Hi all, Netflix and mycanal doesn't run because the ID of widevine is blacklist. How fix DRM problem?

By buying a Netflix Certified device.
If you have root, you can rename liboemcrypto.so and get Widevine L3 back with 480p Netflix.

Anyone using Plex on this box with this ROM? I'm facing (network?!) issues during starting / playback of movies from remote server.
The box is connected via LAN and also the internet connection is fast (50 MBit) and nearly not used, but Plex reports connection issues and stops playback.

If you are facing problems with the official Plex app for ATV, try installing Kodi and then its Plex addon. I'm using here without problems, the official app doesn't run very well on this device.

cheers

Same OEM images, but an update script that actually checks the build.prop on the system partition rather than the recovery partition. It will also allow you to downgrade.

That would be great, if you'd prepare an update for us! Thank you in advance!

@all
A question into the round: My Android video setting is 4K 30fps (due to the audio receiver limitation here). Does 4K Youtube playback work for you well?! Any video I start is running only few seconds and it's hanging then. Only killing the app helps.

thats issue with newer version youtube on this box, on the newer rom its fixed also you can use smart youtube app you can get it from and also plays HDR https://aptoide-tv.en.aptoide.com/

Working on it. I had to do TWRP builds for the new S905X2 boxes this weekend. (Someone sent me hardware, and that always gets priority.)

Me too. I got error since yesterday.

new stock rom was released a few weeks ago that lets you use netflix, not sure what resolution though: https://forum.freaktab.com/forum/tv-...oid-7-1/page17

hopefully Guest will update this rom using the new image.

I haven't modified anything dealing with the framerate switching. It's the same as with the underlying OEM firmware.

Hi, I have question for Polish Mecool users. Did Ipla apk (TV live channels) stop working for you last week? I know it uses DRM and the problem appeard at the same time as Netflix problem.
Interesting is that with the last problem (about 3 months ago) with Netflix related to DRM, Ipla apk worked OK. So, is there any way to force to work live channels on Ipla apk with fake Android TV ROM?

As far as I know, previously it was a Netflix-connected problem. Now this is a problem connected with a certificate (from Google). That's why all DRM secured services are off - Netflix, Showmax, etc.

Dear Guest , in this ROM's setting options I could not find any 'Playback Setting' visible on the Setting List as in the first page screenshot. So this ROM currently cannot use any type of 'Auto Frame-rate Switching' ?

Mine stopped working too I hope we get an another drm fix...
