Dear friend.
Firstly, on the page of this set-top box itself, there is not a word about certificat ...

Dear we need to differentiate Google certification from Netflix certification.
Google certified does not mean Netflix certified.
In my little humble opinion, DRM L1 automatically means Google certified. However, it does not mean it is Netflix certified. Netflix certification is basically the Netflix imposes on the servers. If the client throws certain serial number which they don't like, then they consider the box is not certified.

Some Google certified boxes are Netflix certified and some are not. Feel free to correct me. TQ.

This box, is definitely NOT Netfflix certified.

My dear friend, thank you for your question. Although I am no more than yours, I understand this issue. After reading many articles, I found out for myself the following.

Here's an excerpt on Widevine technology.

Widevine is a Content Decryption Module (CDM) for digital rights management (DRM) used by Google Chrome web browser, Android MediaDRM, Android TV, and other consumer electronics devices. Widevine Technologies was purchased by Google in 2010. Widevine technologies use various encryption schemes and hardware security to securely distribute video content to consumer devices according to rules defined by content owners. Widevine is free to use by content providers and as such does not charge any fees for license generation or device integration.

That is, roughly speaking, this is a technology for protecting content from unauthorized transfer (copying) from one device to another. And not as it is not a device certification.

For a device to be certified by Google, it must meet Google’s requirements. The document is called the Mobile Application Distribution Agreement, or MADA.
The manufacturer of this device, you must transfer this device for software verification to Google itself. And if Google does not find various holes, viruses, root rights, etc. in the software of this device Then she will issue a certificate of compliance with the MADA parameters. And it will glow on Google play as a certified device. And the company will fall into the golden list of companies that have passed certification. Since this service is not free.

As for Netflix, then you are correct for Netflix to work. You must be certified at Netflix itself.

Yes, here are the requirements of one of the OKKO online cinemas. According to his requirements, the device must be certified by Google.

How to check certification on Google play?

Go to google play settings

We go to the very bottom and click on the inscription.

We click on the links of the list of certified manufacturers.

As you can see, Beelink is absent here.

Yes, I ask everyone to excuse me, possibly for my clumsy English, since I write my posts through the Google translator.

Thank you for the elaborate information, which I do learn many new things from it.

However, I don't think third party video applications ( such as netflix ) are concerned about device 'Google play store certification'. You can see from this article, you can get your device certified using this method :-

Video applications providers will not depend on this certification if this certification can be so easily "fixed", right ?

Does Beelink update their firmware often?
Because I need some of my apps to work better.
Some apps works but are missing features like vanced YouTube and catmouse.
