the Netflix app requires Android version 4.4 (Kit Kat) or later.
First, you'll need to set up your Android phone or tablet so you can install the app directly from us:

If you haven't already, uninstall the Netflix app.

After you've uninstalled the app, go to Settings.

Tap Settings.

Tap Security.

Check the box next to Unknown Sources: Allow installation of apps from sources other than the Play Store.

Tap OK to confirm this change.

NOTE: You can revert back to your original settings once you have installed the Netflix app.
Then, on your Android phone or tablet:

Click here to download the Netflix app.

A blank screen will open and then close to indicate that the download has started.

When the download is complete, swipe down from the top of your screen to open your Notification panel.

Tap the downloaded Netflix file and select Install.

The installation is complete when the notification bar at the top of the screen displays Successfully Installed Netflix.

Find and launch the Netflix app.

If prompted, enter your Netflix email and password using the on-screen keyboard.

You're now ready to watch Netflix on your Android phone or tablet. Enjoy!

Has anybody tried this?

Parang Zidoo is not a legitimate or acknowledged product from Google.

mga master worth it ba na mag upgrade ako from mibox to this x9s? like ako namna pang media player lang.

Thats what I did for my entertainment room. Quicker and snappier although older version of OS compared to mibox.

Mibox is now inside our masters bedroom for regular streaming.

sir jerome if you want is media player lang talaga, kahit mumurahin na android box lang or any amlogic based chipset then use it with libreelec or coreelec os for dual boot from micro sd or install internally just what like what i did with my minix u9. its faster, snappier, (20sec boot up) derecho sa kodi agad siya.

i sold my mibox coz the bootloader is locked.
