Zidoo recently has added a new Android TV box to their X media player family. The new X1 II edition is the second generation X1 product, and it is powered by the Rockchip RK3329 processor. Compared to the original X1 model, the Xidoo X1 II offers 70% increased performance and 120% improved decoding capabilities.

The device runs Android 4.4 with the usual Zidoo UI as found on all recent Zidoo devices such as Zidoo X6 Pro. The strength of RK3229 is that it can handle video with high bitrates (200 Mbps+). Some of the custom features include unified storage (single partition for apps and data), power is controlled via an MCU allowing for power on or off schedules and using the remote to turn on the device, OTA firmware upgrades, as well as ZDMC (based on Kodi) with audio HD pass-through with 7.1 channels, and the company’s own Zidoo Media Center and ZIDOO RC smartphone app for Android.

The 4K player is powered by Rockchip Quad-core 3229, which supports:

• H.265 10Bit hardware decoding
