Can't watch purchased content on the CT screen

[dLux]

Hi,

I have a few purchased TV series on YouTube app and the native Tesla YouTube app can't play them. It redirects me to download the app. The same happens when I try to watch movies and TV series in the browser on the Peacock website.

The reason is that the Tesla browser is not trusted by these apps enough to allow DRM-ed content to be played.

Not cool, Tesla, not cool! Please fix it! If someone knows someone at Tesla engineering, can you please have them file a bug report about it?

(It looks like Prime Video works in the browser and obivously the native Netflix app works as well)

Why don't you contact YouTube about their app not working?

Is there a setup video that I can use?

@yippie what is your solution for Plex in the CT though? Just using the browser or something else clever? I tried the browser and while that sorta works when parked, the audio was out of sync and it just didn't seem the greatest. Also it doesn't work for the rear screen when driving as far as I know. I would really love Tesla and Plex to build a proper Plex app for Tesla's, that would be worth gold to me!

Plex lets you download from Youtube?

I assume I would need to buy everything again on physical media and rip them for myself. The legality of this is is questionable and I rahter not pay again for the content I have already bought...
