This version of mediamonkey for android requires google play services [#16983]

[georgejones31415]

First time user trying to install MediaMonkey on Android FireTV.
I pushed to the FireTV the latest MediaMonkey .apk from apkmirror.com
When running MediaMonkey on the FireTV I received the message "MediaMonkey for Android requires Google Play Services 12.4.51 or later."
I pushed to the FireTV several different releases / variants of Google Play Services from apkmirror.com

No joy.

Any insights out there?

You'll need to use the version from the Amazon App Store.

Sorry for the earlier double-post. I received an error message with the 1st post (as a new user).
Amazon.com "Get This App" links for MediaMonkey directs to a 404 error "sorry we couldn't find that page". Is there any other source for this apk?

Hi,
I had no issue accessing, installing https://www.amazon.com/Ventis-Media-Inc ... B00UG4GNV0 and then downloading https://www.amazon.com/Ventis-Media-Inc ... B00UGCB04C

Thanks for getting back. Your link didn't work for me (same 404).
I changed my location to UK (with Mullvad VPN) and set up a new Amazon account. Still no joy.
Any chance you can set up a link that doesn't involve Amazon? Both the paid and unpaid versions would be nice since I would like to try it before I buy it.

Be safe.

Hi,
No unfortunately as Pro is compiled along with purchase so it is tied to account and builds

Re VPN: Change browser and I guess you are either infected, blacklisted, I can't replicate. Try to take FireTV to other physical location. Does that URL opens in any browser?

I was using Firefox, but at your suggestion I tried MS Edge (both Amazon sign-in accounts) and get the same 404 error.
I decided to try Firefox directly from my FireTV and I noticed a message in Amazon saying the download is only available for Android devices (hence my failure with the MS Windows laptop). So I attempted the download from the FireTV and it crashed Firefox (three times).
It did have another footnote saying I should download the Amazon App, which I tried. It didn't crash Firefox, but it did give me a https failure error message of 1/4 a page.
Groan.

Hi,

fyi, I just checked the version that is posted to the Amazon store and see that it is not enabled for Fire TV devices (that may be why you couldn't have it 'deliver'ed to your stick. It's possible that there aren't any technical issues, but we'd first have to verify that it meets Amazon's requirements for such devices and only then can we get it approved.
