" summary

Get builds a new operator‑tier Android TV box to replace third‑party platforms running in half a million homes, shipping a custom launcher, live TV app, setup app and in‑house playout backed by multicast DVB and HTTP unicast. Hardware vendor implements DRM and a Trusted Execution parity check for boot integrity. Development hits certification bottlenecks: GMS/CTS/PCTS cycle takes about a month and initially fails 4 of 10,000 tests, blocking APK-only updates so OTA currently requires full system image releases. Remote and UX iterate from user testing and hardware collaboration.
