Netflix doesn't work and while watching youtube and other content, the voice and video is out of sync....I will never buy this brand again, nor can I recommend it to others!
Probably never. Support here shouldn't work in anything resembling support. The company really shouldn't exist if it's selling defective products with literally no support. These guys post the same unhelpful crap over and over, expecting it to qualm everyone's concerns. I definitely want a refund then I'm going to get the Intel NUC, at least they actually run a business, not a circus like MyGica.

But then Netflix won't work at all as I won't be able to install it?

As the 495 MAX ships with Android TV/Android 7.1 from Google
It has never been Beta
There's a Beta firmware version on the mygica website that has Netflix pre-installed

Thank you sir.
I cannot begin to tell you how tiresome it is using the current Beta Firmware version. It appears to be on a 2015 version.
looking forward to an upgrade.

1) You can install a Beta ROM provided in this forum to enable Netflix but it is an unofficial ROM so it could break at some point, besides, it's base under the same Android 7.1 that came originally in the Box so if you later decide to install 9 Pie you will lose Netflix again:
2) You can sideload the mobile version of Netflix by downloading the APK from websites like APK mirror, or installing the Aptoide Store in your device, but you won't get HD and you must use a mouse.
3) There is an unofficial add-on of Netflix for Kodi where you can use the service, it must be installed under Leia:

4) Wait until Netflix finally certify this device by a program they implemented called "Hailstorm":
Thanks @delacosta78
It's much appreciated.
I've installed the Beta version workarounda few months ago. It looks like the version needs an update as it's losing connection to the Netflix 2 server. Will try a reinstall. The Beta version I have appears to be using a 2015 version of Netflix. Netflix says there's missing data points that's causing the problem.
I'll try the Kodi add-on as well.
If I come across anything of use I'll post it here.
Thanks again for the assist.

How would one go about getting Netflix to work after the update has been done?
Android 9 Pie for ATV495Max is for real?

Can this device be returned for a refund as it was falsely advertised with Netflix?
