Hi JeromeA.

Thanks for the input. In my case, the Zidoo reads 3 of the HDDs in the Probox and 1 External Portable HDD.

It just fails to read the 4th HDD inside the probox. It detects it, but only shows the same contents of one other HDD in the Probox.

Due to the long vacation we have this month, I installed my X9s again coz I wanna watch different international News Media but problem is my MOBDRO is not working it cant open CNN, MOTORTREND, DISCOVERY Channels. Titanium TV works find though.

Any tips would really be greatly appreciated, thanks much? (I'm no good w/ NMTs)

I've been trying to find a media player that would complement my workhorse WD TV player.
I've tried those $30-80 android players, to somehow sum it up, all of them are really buggy, some would play the video file,
pero walang audio, yung iba naman hindi kayang mag-decode ng DTS or Dolby, and kahit anong adjust ang gawin sa setting,
walang pagbabago, I've tried 5 andorid players I think, I ended up returning them...

Now, I've tested Zidoo Z9S, coz I've been reading some of the reviews here,
unfortunately, unang subok pa lang ay sabit na sya, hindi makung mag-initialize ng player,
And after complaining sa Zidoo, they told me to flash it, following the method na pinadala nila.
Sabi ko sa sarili ko, for $180-200, hindi dapat ganito ito, anyway, I did flashed it,
sabit pa rin,  lahat ng naka-install na app ay ayaw gumana, kahit file explorer ay panay ang error,
so again, I sent it back sa Amazon, and requested a replacement.
So sa ikalawang pagkakataon, sabit pa rin, same issue ang lintek, so I gave up with this brand,...

Tama ang sabi nyo, HIT or MISS na itong brand na ito,...

I am now ordering the Zappiti One SE 4K HDR - UHD Media Player
Hopefully, this would perform well, will let you know as soon as maikabit ko ito...
Quite thankful at maganda ang return policy ni Amazon...

I posted a 1 star review sa Amazon about my experience sa Zidoo Z9S,
and nag-email sa akin ang seller mismo, nagmamakaawa na baguhin ko daw ang review ko,
but I told her that I have to be honest kasi para sa benefit ng ibang buyers,
in the end, inalis ni Amazon ang Zidoo Z9S dahil sa posted review ko,
up to now ay nagmamakaawa ang seller sa akin na bigyan ko pa daw sila ng chance,
magpapadala nga daw ng libreng Zidoo para itest ko para lang mabago ang impression ko sa company nila...

Wag naman, I just wanted to be fair, and as we speak, nagpadala na naman ng message at nakikiusap kung pwede ay baguhin ko ang one star review ko, malapit ko ng ireport kay Amazon ito ulit, this is actually the second Chinese seller na nangungulit na baguhin ko ang rating ko sa mga product nila, again, hindi ko kayang gawin yun at kahit paano ay mabigyan ng warning ang ibang buyer. Dito man lang ay makaganti ako sa mga intsik, hahahahaha..!

I've been trying to find a media player that would complement my workhorse WD TV player.

pero walang audio, yung iba naman hindi kayang mag-decode ng DTS or Dolby, and kahit anong adjust ang gawin sa setting,
walang pagbabago, I've tried 5 andorid players I think, I ended up returning them...

Now, I've tested Zidoo Z9S, coz I've been reading some of the reviews here,
unfortunately, unang subok pa lang ay sabit na sya, hindi makung mag-initialize ng player,
And after complaining sa Zidoo, they told me to flash it, following the method na pinadala nila.
Sabi ko sa sarili ko, for $180-200, hindi dapat ganito ito, anyway, I did flashed it,
sabit pa rin,  lahat ng naka-install na app ay ayaw gumana, kahit file explorer ay panay ang error,
so again, I sent it back sa Amazon, and requested a replacement.
So sa ikalawang pagkakataon, sabit pa rin, same issue ang lintek, so I gave up with this brand,...

Tama ang sabi nyo, HIT or MISS na itong brand na ito,...

I am now ordering the Zappiti One SE 4K HDR - UHD Media Player
Hopefully, this would perform well, will let you know as soon as maikabit ko ito...
Quite thankful at maganda ang return policy ni Amazon...

hi sir.. swerte nyo you're located in the US and Amazon items are easily replaceable  ^-^

hope you could post your reviews here when you've got your SE (that's a newer version for the past 3 years I 1st saw Zapitti

The advantage of zidoo is it's built in Media player.
it's OS is generic android so i don't recommend it for app use especially apps that are designed for android tv os..

I have both nvidia shield and zidoo z1000.. Zidoo is still my choice in local media playing. hands down..
