In addition, the media player supports most digital audio and video formats, including all modern video standards such as HEVC, H.265, with Ultra HD 4K upscaling (up to 3840x2160 / 4096x2160) which results in a crisp and crystal-clear picture with four times the resolution of full HD.

The Zappiti Player 4K Duo is equipped with a hot swap internal SATA HDD 3.5" dual rack for huge total capacity (up to 16 TB). It is also equipped with a USB 3.0 port and an SD memory card slot. The Zappiti Player 4K Duo features powerful Wi-Fi with two antennas and Ethernet gigabit network capability.

This media player is also compatible with Zappiti Media Center v4, the most relevant media center system ever.
