paco paquito Posted September 27 Author Share Posted September 27 Thank you very much for this feedback, Dolby Vision is a license you have to pay to be able to broadcast it for HDR 10 + it is free set up by a Samsung consortium.....and others to compete with Dolby I think that the 3588 cpu can support them very well it is a shame that the powerstation is not these video standards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nbs. Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 You think it can support it after being told it doesn't support it? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emporium Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 (edited) Lol.. Zidoo may seem to support on paper. Question is, does Zidoo support YOU after sale, when it does not work as advertised. If you use something like Plex, enjoy trying to get your Zidoo working as expected. And it is radio silence on their part and even to try to fix stuff (that is advertised as supported), everything they recommend is a "workaround" instead of fixing it. And truth be told, 90% of users would not even use those features anyhow or have the rest of the equipment to take advantage of it. It is for about the 10% of users, but most of them have probably already realized that it is all about compromises with streaming boxes. Like I've always said, there is no PERFECT box. They all have weaknesses, flaws and issues. And if anyone tells you otherwise, don't believe them. As an example of weaknesses, The 9x you mentioned only has 2GB of ram, which will be very limiting for some newer apps, and the fact that it only has BT 4.2 could be a dealbrealer for those with bluetooth soundbars and headphones. Everything is about compromises, depending on what is important to you. Where a company shines, is on their support on issues which they advertise as supported. Obviously this box is not for you. Move on. Edited September 28 by Emporium 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paco paquito Posted September 30 Author Share Posted September 30 I apologize if my comments were perceived as an advertising approach, this is not at all the case. I cited this brand, because I know it, I could have cited others, plus it has a big community behind it and good developers. I just wanted to know the video standards of the Powerstation, because it is true that the technical description is a little limited. This is why I made a comparison with other boxes, regardless of the brand. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emporium Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 The specs were given to you, including the datasheet. You did not need to mention/compare to any other boxes. And even when you do, what is written on paper and what they actually deliver and under what conditions are 2 different things. Like I mentioned, no box is perfect for all situations. Every box has it's strengths and weaknesses and compromises are always made. Choices are made for reasons that none of us can speculate (cost, complexity, strategic partnerships, etc..). And we'll probably never know since most are under NDA. You take take the info you are given, and you make a choice that is right for you depending on your needs and desires.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
