    I recently bought a 5.1 channel Pyle system that supports Dolby Digital and Dolby Digital Plus. I can get full sound from external equipment, local channels and even Netflix. However, no other app - even YouTube will produce 5.1 audio, for the videos that are encoded with Dolby Digital, which work on my desktop hooked up to the tv.

    My TV is a Skyworth Android TV 8 based tv.

    Philips 4K Android TV and Fat Fat32 NTFS exFAT file format

    Posted: 01 Feb 2020 11:25 PM PST

    Philips 4K Android TV only supports USB drives that are Fat and Fat32 formatted. It does not support NTFS or exFat. Largest file supported by Fat32 is 4 gigabyte. How can I view a video file that is larger than 4gb on the Philips Android TV?

    If 4gb+ files on Philips 4K Android TV are not supported at all, is there a free tool available that can cut my MKV, AVI, MP4 video files in smaller than 4gb chunks and not mess up the sync, quality etc.?

    New Sony Bravia x950g - Super Buggy

    Posted: 01 Feb 2020 12:41 PM PST

    I just bought a 55 inch Bravia x950g and from a network, WiFi connectivity perspective this TV is a buggy mess. Is that typical for Android TVs these days, or should I look to replace this thing?

    Controlling the volume on an external sound system

    Posted: 01 Feb 2020 09:01 AM PST

    I have a Philips 50PUS7303 and I wanted to improve the audio quality by buying a 2.1 sound system (Logitech Z623). The only problem that i got, but it's quite huge, is that i can't control the volume with the TV remote. I tried multiple solutions : using the headphone jack output, getting an optical audio converter, but never got any good result. The only way to control the volume as for now is for me to get up and turn the volume button ... which gets old quite quick.

    Is there any way to prevent that and control the volume with my TV remote ? I thought there was a "master volume" as on my main PC, but it seems not (which is rather weird tbh)

    Do any Browsers go directly to the URLs you give them?

    Posted: 01 Feb 2020 09:46 AM PST

    I've tried Puffin TV and two other Android TV Web Browsers. The let me enter a URL, but rather than just using the URL, they go to a google page and search on it.

    This is a problem because the URL I want to use is for a machine on the local LAN in my house.

    Edit:

    I looked at Puffin TV more closely. It seems to be the way they combine search and URL entry. As I type, it's doing lookups on common website names to shorten your typing. If I start "ya", it gives me shortcuts to yahoo.com. Once I click those, it goes directly to yahoo.com.

    If I give it a name only known to my internal DNS, or an IP address, I get google search results. Apparently they only try DNS for names matched with their search lookup. Or, the App has a hardcoded DNS.

    I even tried a bit.ly link to my local machine. It works for my laptop browser -- public bit.ly link takes me to internal machine. But with Puffin, I end up with google search results for my internal URL.

    Edit 2:

    Firefox and Silk both work on an old Firefox TV box. I am considering sideloading to my Bravia (Android TV).
