Netflix HD?

[Ad0]

Do these devices work with Netflix HD? Or are they restricted by some stupid rule that Netflix has? How can I find out? I live in Europe (not UK) and can't access those test movies.

Thanks!

No

There is no fix for the foreseeable future? Like a spoof of the device id / name etc.

Nope!!!

Is it a license matter?

Wetek has managed to get HD netflix working. Im guessing since they are able to achieve itll only be a matter of time before other big names like MINIX, Tronsmart, Zidoo etc will hopefully have some sort of implementation.

Cool. But I guess Wetek will keep this information closely guarded. I guess they figured out a way to enable Widewine in an unlocked bootloader?

Yep I was shocked when I first heard the news too. Its about damn time though to be honest, netflix is a huge selling point for a tv boxes like these and them being limited to SD pushes a lot of potential buyers away. Pretty excited to see how the core turns out since ive heard good things about the play but have never used one myself.

Yeah, I was thinking of ditching the Beelink i68 because of this and rather just wait for NVidia Shield to reach my country...

If you can get a shield do it, itll be years before these types of Android Mini PCs catch up to that device in terms of hardware power. I own one myself and its my main unit for the living room and it has yet to disappoint.

You mean it doesn't do it???

Is there a android TV version of Netflix that runs on this box?
