Does this mean that the AFTV Cube is not capable of playing such a file too as it is runing in 32bit mode too?
I'm unsure, I've not seen any negativity regarding the FireTV Cube so it may not just be the use of 32 bit Andoid but how well the OS & SoC work together when the OS is 32 bit. It could be that the Nvidia Tegra SoC just doesn't work as well under a 32 bit OS since that's the major difference between the Tube anf the Pro, and the Tube seems much less able from reports. So perhaps Amazon did a better job at pairing the FireTV OS to the SoC's they use since I think FireTV OS is ciurrently 32 bit only.
