Is anyone able to cast netflix on tv using redmi2? which rom?
I'm trying since i was using miui, with the custom roms i always get black screen , sound and subtitles, but no image.
when i was using miui the image appeared still (on pause) but after play went black again.
I also have another application from my pay tv that allows on demand shows, movies, documentaries, series and happens the same... blank screen when i make it play on tv thru casting.
I'm right now using RR Nougat last version 5.80.

Hi, did you solve the problem? It's happening to me, too, and I can not find a solution.
I'm seeing this reported on various phones and various ROMs, rooted or not, since at least 2014, and nobody has a fix. Similar Reddit threads give clearing all Netflix app data or reinstalling the app as solutions, but on those threads the reported problem was not being able to start casting the screen at all.
I also have this everything-casts-but-the-video variant of the problem on my Redmi 3 with CM 12.1 and haven't found a solution. Tried reinstalling the app only to find that newer versions are incompatible with my phone and can't even be installed off the store (had to go back to v4.16.1 via apkmirror). Tried setting Force GPU Rendering and Disable HW Overlays in Developer Options, tried tweaking the screen DPI, tried streaming to a Miracast-capable dongle rather than directly to my Samsung TV - nothing worked.

Google just released the new update for Youtube app in Android Market.
After I updated the app on my Nook Color, running on CM 7 RC, I found that Youtube app failed to load any clip at all.
Does anyone have this problem? I also have Nexus 1 which is updated as well but doesn't have such a problem.
Any ideas? Is it possible to downgrade Youtube by uninstalling it?
** My Nexus 1 recently has a new Market app but my NC is yet not upgraded. Is it going to be a big matter for a rooted NC?

I have the same problem, it keeps loading and never actually loads the vids. So good thing i made a back up before upgrading. I cleared app data, wiped dalvik/cache and still a no go. It seems other phones are also having problems with the update. I
All these new google apps are messed up -_-

Working OK here; CM7 nightly (151).
Hmmm. I just realized that Google AD, which plays right before the clip, is loaded and played. However, the clip I touched in is having a problem: "There was a problem while playing. Touch to Retry."
In the moment the HQ button appears, unchecked it. Videos will play in low quality fine. Waiting on a fix.

Reading the rating comments for the Youtube app in the market, it appears that this problem isn't limited to the NC and is occuring on several other platforms also.
I have only been able to get 1 video to play correctly. While watching my router's status lights, I can see that the videos are downloading but all I get is the spinny arrow or the "Touch to retry" error.
I just noticed when I went to the market website that Youtube is now listed as not compatible. Adobe flash as well. Funny when you consider they are both part of the stock setup. It's pretty clear Google is blocking apps not so much based on the device but whether it is rooted or not. Question is, all rooted devices or only those with CM7 on them?

Same here I saw a new YouTube update on my G2, this morning, and when I went to update it on my nook, it wouldn't allow me to update.

Another thing I noticed with the Youtube update is the restriction of certain videos from being played on mobile devices. Luckily, I had a backup of a pre-screwy Youtube and market update sd image and things are running fine again.
It really makes me wonder what is going on behind the scenes at google to cause them do all of this.
Yeah I'm having the same problem. Reverted to a backup and it's working again. This is on the latest release candidate.

It's working fine for me. I even played a HQ vid with on problem. I will say that when I clicked on one of the front page videos it just sat and spun its wheels but when I searched for something it played without any delay.
What version of CM7 is everyone using?
I am running 7.0.3 and was having problems with the updated youtube.
7.1.0-RC1 here.
yeah, youtube 2.2.16 will not work on my nook, but works fine on my htc aria. not sure why
nook: cm7 n155 / aria: cm7 n162
Same here. Running cm7 rc1 off of sd card. Some videos ran fine others didn't. Revered to old version on backup.

Nightly 151 off sd card here. Everything working fine with updated youtube. Every vid I tried played ok.
Same problem here with YouTube 2.2.16 not playing High Quality (HQ) videos on the Nook Color running CM7. Those of you who say it's not playing anything, your YouTube app may default to HQ video. As soon as the video downloading spinning circle appears on the screen, tap the screen in landscape mode to see the toggle switch to turn HQ off for that video. The low quality video should load up after you turn off HQ.
Anyway, last night I remembered that in the early days of rooting the NC we had the same problem with HQ video in the YouTube app. I tried the fix for that old problem last night and it worked on 2.2.16. All I did was sign out of my YouTube account, force stopped the app, cleared cache and data, and rebooted the NC. After reboot open the YouTube app, accept the TOS, and it should work. When everyone had this problem earlier this year, it would sometimes come back and we'd do the routine again to make it go away. I don't know what eventually solved the problem last time (an update fixed it?), but maybe the same behind-the-scenes permanent fix will solve the problem with 2.2.16.

Tried this - some videos are playing now in HQ but not others. Strange. For example I selected one artist and two of her videos would play but two wouldn't. After rollback to 2.1.6 they all play.
When I have a situation like this where the updated version of an app works much worse than the prior (Skype, Okcupid notably), I roll back and then use Titanium to force-detach it from the Market.
Even if there wasn't a problem playing videos with the new update, I still would roll back to the previous version.
I find it irritating as hell that this new version of the Youtube player has incorporated the "do not play on mobile devices" block on some videos. I did not like this "feature" on the Youtube Ipodtouch app and never could figure out the reasoning behind it.
It seems that an Android port of KOTOR was released. It lists full HID controller support. Has anyone tried sideloading this on the Ouya?

I tried. The app will show the splash screen and crash. It isn't a matter of it not being from the play store either because I have the play store on my ouya. A shame really because I bought it in hopes of getting it on ouya. The only other device of mine it works with is a galaxy s3 with a busted screen.

I tried sideloading it after I installed AOSP 5.0 - Good news. It launches the game. I'm still having trouble with AOSP, so i didn't do much, but it seemed to play ok.
EDIT: I think i figured out why it crashes at startup for other roms. So when i got it running initially on AOSP, it had my ouya plugged into a 1920x1200 monitor and i don't think it knew what to do, so it was running at like 640x480. I then plugged in my ouya to a tv and it started at 1080p. When I tried running Kotor again, it crashed at startup as reported by others.
I added the following to the ini file in /sdcard/Android/data/com.aspyr.swkotor/files/swkotor.ini under [Graphics Options]
Height=480
Width=840
This will allow the game to run. I played for a while, and it seemed ok. It is a bit slow, so we may want to try a lower resolution. The ouya may be getting too dated to play this very well.
One problem I ran into is that the ouya controller doesn't seem to be mapped correctly on AOSP. the triggers were mapped to look left and right as well as switch characters and pause. You have to hold the left trigger half way down to stop the camera from moving and hope it doesnt pause the game or switch characters while you are playing haha. It would be frustrating playing for too long without a fix.
Running fine on cm11 port. Hope this helps.

I'm unable to play video on my G2 using the DishAnywhere app. At one point I managed to play SD video (once) but have since been able to get it working. All I get is a black screen when I hit play. I've experienced this on several different lollipop roms. A search on The Google says that the app was incompatible with lollipop until December but sounds like it's been working fine for others since. Any idea whether this is a known issue or if there is a fix? The rest of the app works great....just blanks on the video....
Thanks for any help
Is anybody using Dish Anywhere to watch shows on a lollipop rom?
I'm having a weird issue with Youtube. If I click on the tab for subscriptions, it crashes every time. I've tried clearing data/cache and "uninstalling it" back to the version that comes with the Mediapad ... no luck.
Mobile site subscriptions works fine. Videos otherwise play fine in the app.
Anyone?
The subscription tab is working fine for me at my 325 dpi setting. The new Kodi (v17), on the other hand, crashes for me every time so I had to side load an older version. You might try that with YouTube to see if it is just the newest version causing you problems. YouTube is a "special app", so I think the normal install of an apk will not work. There is a thread on XDA for an add-free version of youtube that has instructions for replacing the YouTube app and maybe even the add-free version will work for you. If you do replace your app, don't forget to turn off automatic updates in the play store.
Hmmm, I'm not running the DPI hack...
It's crashing for me as well, I'm using the lowest size setting within Display.
Confirmed bug. If I switch to Settings->Display->View Mode->Medium, Youtube subscriptions no longer crash.
anyone has resolved? I can't use subscription tab in youtube...
Is Netflix TV working for anyone else on the Shield Tablet? It was working great up until a week ago. Now all I get is the below on every stream on Netflix. It doesn't even attempt to buffer. Instant error. I'm on the Official Nvidia Tablet 5.4 firmware with darcy (Shield Android TV) build.prop spoof. Wiped app data + cache with no result. Reinstalled apk... Nothing works.
"This title is not available to watch instantly. Please try another title. - 1044"
tvq-pb-101(2.10.0)
Netflix version: 7.3.2-3539 R
Has Netflix blacklisted our device, added checks to prevent build.prop spoofing, upped firmware version requirement, or included security patch check?
Edit: Just to be clear. I am referring to the Android TV version of Netflix. It works, or atleast it did, providing you spoof your model, name and device along with adding and setting ro.nrdp.modelgroup and ro.nrdp.audio.otfs properties in build.prop. Anyway, It seems to be broken now.
Anyone else with a similar setup, we need more reports on this issue?
Just tried The-Saint2k's lineage 14.1 also... It's broken just the same there to. Same error. Both with darcy and foster spoof in build.prop.
Has anyone found a solution?

Perhaps it's just the latter builds of netflix then. I use APK updater to keep my Netflix up-to-date from APK Mirror. I literally didn't change anything else other then updating my APK. I'll try 7.26.1 build 27 and see whats happening.
I'm getting a newer version warning, but play store tells me my Android version is too old. So it's an older version...

I don't think you're using the Netflix TV version? Am I right? I can't find version 7.26.1... Either way, I downgraded a few APK's back and it still doesn't work. I noticed it stopped working when they started to use expanding video/film tiles on their front page. Anyway, it's looking broken to me.
No, it's the regular tablet version I'm using

I'm not surprised that one still works . I much prefer to use the Android TV version though out of convenience. I'm more familiar with it, and it's a breeze navigating the UI with a controller when connected to a TV. Besides, does the standard Netflix apk support HD resolution on our device without spoofing?
It's starting to look like it's the end of the road for the Android TV version of Netflix on the Shield Tablet. Boo!
I'll keep digging. I'll update this thread when I reach the otherside.
I really thought more people would be sounding off about this. I mean, I know this device is old... But I can't be the only one using it for streaming. People spoofing Nvidia Shield TV and using Netflix TV. Speak up? Please aha :crying:
I've noticed Kodi Netflix plugin users are also mentioning a similar occurrence. Is it working for anyone still? Be interested in knowing your setup.
Hi guys, I have a stock k1 tablet, and recently Netflix, and other legal video apps are stopped working.. They all give something likeb "error code xx occurred" I think it's maybe some DRM issue or something? My own video's on plex and kodi are running fine.
K1 with stock rom ( android 7.0)

The exact thing just happened to me a few days ago too. I posted about this in another section of these forums, but no luck. My K1 is stock 7.0, not rooted, and suddenly can't play purchased movies on Youtube, Google Play Movies, Fandango, Movies Anywhere, and VUDU. I have factory reset multiple times with no fix. I have also downgraded back to Lollipop and they still won't play. Tried Marshmallow, and no luck either. It's a DRM problem, but I don't have a clue what has happened. At least now I know it's not something wrong with my device itself since you're having the same problem. Please keep me posted if you get yours working and what you did to fix it. My guess is the K1 has been blacklisted by Google Widevine DRM. But why???

That was exactly my thought too... They've blacklisted our device killing L1 widevine support. Unless L1 Widevine support is limited by security patch level now... I know a couple of 3rd party netflix plugins also took a hit recently to. Their issue section is riddled with similar errors. Seems like HD streaming services, or solely google; are really stirring up the pot. Either way... This sucks.
Well, its not just netflix. Regional streaming services are not working as well. Just throwing error. Netflix just stay on netflix logo tho.
Gladly, and sadly.. I'm not the only one. I think it's a DRM issue too.. Because all of my legal subscription based stuff stopped working.
Netflix
Npo (Dutch app)
Ziggo TV (Dutch app)
KPN itv (Dutch app)
Normal YouTube videos works. But they don't have DRM... So sad.. I need some time, but when I have I gonna try a custom rom. Maybe that helps?
I have the same issue, both The Criterion Channel and MUBI will no longer stream on my device as of last week. I'm on original Shield Tablet, using 14.1-20180922-NIGHTLY-shieldtablet. Originally, I thought it was just the Criterion app, but after dealing with support, I found out that the current HDCP level is reporting as "disconnected", support telling me that was the reason. I wasn't convinced because streaming had stopped working immediately after having successfully watched 2 movies and then trying a third. I tried using MUBI to see if that was working, but that is broken too. Turns out, it was the DRM issue.

Custom ROM's won't fix the issue; I've tried already -.-
You're definitely not wrong though... So very very sad. The whole reason I brought this tablet was solely for streaming. I wasn't expecting L1 widevine support to end. I think we need to make some noise over at the Nvidia forums...
Just registered to see what could be done about this very issue. I am currently not a happy bunny about a device I was using solely for streaming while on the couch. I am not even sure I want to mock about with the software to get it working again.

Unfortunately, there is nothing us users can do to get it working again. It has Widevine L1 version 1.0, but current Widevine L1 is version 14 or higher. Not sure, but I think version 1.0 is much older than Android 7. Don't know why such an old version is used, but that's probably why it is Widevine blocked now. I've found that the Google Play Movies & TV app (now Google TV) will still play your movies, but in SD. MoviesAnywhere will play in SD on the website on whatever browser you have on it, but the app will not revert to SD. The VUDU app, which is the main one I need to work because of having some movies on it that aren't MoviesAnywhere compatible, will not play in SD even when clicking to play in SD. Pretty sad that the Google TV app will at least revert to SD but the other's won't.

Fixed it! Netflix is in SD, and all my other legal video streaming apps are working again!
Linage 14.1 with magisk 20.4 and the magisk liboemcrypto disabler addon.
Yes yes yes! No need to throw my shield at the trash!

Non certified devices have been using that technique for a long time. I don't really see that as a fix though. Just forces all HD content to 480p. We had widevine support to allow HD content. That's why I bought this tablet... I was using Netflix TV, and streaming content in HD. Now it's completely broken. I can't bring myself to viewing content on a large TV at 480p using the non TV Netflix apk. It's just sad and painful -_-
Thanks for the suggestion though. I'm sure others will make use of it.
