Like all Android TV Netflix Apps on other Android TV Hardware platforms - you have to be HDMI connected to a DD+ capable Audio receiver for 5.1 HDMI Audio from Netflix, otherwise expect 2.0 PCM audio only.

So i got my M8S Pro L and it's pretty cool. However I have a few little oddities and I thought I'd ask here because you guys seem more knowledgeable than most sources I'm seeing.
- What is the best place to look for support? About the only forum I see that is likely, is freaktab forum, is that the best place to be asking questions? The particular S90x / mecool forum doesn't have even 3 pages of posts.
- Does this thing have a microphone? Mine acts like it thinks it does, but it never hears anything, this is while connected to my receiver via HDMI.
- Google play does not automatically update it's apps (I even toggled the setting), even after clearing google play data. In fact, the apps don't even show up in google play 'my apps' until I find them by searching manually and update them. For example - youtube, netflix, etc. I'm concerned that things like google play services probably won't be updated. Play music doesn't show up in the app list even when installed!
- I can cast to it from my Samsung tablet, but neither of my Axon 7's will - one just silently fails and one says something like 'error connecting to M8S Pro L'. When I look at the M8S pro in google home, no settings are available from the ... top right drop down.
Thanks!
