    Android TV Casting hit and miss

    Android TV Casting hit and miss


    Casting hit and miss

    Posted: 24 Dec 2019 04:01 AM PST

    Hi, I have a Philips Ambilight TV, one of the newer models from 2019 ('The One') and a Oneplus7. Sometimes the cast icon won't be there or will be but the TV won't show up. However the 'real' Chromecast that's in bedroom never fails to show, neither does my router-based Chromecast.

    Is there something worth doing that can change that? Thanks in advance!

    Is possible to create shortcuts withing apps?

    Posted: 24 Dec 2019 06:20 AM PST

    Hello,

    I've been using Nova Launcher and Button Mapper for years and it comes with one handy feature which is Activity launcher. I am able to create shortcuts to any hidden app/settings and sometimes I can even make shortcut within app depending on which activities that app has.

    Does anyone knows is it possible to create custom shortcut activities on Android 9 and Android TV 9?

    Let's make few examples if you don't understand what I mean: Shortcut that directly opens YouTube subscriptions/watch later, Shortcut that directly opens HBO GO favorites, Shortcut that directly opens "Downloads" in any file manager etc.

    Some apps already have those activities and it's pretty cool to make shortcuts with them on my Android TV Box remote control, while some apps don't have those activities at all except main one.

    There is one more example, I use one app called EON TV and in order to go to "Favorites" I need to click over 8 times through UI to see Favorites list. Can I just somehow make custom activity that leads to favorites and map it with Button Mapper on my remote?

    Thanks!

    Is even possible to contact Android TV developers/Support?

    Posted: 24 Dec 2019 05:56 AM PST

    I found few bugs in Android TV that are bothering me since I use Android TV but all I know is that there is Android forum where I always get some stupid generic answers from guy that works for Google Android forum as Support there.

    How to actually contact Android TV Support/Developers to send Feedback/Screenshots/Suggestions for new features/problems/bugs...?

    Or that is not possible because apparently it's classified who is working on Android TV OS and we only can prey for them to fix something in Android TV 10?

    Xiaomi Mi Box apps no Audio except for Netflix

    Posted: 23 Dec 2019 02:52 PM PST

    Hi -

    About 3-4 days ago began having a problem with my Xiaomi Mi box. All Apps (Plex, Youtube, Kodi) except for Netflix are producing no audio. Video playback is fine (no errors) but no sound at all.

    However, Netflix app is working great - audio and video are perfect and do not require any changes to amp or tv config to get it to work.

    Any recent changes to Xiaomi Mi box updates that would cause this? Any changes to Netflix app that is somehow preventing other apps from outputting audio (I know, seems unlikely)

    I've rebooted Mi box many times but no change in behaviour.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Thanks,

    X

    JBL Link Bar Chromecast built-in update

    Posted: 23 Dec 2019 11:15 AM PST

    I understand from the other thread that JBL Link Bar Chromecast built-in app was updated recently to fix/introduce the audio group sync.

    For the people who received the update, could you please provide the version of Chromecast built-in app apk?

    Also, could you please share the apk that you have on JBL Link Bar? I would like to check if it works on Shield TV.

    I tried to get the apk from the other thread but my comments were hidden under some good information.

    Mi Box 3 4K USB not working

    Posted: 23 Dec 2019 12:56 PM PST

    Hi there all,

    I have a Mi Box 3 (i belive) and I was using for aprox. 1 year. Now I tried connecting an USB hub and it didnt even powered on altough it was working when I tested when got it a year ago. When I connect a usb to ethernet adaptor, it lights up, when I use a different USB Hub its lights up as well but if I try a usb drive or Logitech F710 wireless controller its not detecting it.

    I tried disable USB debuging (it was disabled already) And I tried factory reset (2 times)

    Any ideas, any help?

    Thanks in advance, Have a good day!

    Mi Box S and HFS

    Posted: 23 Dec 2019 01:17 PM PST

    Hey, all.

    New to Mi Box after using LibreELEC for years. I just got a Mi Box S and was hoping to use it with my 5 TB WD hard drive. However, it's currently formatted in HFS because I have some large files on there. I was really hoping to use the Mi Box and Kodi to catalogue everything, but I can't access the hard drive without reformatting it. It's a ton of files, and I have nowhere to put them if the only solution is reformatting everything.

    Is there some way to get my HD to recognize in Kodi/the Mi Box without losing all my files?
