I think this is not possible because the Netflix App used is a patched version for Tablet Devices. The Netflix App with the TV Interface and Media Controls will not happen officially for the PPX.
That’s good. Philips Projection has received Android TV license now after 18 months of negotiations. Netflix negotiation still in progress. Sadly it’s too late for PicoPix Max as it’s not possible to back port to a released device, mostly due to licensing requirement.
Hi @tpetrilli unfortunately I cannot give roadmap info now. You will hear about it through official PR channels (here we are some people from the team helping users). However PicoPix Max will stay AOSP, it cannot be converted to Android TV. Licensing terms don’t allow it and even if it did, the SoC vendor doesn’t support it. I wish this had happened 1 year ago when we started.
As I’ve said many times The only way you can get Play Store and other official Google services (including built-in Chromecast and Widevine L1), on a non-touchscreen device, is Android TV. It’s not possible to get GMS etc. on a projector using AOSP. In fact the Widevine department went out of their way to make an exception for us and our PicoPix Max backers!
