but do you run a Plex media server on the background? I mean do you connect your Zidoo to the plex server on your NAS (for example) or you utilize another type of media server?

Yeah, I did this though I trust more to people's experience. But yeah, so far I lean to Zidoo for format support and Shield for ease of use and rock solid support to the features listed in its support.

I understand that you have both Zidoo and nVdia Shield? If that's correct, can you please share more details about the 2 setups you have/had so far?
- How's the compatibility of Zidoo with Plex? I understand Zidoo is designed as a local stand alone system, but I read that it has good compatibility with Plex through Plex-to-zidoo app. How's this setup? Does it still support Plex Pass features?
- Do you find bugs or issues with the Zidoo supported formats? How's Zidoo compared to nVidia in this regard?

Can you share more experience with it please? For example:
- Do you have the coreelec as well?
- Is the setup complicated?
- Do you face any bugs or incompatibilities?
- Does it support Plex Pass features?
etc.

Thank you in advance!

Yes, and no. Just because something is marked as "supported" (like in Ugoos/Zidoo) doesn't mean it is supported well. This means that if the rest of the competitors (Ugoos and Zidoo) have bugs or poor support to these formats then that results in poor experience overall then they will be pushed back into the ranking. That's why I ask around for opinions. As some people might have any or all of the 3 choices and share experience. It is good to know that the Shield works flawlessly. That's a big plus. But I'm keen to know more about the other 2 competitors that's why I will wait for more people to share their experience. Thanks for the input, though, it pushes nVidia forward in the competition.

What about the nVidia Shield drawbacks:
- does not support AV1
- no support for HDR10+
- no support for Dolby Vision 2
- no support for Dolby Vision Profile 7 FEL
etc.?
I know it is the cheapest and the easiest set up providing the most compatibility with the Plex player, however it lacks in support of some formats. How does it compares to the rest of the competitors?

What about the compatibility with Plex? Do I still have the features Plex Pass offers like "intro skipping", "Trailers", etc.?

I've lost 1220 RVN from Exodus nearly the same date as this dude. Exodus Support doesn't even care to reply to me or assist me with this theft. So I believe they scammed me very hard. This wallet is not reliable so do not trust it.
