Been using the PPM now a few nights and so far liking it a lot. My first projector and really appreciate the portability of this. Regarding your question I installed the YLE Areena from the Aptoide store and although it said it needs Google Play Services to run it works ok. Just clicked outside of the warning box and was able to continue using the app. Started few different shows and they played without problems. The version of the app was 5.2.1-3cb6517b1.
Tried also the live channels and it worked also. Installed also the Lasten Areena for the kids.
Well… it worked for me but not that good. Huge delay and all. Not sure what the root cause was though, could be my pc and/or connection, but did not invest any time in investigating it
Hello,
I installed zwift on my PPM. But unfortunately it does not work. I can install it, I can start it. Then there is the blue startscreen with the big white letters ZWIFT. And than the error that it is missing a file ???
And it would be so, so great if this could work. Can anyone fix this? Philips? Zwift?
Kind regards,
John
I couldn’t even get google play to open when installed, so you’re a step ahead of me.
I hope there is a way to run Zwift on the Pico natively in Android. If not I have an Apple TV 4K, but it will be a hassle to set it all up in the pain cave.

Anyone found a work app for NowTV it’s the last thing I need to complete my set up. I remember it being a bit difficult on my previous Pico but have forgotten what I did?
