That was a quick release. Will wait for flashable zip release from Bob or HardwareGuru.

Restart your box and see if it works. Also, see in settings if the OS API is 15 or 19 in Netflix.

Restarted box and sound is normal again. But Netflix is same as with Beta 3, stutters from time to time and bad picture and subtext all they way too the left.

Could not find where to see which API Netflix app has.

quick question --did you do a complete erase etc or just update -- Finless always insists on a complete wipe to ensure no nasty bits of code left lurking about .

On right top corner, you can see something like ":" with 3 dots. Click on that. You will see settings and log out option. Select Settings. You can see different options like stream over wifi only (or something like that) and build details. Next to the build information there is "OS API"

Thx, it says API 15.

If using A2 airmouse sound sometimes goes too remote, same as beta 3. And i have checked "no sound trough usb".

Flashable ZIP coming soon! Still downloading the ROM.
