NTFS USB

Zidoo X6 File Explorer = Not Working
Zidoo Media Player = Working
KODI = Huh

I need to test it KODI again so that i can provide you with an accurate answer.
We tested a lot of NTFS hardware in Explorer without problems
Can you give me more Informations,We will fix it

I have a external 32GB harddrive plug in formatted NTFS and file explorer couldn't find it.
Also try 32GB USB drive NTFS and had the same issue.

Kodi does find the external NTFS drive.

In Kodi SETTINGS->File Manager->ADD SOURCE->BROWSE

Then you have locate MNT and the name of storage drive.

Is the any implementation ideas that you can provide to them.Big Grin

The kodi code is all public, but that is merely gui options and plumbing. See here.
They will need something on the kernel/firmware side to implement the framepacked modes.
It's all described in the specs, but it looks like a 1920x2205 resolution HDMI mode, with the right clocks and signalling.

Thanks for your help,We are checking it

Only 3 things to fix for now.

3D.ISO Frame-packing (High Priority)
23.976 (High Priority)
NTFS (Not very important to me)

That is it...
(2015-10-08, 08:56)Koying Wrote: [ -> ]2) Full SBS/TAB: The 2 full frames are rendered in software as one frame, producing 1920x2160 or 3840x1080. This combined frame is then passed to the TV which split the frame to produce 3D.
Problem here is that you must have 4K support both on the box and on the TV, and the TV must support this (as an example, my sony TV is 4K but doesn't support Full SBS/TAB)

Are you sure about this? A full TAB 3D video seems to play fine on Minix Z64-Android on a Sony 1080p TV. I just had to select TAB mode for the TV. Minix Z64-A has max. 1080p output.

Here is a Kodi debug log: http://xbmclogs.com/pos0ikipy

Here is the mediainfo for the video that I tested: http://pastebin.com/ue21XmNc

What I don't know is whether Kodi is downscaling the video to Half TAB or not. I couldn't find anything to that effect in the debug log.

1) 3D.ISO Frame-packing (High Priority)
2) 23.976 (High Priority)
3) 7.1 LPCM downmix to 2.0 LPCM (Secondary, but To do)
4) NTFS (Secondary, but To do) Not issue. IS OK

That is it all?
I see Zidoo made some new changes to their Kodi today
https://github.com/zidootech/zidoo-kodi-...zidoo-15.1
Would be interesting to test if someone can compile and upload it.

You must be Mike Smile

As I said in the review, it might be because of timing issue with Onkyo TX-NR636 AV receiver. Zidoo told me other people tested it without issues.
But in the video I shot, you can clearly see I played a video with Dolby Digital 7.1+ with the AV receiver without issues (so config is OK), and switching to a video with TrueHD 7.1 I had no audio at all with the HDMI icon blinking on my AV receiver display. Normally a reboot may fix this.

Yes!I'm Mike,you got meWink

The Dolby TrueHD 7.1 specker test has some problem playing in most media player i have tested.(Chromebox;VidOn box and even the Zidoo X6)

I will test the DTS HD MA 7.1 file that you tested tonight.

I see you doing well with your Audio testing nowBig Grin
