Posterwall (HT4.0) First Part

-

 


PosterWall (HT4.0) is part of the Zidoo platform, this movie poster management system is designed to exploit the maximum possibilities of their devices and thus see your movies in the best possible conditions.

--------

Zidoo offers us a system for managing our video library that combines a modern interface with many customization options while maintaining an ease of use that will appeal to the uninitiated who are new to the Zidoo ecosystem.

Here is a photoshop montage of the main page ''complete'' Posterwall (HT4.0), as you see it can be customized according to your priorities.



-----------------------------------

Here are some videos showing different options available with PosterWall, there are many others that I let you discover by yourself.

I hope this will give a good idea about the possibilities of Posterwall (HT4.0) for new or future users of Zidoo devices.

I put a little explanatory comment for each video, I am not an expert, so please bear with me.

Thank you

Note
I don't have the video files on the video, I used photoshop.


-----------------------------------
How do I scan my sources ?
-----------------------------------

At the first start, on the main page, HT4.0 will propose you to add sources.
Select your directories and it will start scanning them.


--------

Note :

If your movies already have an NFO file created with Kodi, you can select the following option.

''preferentially parse NFO files''

(The NFO created by Kodi/ZDMC works with HT 4.0)


--------

If any video files were not recognized at the end of your source, click on the "Unmatched" widget and the unrecognized files will be there.

By using the POP MENU button on the remote and selecting Re-Match, you will be able to manually search by entering the movie title.


--------

Once your sources scanned and your unmatched made, I strongly suggest you use the option ''Export''.
By doing so your posters, wallpapers and NFO of each of your movies will be saved.


--------

If you followed my GIFs above, you should have the main Posterwall page by default as below


--------

If you click on a movie poster, the movie information page appears, the information is clear and concise, I really like it.

On the right side, you have 4 icons.

- PLAY, to start the movie

- BD, to use the navigation menu of an ISO/BMDV.

- Trailers, to see the trailers (if available)

- Favorites, to put your favorite movies aside and be easily accessible.


--------

Your movie collections are automatically grouped when HT4.0 scans your sources, you can then access them using the shortcut available by moving on the right of the screen or with the ''collection'' widget on the main page.


--------

If movies are not associated in their collection, you can add them manually.


--------

With this first part I hope to have helped you and answered some of your questions even though it's still brief.

For the next part, I will show you how I do to have my TV shows available with Posterwall.

3 solutions to use the ''SAMBA SERVER'' option

3 solutions to have access to your Zidoo from your PC with the option ''SAMBA SERVER'' of your Zidoo device First part Here is my way to have the ZD_SAMBA available on my Network page. It's not recommended because of the lack of security as we use SMB1, but on my private network I don't think it's a problem, plus the performance would be better using SMB2... But so far all my video files and my test files like jellyfish are running without any problem. Open ''Windows features'' Go to ''SMB1.0/CIFS files sharing support'' and activate this function Reboot the computer Go to the ''Network'' page and do a refresh if needed ZD_SAMBA will appear and you will have access to your Zidoo and your storage units connected to it Obviously do not forget to activate the ''SAMBA SERVER'' in the options of Zidoo ​ ​ That's it & that's all 2nd part Here is another way to do it, it is proposed by Zido

  I present you the HT4.0 Widgets, we don't talk much about them and yet they are very useful. If you want to have categories such as ''Cartoon'' or ''Family'' or ''Documentary'' that you have created yourself and you want to see them in the main page, Zidoo offers this possibility with its ''Widgets''. --------- Here is an example I created 2 folders ''Concert'' and ''Manga'' in one of my sources and I want to have on the main page of HT4.0. it's easy to do, c lick on the widget with the "+" symbol to add a new widget by choosing a folder in one of your sources. In my GIF below, I add the folder ''concert'' and ''Manga'' and 2 new icons appear with a logo which is not to my taste. --------- No problem, by pressing the key ''Menu'' of the remote a pop up appears allowing you to change icon. Here's how to change using the &
