Hi. I am considering the Z2600 to replace my current NVidia Shield 2019 Pro. I quite like the idea of the second HDMI output to connect to my Denon AVC-6500H and to connect the main HDMI out to my LG TV. Some questions please...
1. As I understand it, there is no way to have Disney+ / Netflix running on the Zidoo. I believe it can be added from the Play Store but may not support 4K HDR/DV/Atmos? No big issue as I can run them from the LG.
2. The Zidoo ought to support HDMI-CEC. Does it allow the LG TV remote for control? If I were to run Disney+ / Netflix on the TV, I would prefer to just use one remote instead of having two.
3. I believe the Zidoo will play 5.1 DSF files via the second HDMI to my Denon which dioes support multichannel DSD via HDMI.
4. Is it possible to use the Zidoo with an external USB DAC and run bitperfect audio? I currently have my NVidia Shield connected via USB to my DAC and use UAPP for bitperfect audio. It does work, but unfortunately, it is a pain to use!
5. If an external USB is indeed supported, can audio be sent simultaneously to both HDMI and the USB DAC? I would like to have a single interface to play my music instead of jumping between apps as I do now.
6. I believe the standard interface has issues with scraping information for both video and audio? I am currently running Emby on my NAS and Emby Android TV on my Shield. Apparently the Emby Android TV version does run on the Zidoo but needs to be set to external player to take advantage of the Zidoo playback engine? Also, apparently Jellyfin has a Zidoo build that works?
