    Trebor said Netflix is not working now, maybe a couple of more months until Mecool gets the blessing from Netflix. He said Amazon Prime plays, but did not say what resolution. But the main requirement is met, Google certified AND HDCP 2.2.

        Canal Digital is a cable TV provider in Norway. They launched a tv box (DVB-S) 6 months ago or so. It has all DRM certifications needed, but Netflix isn't working. They have been saying since Christmas that they think they'll get a deal. Google cast works, but not the Netflix app, and not casting Netflix. It is a shame. I would be skeptical about this box if you need 4K Netflix. I don't care that much since my Samsung Tizen plays Netflix great, but to those who need it; think about it twice.

          The pertinent question here is if Mecool the company can get their M8S Pro L to play netflix on HD, why can't they simply do what they did on this particular box?

            Point well taken. It probably takes longer to get Netflix certified legally.

                    The question is... really this new box actually is better than the Pro L?

                          That would be what your needs are. IF you NEED Chromecasting, then, yes it would be better than the "L". IF they can provide Netflix in 4k, then YES, it would be better than the "L". Otherwise probably NOT. There may be other benefits, but not sure what. Or for some, if it supports Amazon Prime streaming media.

                          I only purchased this device to if it indeed was Google certified and supported HDCP 2.2. Probably not a very good reason for most sane people.

                              What fun would that be??? I have given away all my devices that JUST work, too boring to use.

                                LOL
                                I just bought a refurbished one and lucked out. It actually works with vader and eternal. People warned me it won't work with IPTV.
                                I still have the H96 with a fan . But, it's just too noisy .
                                FTV2 has got to be the best box , dollar for dollar, ever made .
