Android TV user reviews pan Showmax 2.0

Picture quality is also really not up to scratch... 1080p is not the problem in my opinion, the low BIT rate is the problem!
I use Showmax exclusively for EPL on my Apple iPad. As opposed to the "old" Showmax and the picture quality even at 1080 now comes and goes, thought it was the British weather at first, Both players and crowd very blurred then normal then blurred again.
 
Apple Acolyte, please pray tell which TV comes with iOS installed?
What does that have to do with the price of eggs? The built in TV OS versions are fine.
There appeared to be far fewer complaints about how the Apple TV, Hisense VIDAA U, and Samsung Tizen versions of the app were performing, aside from older Hisense and Samsung smart TVs no longer being supported.
Android TV is more shyte than Hisense Vidaa lol.

The point is Apple Acolyte - there are not any, the majority come with Android TV, others with WebOS or Vidaa that you cannot even put DSTV on . So yeah ...
 
As a DSTV Premium subscriber, I was amazed to find out that I cannot access Showmax as my decoder does not support the new version. It should be state that my decoder is only 3 years old and I refuse to purchase a new one.
In addition, I have tried to load the latest App on my smart TV, but to no avail. I have also tried to mirror from my phone and this has been denied. Very frustrating indeed and if not for sport on DSTV, I would happily cancel my subscription
Agree, I hope showmax 2.0 dies a quick excruciating death. Showmax was never worth the money, that is why we got it for free on premium. Now you need to use your phone to stream well showmax and DSTV can all go straight to hell. They are bankrupt and try stunts like this with the hope of people buying new decoders. The joke is on you DSTV. Your are literally losing subscribers daily due to your Showmax 2.0 platform biting you in the arse. But guess that to be expected when Zen Z's are in charge of decision-making. Also funny how most adds on DSTV nowadays are DSTV advertising themselves and showmax the whole time. Even the advertising agencies are giving up on DSTV. That should tell you something.....
 
Showmax Android Mobile App has no casting function anymore?

Or am I missing something here? Besides a casting function.
