Does 3D MVC playback require those hacks or is it still possible with what we have?

RE: Xiaomi 4K HDR 'Mi Box' (Android TV set-top box) - jakejm79 - 2016-10-24 I believe there are server side checks by Netflix to verify what device is connected and the DD+ stream is only made available to whitelisted devices using the AndroidTV (leanback) version of the Netflix app (as far as Android boxes are concerned anyway). Though the check may just be to see if the device is running the Android TV OS vs. regular Android, the assumption being that all 'certified' AndroidTV boxes are capable of DD+. RE: Xiaomi 4K HDR 'Mi Box' (Android TV set-top box) - wesk05 - 2016-10-24 @wrxtasy is probably referring to the fact that you can mod plain Android firmware and change it into Android TV with TV Input Framework, Leanback Launcher and then you can install the "ninja" version of Netflix apk to get Dolby Digital Plus. (as has been done with WeTeK Play 2). RE: Xiaomi 4K HDR 'Mi Box' (Android TV set-top box) - wrxtasy - 2016-10-24 Koying already had the answer in the previous page. (2016-10-23, 16:38)Koying Wrote: Mmm... I don't think there is any decoding involved, there. As far as I could notice, DD+ and Stereo are just 2 different streams from NetflixIts the whitelisted Netflix client that decides which Audio to use. But I have learned that for 4K Netflix you need to be using Android Marshmallow Firmware due to additional Widevine DRM requirements that were added to 6.0. RE: Xiaomi 4K HDR 'Mi Box' (Android TV set-top box) - mutagen - 2016-10-27 I do not think that my box is compatible with netflix HD or 4k streams, yo can check their site an see the list of compatible devices, even if any android tv box has the correct hardaware and softaware is up to netflix to allow the device to be compatible through their certification proses, and the vast majority do not pass RE: Xiaomi 4K HDR 'Mi Box' (Android TV set-top box) - garvani - 2016-10-28 (2016-10-27, 20:13)mutagen Wrote: I do not think that my box is compatible with netflix HD or 4k streams, yo can check their site an see the list of compatible devices, even if any android tv box has the correct hardaware and softaware is up to netflix to allow the device to be compatible through their certification proses, and the vast majority do not pass I just went to check the devices section of netflix and it has been seriously chopped down since the last time i checked. No mention of roku, amazon fire etc under streaming media players, no mention of any xbox under gaming consoles. Im almost positive a month ago the mi box was listed on that page. (Edit: just realised it redirects me to an Australian site, might be different for the US site) Mutagen if your talking about the Mi box it is netflix HD and 4k certified. If your talking about some other amlogic android box then no its not. |
