I recently updated my Casio Gzone phone and everything seemed to be fine. It looked better and a couple cool features. I went to open my netflix app and to my surprise nothing. It just blinks now wont open at all and it was working just fine when I had 2.2 now with 2.3.3 nothing. I wouldnt have done it if I was aware of this. Everything I have read says it should work and netflix has this model on its list. They say it will work on 2.2. How do I get it back? I would rather go back to 2.2. I have tried to sideload it too using the latest to the newest netflix apk. Still wont work. Can anyone help?
Broke, the documentary that brings ESPN's outstanding "30 For 30" back tonight, begins with this pair of statistics, courtesy of Sports Illustrated: "By the time they have been retired for two years, 78 percent of former NFL players have gone bankrupt or are under financial stress; within five years of retirement, an estimated 60 percent of former NBA players are broke."
The root of the problem, most of the speakers seem to agree, is that players most often turn pro by their very early twenties, right out of college if not before that. They generally have no business experience. Unlike people who inherit their wealth or make it in business, they don't necessarily have natural connections to people who are used to handling a lot of money. When you hand a 22-year-old a few hundred thousand dollars, it's most likely going to be spent. That is not an age in which you typically find excellent long-range planning skills, after all. (Former NBA player Jamal Mashburn talks about an endorsement deal with Fila that netted him a Ferrari as a signing bonus when, he says, he couldn't even drive stick.)
And then there's the extravagant spending. Cars, houses, jewelry, tailored suits ... the culture of active professional athletes, at least in the NFL and the NBA, is one that encourages excess, and because it attracts such competitive and driven people, some describe becoming competitively profligate, which is sort of a disaster, as you can imagine. Remembering a fox coat he bought and wore only a couple of times, NFL linebacker Bart Scott speaks not with mild regret but with ... well, this: "It almost makes me look like a silverback."
There are all kinds of bad decisions that go beyond extravagant purchases. They agree to invest in businesses, from restaurants to record labels to car washes. (Retired wide receiver Andre Rison is one of the film's most entertaining contributors, and really knows how to bring a dry, perplexed kind of delivery to a line like, "For some reason, professional athletes got this fad with buying ... car washes.") They're subjected to straight-up theft and they're hit up by friends and family. As Herm Edwards, a former player and coach who now does presentations for players, puts it, "It's hard to tell people that you love 'no.'" Longtime Cleveland Browns quarterback Bernie Kosar, who declared bankruptcy in 2009, estimates that he was at one time or another supporting somewhere between 25 and 50 families.
But if you really want to lose a lot of money, the fastest way might be to take the route of someone like Evander Holyfield, who is said in the film to have eleven children by nine women. You know what's probably more expensive than a failed car wash? Eleven kids, forever. Child support recurs over and over again in Broke, which gives an airing both to the athletes' complaints that women seek them out specifically to get pregnant and get rich and to the response that you can't very well throw your athlete status around to impress women in clubs and then claim they trapped you because of your athlete status. (I do wish they'd at least touched on the matter of birth control and whether that might be a logical way to avoid winding up supporting children you never intended to have. Because if not using birth control is part of athlete culture, that's noteworthy.)
One other thing. Don't forget: in order to go bankrupt, you don't have to lose all the money you made in a lifetime of being paid as a professional athlete. You only have to lose whatever you made in your career. An average NFL career is between three and four seasons. You may wind up with injuries that need long-term care, or that inhibit your ability to work in other jobs. The film becomes, in part, a picture of how hard it is to place your current fortunes in the context of what will become your later fortunes. What 21-year-old is good at thinking, "I'm really going to need this money in 20 years if I blow out my knee"?
Broke is ultimately a little too unstructured for me; I became weary after a while from listening to the thumping music under the interview clips. I'd absolutely have cooled it with the music at some point, because it does become distracting. But the information here, and the straightforwardness with which a lot of these guys offer it, is fascinating. The "30 For 30" series has been great at explaining the culture of sports to both fans and non-fans, very much including the business side. (The first one I ever saw was the fine King's Ransom, about the trade of Wayne Gretzky to the L.A. Kings. Like other "30 For 30" films, it's streaming on Netflix and Amazon Prime.) Broke looks at the players' side of all that money and concludes that it's surprisingly easy to lose it, no matter how much you have. If Mike Tyson can declare bankruptcy, after all, who couldn't?
So I have an AppleTV HD (4th Gen) running tvOS 14.0, and surround sound is broken on Netflix. I am pretty sure it was working forever before I upgraded to tvOS 14, which is why I just spent an hour and a half trying to fix it.
I enabled tvOS Developer tools to show the media stream HUD, and it is clearly outputting 2 channel audio for all Netflix content. Disney+ and HBOMax are clearly outputting Dolby Digital or PCM (e.g. 6 channels). I have tooled with all of the Netflix and tvOS settings, including signing into a totally different Netflix account - all to no avail.
I can report the same problem after the recent Netflix app update. I updated to tvOS last week and 5.1 surround sound was working fine with Netflix until the app update on Tuesday. I have a LG CX OLED and Marantz NR1602 which does not decode Dolby Atmos.
tvOS 14 has changed the auto setting sound output. I send sound via HDMI ARC to my AV receiver. With tvOS 13, i had to set the Apple TV to down mix to Dolby Digital 5.1 to get 5.1 surround sound as I cannot pass through 5.1 LPCM over ARC with my setup. Now, the auto setting correctly sends a Dolby digital 5.1 signal over ARC on Apple TV+, Amazon Prime video and Netflix until the recent app update broke surround sound. I suspect that the recent app updates in Netflix and Plex are to blame but only on tvOS 14.
I noticed this same problem on my Apple TV 4K yesterday (Wednesday 9/23). I've been going crazy trying to figure out why I'm no longer receiving Dolby Atmos audio while watching content from Netflix clearly labeled as Dolby Atmos. It was working fine before yesterday.
After fooling with all the different settings on my Apple TV and my Yamaha receiver, nothing helped. That's when I went into other apps (Disney+, Apple TV+) and played content with Dolby Atmos, and it worked perfectly. It seems to be a problem with Netflix only.
I am having the same problem only getting 2 channel audio, no 5.1 or atmos on Netflix with my Apple TV 4K, played around with every setting under the sun, updated my reciever (Yamaha RXA3060) and even reset my Apple TV. I hope it is fixed soon, so frustrating ):
Deleted and added Netflix app 5 times. First time works but after that, no luck. Every video subscription service (Apple TV, Amazon Prime, etc) all support 5.1 while Netflix chokes and only supports stereo after the TVOS 14 update.
In this episode, Dave explores on-set disasters from the movies you know and love, including tyrannical directors and wild animal attacks. Neil tells a tale of a Japanese toilet in Thailand and you'll never be the same again. In Part 2, Hollywood casting agent, Aly Horn, backs up Dave's claim that a weird, 2004 indie comedy broke Netflix.
30 for 30: Broke is a sports documentary that shows how many pro athletes go broke after they retire. They make tons of money but blow it on bad investments, friends who take advantage, and a fancy lifestyle. The documentary interviews some famous athletes about their struggles and why it happens.
The cheapest Netflix Standard with Ads Plan provides all but a few of its movies and TV shows. However, it will show ads before or during most of its content. You can watch in Full HD and on two supported devices at a time.
According to a 2009 Sports Illustrated article, 60 percent of former NBA players are broke within five years of retirement. By the time they have been retired for two years, 78% of former NFL players have gone bankrupt or are under financial stress. Sucked into bad investments, stalked by freeloaders, saddled with medical problems, and naturally prone to showing off, many pro athletes get shocked by harsh economic realities after years of living the high life. Drawing surprisingly vulnerable confessions from retired stars like Keith McCants, Bernie Kosar and Andre Rison, as well as Marvin Miller, the former executive director of the MLB Players Association, this fascinating documentary digs into the psychology of men whose competitive nature can carry them to victory on the field and ruin off it.
