Hi,

 

Do you mean the anti-piracy tech?

 

Thanks,

Drew

That’s correct. Ive read that some sony tvs have this built in now. As far i was aware this technology was standard on bluray players and the like. Ive read various reports and it sounds like a nuisance.

@demetri23 The operative system is the same in all Sony Bravia with Android. Well, there are actually two versions, Android 6.0.1 for ATV1 and Android 7.0. As far as I have seen there is no Cinavia implemented, while I know it is implemented in the PS3 for example.

 

Probably Google doesn't bother with it, and Sony/Mediatek would need to do some extra work that's not worth the effort (also given the broken state of the audio passthrough). Not to mention it wouldn't be a very smart thing in terms of marketing. Hopefully it won't be added in the future!
