Vero V comes with Widevine L1 and HDCP2.2 keys provisioned in the device. We do not however have a Netflix ESN so playback is likely to be limited to 1080p for this service.
We have done a proof of concept Widevine L1 demo on S905X2/X3 but the security model has changed on X4. We are cautious and want to develop and introduce support in a way that works for users reliably. We are also reluctant to introduce something that may be deprecated in the future.
As such we’re working closely with Google and AMLogic on integration, and we plan to target industrial customers first. It may be the case that this ends up the only use case – which is why we’re careful not to advertise it for consumer use at this time.
The good news is that there won’t be any further licensing requirements in the future – your device has already been provisioned with the necessary HDCP2.2, HDCP1.4 and Widevine L1 keys that must be burned at the factory and cannot be provisioned over the air.
The Vero V will handle Widevine better in software than its predecessor as it has a faster CPU, the the ultimate goal is for full hardware acceleration of these streams as well as access to Widevine L1 content instead of just Widevine L3.
