    Android TV Yubikey5C and Yubikey5C+NFC not working on my Nvidia Shield. I have to sign into my google account. I type my password in and the second factor is the Yubikey. I put in the yubikey 5 the led lights and I put my finger on the button of the yubikey. I tried the 5C as well as the 5C with NFC.

    Ok, so after I signed my google account t over to 2fa, (password then Yubikey) my Nvidia Shield (Android TV box) wanted me to sign back in to my google account. (on the box, connected to the tv) I put in my google account username and password. Then for the 2fa, it asked for my Yubikey. I inserted my Yubikey into the USB port on the Shield, got the (lit) led and put my finger on the button. Nothing!! Just the little flash type thingy showing the way to insert the yubikey into the USB port. But, again, when I do that, nothing happens. Well, the led comes on and I push the button, as this is how it works on everything else, but it does not recognize that I am inserting the key. Any experience with 2fa on the Nvidia Shield? I have tried my yubikey5NFC and my yubikey5 C. Or some kind of workaround? Thanks. Just had surgery, I am home bound, stuck at home.....Help me fix this. I need my video fix!!!! Thanks to all.

    Any opinions on the Bqeel Y8 Max?

    Posted: 18 Feb 2020 07:10 AM PST

    I'm thinking of buying this box to replace my Leelbox MXQ Pro.

    I'm mostly looking to upgrade the internet speed to use GeForce Now, as it gets a little choppy with my current box. I have what until this morning I thought was a 300 mbps internet service, turns out its 500 mbps. I get around 250 mbps speeds on my Samsung S8 and Surface Go and can play flawlessly with GeForce Now.

    Can anyone tell me if its a worthy upgrade? I also want to use Mobdro and Stremio.

    Thanks!

    Screensaver turns itself off on Philips TV

    Posted: 17 Feb 2020 09:46 PM PST

    Hi, proud owner of a new Philips 50PUS8804 here. Android Pie runs pretty good on it. One critical functionality for me is the screensaver showing our family photos. This works, but after sometime in standby or after a reboot, the setting is lost and returns to the default "Never show screensaver". This is very annoying. Any ideas here? Thanks

    Xiaomi Mi Box S rebooting every few seconds

    Posted: 18 Feb 2020 02:33 AM PST

    I don't use it very often, but turned it on today to watch youtube and it said there is an update to android 9.0 Pie. So I ran the update, it said it would reboot several times, which it did, then it just kept rebooting. 10 times then 20 times then 30 or 40 times and I thought yea this isn't right. It would bring up the chromecast screen then restart then load it up again with a new background then restart, every few seconds. Then eventually it started loading into android TV and then restarting.

    Is it broken? Did the android 9.0 break it? Should I do a factory reset or something? I just got this thing a few months ago and its already broken.

    MI BOX S weird brightness flickering issue.

    Posted: 17 Feb 2020 09:17 PM PST

    Hi,

    I got my MI BOX S several month ago. It's been working fine except it keeps flickering on my Hisense 4K TV when playing video. It's weird because:

    • Only flickering when playing SDR video with "Hardware decoding". Unfortunately most stream service are default to that. HDR video is working fine.
    • "Software decoding" works fine.
    • UI interfaces works fine.
    • Never flickering on my 1080p Asus monitor or RCA TV with any setting.
    • At the same time, Roku is working fine on my Hisense TV without flickering.

    These solution did not work:

    • Change cable.
    • Dynamic brightness on/off.
    • Dynamic contrast on/off.
    • HDMI color range auto/full/limit.
    • Output format: Ycbcr 420 444 / RGB / 8 bit 10bit.
    • HDMI 2.0 mode: standard/enhanced.

    However I do find some workaround I wanna share it here:

    • Enable SDR-HDR feature: Since it only flickering on SDR video, force it to HDR mode seems a good solution. However it has a tradeoff, the video color shift a bit with SDR-HDR.
    • Reduce resolution to 1080p or lower: It did reduce the frequency of flickering, however it still flickering.
    • Tune the "color" setting slide bar on the TV: simply tune the value of "color" up and down stop the flickering completely. But it's not permanent, once reboot the TV or MI BOX the flickering comes back.

    Any idea?

    Posted: 17 Feb 2020 06:39 PM PST

    Can you play call of duty mobile on a android box? It is android and I have the game downloaded. Just don't know how to sign in and navigate around cause the game is based on touch screens and I do have a bluetooth controller.

    Android box to turn touch screen into tablet?

    Posted: 17 Feb 2020 06:02 PM PST

    Ok so im looking at some POS software and the guy said it runs best on android tablets, instead of spending a fortune on small tablets I was wondering if I could just plug Android boxes into a touchscreen? Im unsure as 'Android TV' seems like a different platform to android (excuse my ignorance if Im wrong) as I have a Shield and there are lots of apps you cant download onto it.

    Youtube Tv app on android projector?

    Posted: 17 Feb 2020 04:44 PM PST

    Hi guys - I got a Chinese projector to test and it runs a version of android 8.1 i believe - it's actually not too bad and i am a newbie - so not sure if this is relevant or you can help - i managed to install aptoid and already downloaded some apps - the smart youtube tv app works perfect but i can't get the youtube tv app to work - it installs but it brings a playback error - any solutions to that?

    My guess is Netflix wont' be working either.

    if anyone else is using a similar setup feel free to suggest any interesting apps. Thank you so much!
