Astro Go today force update to 2.201.4, if not you cant launch the apps. I think the 2.201.4 version they have block streaming through HDMI output and give u a black screen with sound only. It is like you cant airplay or use HDMI cable out put From iPad. They now have this block for TV box as well.

Yes fxxk Assteruk. Playing nicely and today it tells me to update, but on Play Store it says that my machine is no longer compatible.

I'm using the Remix Mini Android PC, a legit android "PC" and not STB.

If they want to run the whole market this is the wrong way of doing it. Netflix runs on anything and doesn't care about HDMI out or not.
Our folks still want you to run a stupid satellite cable AND plug in an internet connection for DRM.

Fxxk this.

So i tried the method listed and also the apk from piji.

I am not sure what's the issue, probably my android box.

I have a Remix Mini Android PC running RemixOS based on Android 6. It was one of the earliest Android implementations of a Desktop mode and I got it from the Kickstarter campaign back in 2016.

Using the edit APK or even the one from pijit, I get a weird issue whereby I cannot see the Login button of Astro ID after I click "I have an Astro ID".

I strongly suspect that this may be due to the stretching of the Android UI which messes with the resource files in the APK. Hence, the method is not usable for me.
What a bummer.
