Request : Casting Netflix to Other Non HDCP enabled Display - Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1 Questions & Answers

When I am casting Netflix, it is only casting audio, with black screen. Rigorous net searching gave me some hints like disabling HDCP over wlan or removing that check from Netflix might do the trick, but I am unable to achieve the casting. Can anyone kindly help?

I have encountered no such problems. Have used YouTube, SonyLIV, VLC. Though, I am facing another issue. My cast session automatically expires anywhere within 5-10 minutes and I'm unable to figure out as to why is it happening. It has been bugging me since v309, did not try cast before v309 as I made it my top priority to get the phone up to date after unboxing it. Currently on the latest v316.

It happens with Netflix only. All other apps work fine.

First time I am hearing about this. Can you kindly elaborate? What is widevine L1 ? How to check/enable in phone?
And Netflix is HD in my phone.
Edit : Installed DRM info in my phone. It supports Widevine DRM L1.

Yes that's what's it.
Thanks buddy.
Nice to have widevine L1 on a budget phone like this. None of the xiaomi phones have it, most of the Huawei phones don't have it either, my ZTE Axon 7 doesn't also.

[Q] Netflix on Simple Mobile

Hello to all
I've recently flashed my MyTouch 4G with the latest build of Cyanogenmod 7 and have my carrier (simple mobile) working with no problems whatsoever, up until Netflix gives me errors such as "There is a problem connecting to Netflix. Please try again (13005)." When I checked it out on my PC and on my PS3, everything was working fine and was able to stream correctly, but not on my phone. I checked out most of the netflix topics that covered this problem, and even went so far as to go to Netflix help with the error code, but it doesn't even show up in there systems. Does anyone know how I can fix this? I tried using the Android Marketplace apk, and a different Netflix APK that dealt with screen rotation, but the same results happen with no streaming. Thanks to anyone who can help.
Just tried it with the latest Netflix on Simple Mobile and it's working fine
i'm also on 7.1 cm stable.... with t-mobile..... issue here is that i have sound but no video.... my guess is that netflix is not supporting android version 2.3.7 ... maybe that is the issue for you too
my netflix works fine and i use simple mobile...

Having an issue with Worms 2 over WiFi

Hi all,
I'm having an issue with Worms 2, basically whenever I try to play multiplayer via Wifi I get one of several errors, either it won't connect at all, it will disconnect mid game or it won't show any active games. Now I've emailed Team 17 support and he assures me there's many active games open right now, but I virtually never see any open, and if I do it's usually 1 or 2 max. I'm guessing there's something wrong with either my WiFi or a setting on my tablet, maybe even an app I have installed. This is my first tablet so I'm very new to all of this so maybe it's just something simple.
Any suggestions are welcome.
Nexus 7 32GB 2013.

Same for me. Team17 support said they're aware of the problems although they don't seem to know what's causing it so I'm not that hopeful that it will be fixed.
I also have another weird bug, the first time I load up the game the first game will work fine (if it connects), but any subsequent games will hang on waiting for players until I close the game and re-open it. It seems multiplayer is just an absolute mess, and that's the only reason I bought it. On the rare occasions I actually manage to play a full game it's really fun.

Strange issue with YouTube app..

I've noticed that while watching videos on the YouTube app it takes 20 seconds to start streaming in 1080p HD quality on my device. My friend has an S5 and his starts streaming HD instantly. Why does it take exactly 20 seconds to start streaming HD on only my device? It's fully stock, never been rooted so i really am baffled as to why only i am having this issue? If anyone has any idea or solution, please, enlighten me! Many thanks in advance.
Are both of you under same network service?

Yes, we are both on the giffgaff network. Surely i would have thought the network has nothing to do with how long the video takes to start streaming in HD since i am using WiFi and not mobile data? Even when I'm streaming HD videos via mobile data/4G, it still takes exactly 20 seconds until the quality updates to HD... I'm completely baffled by it all and I'm sure no doubt everyone who reads my post will be too! ?

5GHz wi-fi DFS?

Since it's 2015, I was just wondering: Does this Nexus FINALLY support 5GHz wi-fi DFS channels?
For anybody who might be confused: the question means whether it supports more than the four basic 5GHz channels. If yes, then: me = :victory:
Thanks! :highfive:
(hope smbd. knows the answer to this as it hasn't been asked yet... might need to bump this up to the top a couple of times otherwise)
has anybody been able to test this yet?

Well, no one has it yet.
According to iFixit, the Nexus 6P contains the broadcom BCM4358 chip which does support up to 80mhz channelization according to the info at the links below.
https://www.broadcom.com/press/release.php?id=s868805

I am currently testing a new wireless deployment and the Nexus 6P is one of my client test devices. I will try to report back once testing is complete.
Sorry to revive an old thread, but any news on this?
My 6P connected to DFS channels fine.

I just tested and it's working fine. NEXUS 6P 6.0 android

After upgrading to 7.0 or above. Nexus 6P has major issues with respect to WiFi services:
1) Intermittent connect drop
2) Unable to find/connect 5Ghz band services on the mobile device.
As per multiple fourms if someone says, WiFi is working in safe mode or reconnect/re-configure the WiFi services. All those bunch, do not have a solution to this issue.
I neither wish to step on to some other device/make, nor I think this issue could not get fixed. This is an amazing phone with a black spot (WiFi bug) on it. I would really appreciate, if google overcome this issue so that we can enjoy using the device and Google services.

TMobile OP6T 480p YouTube playback

I have this strange issue.
Any video I start playing on YT it always uses 480p resolution.
I'm at home on WiFi.
I can switch to 1080p, but this has to be done every time a new video is playing.
Any ideas?

Depends on what plan you have. I thought T-Mobile limited video to 480p? If that's the case and I believe it is, then you will only be able to watch 480p video while on T-Mobile LTE. That also explains why you can switch to 1080p when on WiFi.

As he stated, he is on home WiFi not T mobiles LTE. So the issue is not with T Mobile.

Could be your youtube settings set to based on your network speed, thus giving you 480p?

I looked through the available YT settings, and could only find the download quality settings, but not regular default resolution playback settings.
Are there settings in YT for resolution that is default when playing back videos?
Are you bootloader unlocked and rooted??
I have the same issue with OP6T bought directly from OnePlus. There are several threads about this on OnePlus forum and the problem is not only with their latest phone.It seems this issue has been there for months but I found a solution. I installed YT Vanced and all is good again. BTW I'm locked not rooted.
