But I got netflix running on my newly imaged Vero, just last week. So I know it works, just have to figure out which system package is missing. My guess is that this will be solved with a quick, shell session.
you say kodi using using matrix repo on the nexus build. where does the address of the matrix repo reside in kodi as it may be an error as I cannot connect to the kodi repo. Not sure kodi repo was in repo list until I loaded netflix repo.
This is just as I unmderstood it, since I can clearly see addon.signals in matrix, but i got it installed in nexus, by automation. When I installed Netflix, last week, just before the weekend. On my freshly imaged Vero. No issue.
just for info I install netflix a week or 2 ago and basically working but reinstalled due to buffering issues. (worked out today my new pi4 not as sensitive as my pi3 on wifi) Waited to weekend to reinstall. Move pi4 to same room as router to fix wifi and now persistant dependency issues. Was wondering if kodi.addon site down. Note sure what to ping yet.
Only thing I did differently was delete everything relating to osmc from my desktop downloads folder as I had multiple copies of the osmc loader app and I may have kept using old downloaded loaders instead of the 4th and 5th iterations that I had downloaded in recent days. Everything clean worked fine.
FYI, this is the list of issues to date with the kd-49x8305c Android TV. Interested to know if you're hitting the same. If the same issues are on both model lines it's more likely to be firmware issues with Android TV....
"Netflix - Service availability depends on country. 4K Ultra HD availability subject to your Netflix subscription plan, internet service, device capabilities and content availability. This feature will be available via a firmware update in summer 2015."
I've uploaded Netflix for Androdid TV 2.1 build 425 to apkmirror and I'm not sure how long it'll take to show up there - I've put it on my dropbox if you want to try installing it yourself _2.1%20build%20425_425.apk?dl=0 - if you don't trust me though run an APK extractor program to get it yourself from your TV - I used -extractor/apk-extractor-3-03-android-apk-download/ manually installed using the instructions at -tv-guides/how-to-sideload-apps-apk-files-on-the-nexus-play...
Signed up to 4k Netflix - Daredevil looks great - there's no Dolby Digital pass through yet - that's in the next version 2.2 which is only installable on Android 5.1.1 - we'll just have to wait for that to be released
My guess it was deliberately disabled by Sony - perhaps there's a known bug they're trying to fix that I've not spotted yet. Sometimes companies would rather hold back on these things than risk being plagued by reports of broken features
