One piece of advice: Be careful on how you craft your  question if you hope for a useful answer.

Rule #1 Never imply something illegal up front :-)

How often should I update Netflix?

Since I went on the foreign APK route, it doesn't update anymore.

I having the same problem after reverting from Android 7.1 (2.0.3) to 5.1.1

Started Netflix... Got a message from the Playstore that Netflix is not compatible with my device.
I uninstalled the "builtin Netflix" and Netflix is no longer available on the store.

So I'm screwed too.

I also sometimes have these problems  . I use the mouse Rii i25A, and android 7.

The mouse on stock 1.0.9 was skipping as well.

I don't know what part in the list almost corrected it (now skipping is next to none)
-Since the box is wired, I disabled WiFi (If I have to bet on one, I would guess that's it)
-Rooted the box
-Uninstalled/Removed/disabled every process I didn't need. (Don't try it if you don't know what your are doing)

Q10 PRO FIRMWARE. 1.0.9-FUTEKO-EN. HMD-1.0.9 2016-12-13.091707

Installation Instructions:

1. Extract update.zip from the download archive to the root of a USB pen drive. (the USB pen drive should contain a single file called 'update.zip').
2. Insert the USB pen drive into any USB port of Q10 Pro.
3. With Q10 Pro turned off, use a paper clip or pen to press and hold the the pinhole UPGRADE button on the back of Q10 Pro (next to the power port).
4. While keeping the UPGRADE button pressed, turn on the Q10 Pro.
5. Q10 Pro will show an Android droid logo and proceed to upgrade the firmware.
6. When you see the Android droid logo, you can release the restore button.
7. The box will auto-reboot when finished.
8. First boot will take 3-5 minutes. Wait for the Android home screen to be displayed.

Must be on USB port. I tried first from the MicroSD - Ended up with a factory reset without update

Comment on the side, it's pretty lame that the out of the box file manager doesn't support ZIP file.
Because I also didn't extract the update.zip from the main zip and couldn't extract it without re-registering on playstore and install a basic file manager that let me extract the update.zip file.

The stuttering on native DVD formats (AUDIO_TS/VIDEO_TS) is really awful. It's a shame from mediaplayer in that price range to perform that poorly.

Since most of what I watch is this format... I went back to another brand with older and much less powerfull hardware in the living room.

Please FIX.

Worked for me so far. But it's only been few days since I did it.

As one of the design concepts was optimal compatibility with existing APP's made for smartphones it would be a differentiator for Himedia products.
Many competing products following the Android TV (=Leanback) approach will come very soon.

Well right now it's kind of a differentiator in a wrong way. I have other Android based media players and they do have the notification bar. I prefer it that way. Many apps are able to hide it when needed... Kodi is an example.

I'd like to see it back assuming it's implemented properly and user tweakable.
