I have MI Box 3, with pre installed Netflix TV application i can play upto 1080p resolution. Problem is when i install mobile apk to MI Box 3 i can only play upto 540p (960×540) resolution. (Checked with the test pattern episode in Netflix). MI Box is DRM L1 certified. I wanted to play mobile Netflix Application since i want to play US contents using smartdns and use my netflix content based internet package ( With latest version of netflix tv app doesn't support smartdns properly, when i enable smartdns with Netflix TV Application it start to bypass my content based internet plan). All things work fine with Netflix mobile application except the resolution. How can i fix that? Any ideas?

If I have downloaded movies on my nexus 7 2012, 4.4.4, how can I play them on my TV? I download movies that are a variety of formats. Usually play them on my tablet with MX, Diceplayer, or VLC. Is there anyway to get them on my TV? I have a 7 year old Panasonic plasma TH-50PX80U.
Chromecast. If you have hmdi.

i thought chromcast would play certain subscription channels. i want to play movies from my nexus 7 2012, that are playing video files that i copied to the device, and they are playing in vlc, mx, diceplayer, etc.
Chromecast can do this, you can stream directly from certain apps on your device, or from your chrome browser on any PC, to the chromecast via your wifi network.
There are also other apps that help extend this functionality on our device, such as localcast and allcast, both free in the play store.
I've streamed movies/tv from MX player to my chromecast using the allcast app and it worked pretty well.
There's also a mod available to stream your screen to the chromecast without needing an extra app; i've not had the chance to test this myself yet, but it's been reported to work well (here's the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/har...experimental-enable-mirroring-device-t2812193) .
This functionality is now native to the 2013 Nexus 7, but sadly not for grouper
The link "[EXPERIMENTAL] Enable Mirroring from any device" that you mentioned said that we need to have "root access on your device". How would I know if I have root access?
This method is supposed to work for Chromecast:

Unfortunately it doesn't work for me with the Shield, has anyone else had any luck?
There are some chrome extensions for this, but they all seem to render the video in a tab and then re-encode it before transmission, resulting in horrible quality. Dragging and dropping the video files into Stremio or Popcorn Time sometimes allows me to cast them. But that is neither clean nor reliable.
Download AirPlay
If all else fails, you could try going the other way - playing videos on your Shield from a Windows share or Plex server.
I've come up with an okay solution. If I install Kodi on the Shield and enable UPnP then I can cast natively from Windows, but only if Kodi is already running. It's not 100% reliable but it's better than what I had and it doesn't require any "hacks", just an install from the Play Store.
You can cast straight out of the Chrome browser if your video will play in it.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Thanks, this works great for .mp4, unfortunately .mkv and .avi aren't supported.
Using Plex is a good option, but Chrome's cast also has an (experimental) option to cast your screen. Click the little down arrow on the top right of the cast menu.
Videostream works amazing well

So I just got a Fire HD 8 and I figured that if I installed all the google packages and services that I could just download Netflix and it would work with my chromecast. This doesn't appear to be the case though. I read on another site that Amazon patched Fire OS to disable chromecast support for Netflix even when using the app directly from the Play Store. Will I need to root the device in order to restore functionality of my chromecast to Netflix?
I am having the same issue. I can cast Google Play Movies all right, but cannot cast Netflix.
Is there any solution for this? Preferably with no rooting involved.
Hey guys, Came across a great APK which allows you to access the entire playstore on your Android TV.
Yalp Store uses the same (protobuf) API the android Play Store app uses. It downloads apks directly from Google servers.
By default Yalp Store connects to Google services using a built-in account, so you do not have to own a Google account to use it. The only reason to use a live Google account is to access the paid apps you own.
Each time you log in a new Google Services Framework id (also known as device id) is generated using your device parameters.
For us to access all the apps all we need to do is spoof our device ID with another handset (Nexus / Pixel / Samsung tab etc).
You can see a demo of me installing the full version of Google Chrome and also Youtube TV direct on my 4K firestick
Do other apps see this as Play Services also? I have an app that apparently requires Google play services, and it seems that the other method for putting that on the Fire TV 4k is not working anymore.
That's not YouTube TV you are installing. That's YouTube for Android TV. It's just regular Youtube, and not the live TV and DVR version of YouTube TV.
stuck on "check Yalp Store Credential" and no way tonuse mine... sorry...
Hi,
I've just purchased a Xiaomi TV Stick (4k model) and tried to run my local TV service's IPTV app.
The app won't play videos and they said it's not Google Certified and that the fact that it's Play certified doesn't matter.
Is there a workaround? Is there a way to show this app another device ID?
Use kodi with m3u file pulled from service iptv app
