So, just when intel now has hardcoded vp9 into it's chips to let us watch 4k with longer battery time on laptops the media dumps it and change to av1. This is such a laugh at the consumers expense.

New feature: Netflix is removed...

Can't find a way to add it back :-/

Please keep us posted, if anything changes.

Settle down folks. Netflix will return during the already planned November SW release which brings a ton more features as well. I do enjoy reading the conspiracy theories though. 😁

That might be, but why do they not inform people that Netflix will be removed for 2-3 months, and why do they offer an AppleTV as compensation ? Maybe it will be solved, but that is just not the way to do it !!

Shhhh, a little birdie told me that due to licensing issues with DLNA software, online music streaming companies, and other technicalities, B&O will be unveiling a new music system (not a standalone speaker) released with Multiroom, inbuilt display and local storage of media too. It should be released around the Holidays at the end of 2016.

*wakes up* Oh, I've been dreaming again...

I know what you're trying to do! LOL 😁😎

Is that true? My BV14 arrives next Tuesday, but having cabling prep work done tomorrow....guess i'll need to shove an Amazon Fire TV in the back of BV14......seems very weird removing Netflix.....when i played with a BV14 last week, Netflix was there in the Android TV environment.....oh well

longer term, if Netflix switch to AV1 codecs, will the BV14 (or any 4K tv with similar specs) not be able to play Netflix in 4k ever? 

i know their 4K content is extremely limited, but still.....

B&O: Just make great TV cabinets, source the top screens, and make the best video & sound processors as their brains. Leave the "smarts" to other companies and have users connect STBs (ie. Apple TV, Roku, TiVO). Even now, I never, ever use the "smart TV" capability in the BV11. It is just too slow and janky for any useful use. I just use the connected ATV and TiVO for all that. Leave that to the experts. B&O, do what YOU do best.

I'll go into my old man corner now. :-)
