Meaning.... to avoid problems, stay away from ATV os and/or L1!

L3 regular android cheap cheap box also can do, as long as unrooted and android 5 and above, i think.

Old 8.x.x will inevitably die, better we focus on new version.

Old AOTG = 8.x.x
New AOTG = 2.xxx.x
L1 device + Android TV OS + New AOTG = Lagging and stuttering HD video playback, except NVIDIA SHIELD
L3 device + Android TV OS + New AOTG = Lagging and stuttering HD video playback
L1 device + Normal (Mobile) version Android + New AOTG = Lagging and stuttering HD video playback
L3 device + Normal (Mobile) version Android + New AOTG = Smooth like KY Jelly

Go for android 7 and above..

I tested tanix tx2.. android 6.. damn, cant see the box to put in username and password.. as what puchongite inform.. anroid webview.. and then android 6 and below, don't have the option to change the system view..

beelink gt1 mini, android 9.. inside developer option, got option to change the webview..

for the tx2, i installed chrome and android webview from playstore, nogo.. inside the developer option also no option to change the webview..

hi guys, i got a prob here to login aotg on my huawei hypptv white box.

the prob is my login is using FB and aotg wont open FB to link it.

So my question is, how do i get astro ID when I registered initially using FB credentials?

if anyone have similar issues do let me know. I can access it thru my phone no probs as it opens the FB apps to login. However in my STB it wont although i have FB apps installed. So i want to get my astro login credentials and not the fb login credentials.

thanks in advance.

Someone earlier mentioned his mecool m8s max has judder. The L3 'mecool m8s max' is Android TV OS ?

I am pretty sure some of the L3 devices which come with Android TV OS will also have a normal Android ROM available. If these boxes are loaded with normal Android ROM, will they be smooth as jelly ?

Anyone using GT-King can confirm if GT-King can play the new AOTG without issue? I think voncrane is using GT-King right?

GT King fits an L1 device, and also using normal Android. The S922x is quite powerful both CPU and GPU.

So now recipe for disaster for new AOTG:

Android TV OS OR Google Widevine L1 devices

How to check ur widevine level? Install DRM info from playstore. Go to widevince CDM section and look at security level. It should be either 1 or 3. Most devices should be 3. Mibox, Nvidia shield, gt mini-a, mecool m8s pro w, l should be 1.

Funny behaviour now for aotg.. so what it is all about, android tv or google widevine?

maybe there are unique exceptions.

or simply old/weak/broken firmware?

Hey.. You masking Root to run the latest stable app? Cuz I sideloaded and it reports the device is rooted and refuses to go beyond that. I expected this and uninstalled.. Installed the latest Beta which has the same app version number and this still works.. Doesn't check for root. Been playing for about an hour and it's been smooth so far.
Hmmm... I'm still unsure.. Most likely its as what AVFAN says, FW related.. not neccessarily widevine level.. As I can confirm that both the stable and beta versions work on the Neo U1 which is a L3 device. The GT-King being a L1 device would probably still work if i mask it's root.. it's a dev unit, so I can't at this time.

Beta still working? Some of my friends who are on beta version reported that now it prompted to go for official version.. after all, it is beta I guess..

I tried installed the new official release of AOTG 2.xxx.x on my mibox s.. more worst, the login page is totally blank.. I only see 2 white horizontal bars across the screen.. I guess I should try the old 8.19.8 the one with modded no force update.. but not sure how long it will last..

Beta still working.. Installed on both devices.. Matter of fact, me still watching via the GT-King as I type this.. Version is "2.193.2/AC19.3.2/0163930 (80322)".

Yeah, you can try that. i too am unsure how long this beta will last. Hopefully they don't nuke it.

Actually, why do u call that beta?

The version with the word beta on the screen has long gone.

2.193.2/AC19.3.2/0163930 is in playstore. So, should be official.

80322 is a version no. used by apkpure.
Users of v8.2.6 modified, it is DEAD. No more.

seller of the gt king box unroot for me
