    Android TV Shield stuck on 8-bit though Plex?

    Shield stuck on 8-bit though Plex?

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 05:00 AM PDT

    Hey guys,

    I have a movie file that my iMac says is Bit depth = 10, Chroma subsampling = 4:2:0. When I play it through Plex on my XB1X my Optoma UHD40 projector says it is displaying as 10 bit RGB, and when I play the same file through Plex on my Nvidia Shield TV 2019, The Shield says the file is YUV 420, 10-bit Rec. 2020, HDR10 ready

    BUT

    When I check the display settings on the projector this time, it says it is outputting 8 bit, 4:2:2...
    I checked Netflix (Spenser Confidential) on my Shield and the projector says it's 10 bit 4:2:0 I checked the same movie on Netflix on my XB1X and it also says 10 bit 4:2:0

    Does anyone know why movies are correctly showing via Plex on my Xbox as 10 bit, and also Netflix on the Xbox and Shield as 10 bit, but for some reason movies through Plex on the Shield only show as 8 bit? Even though the Shield itself says it is displaying 10 bit?

    Custom Start/Home screen

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 07:39 AM PDT

    Hi there,

    I have a Sony Bravia with Android TV.

    Is there any way to have a custom home/bootup screen, where I can choose a custom wallpaper and some Material Icons for Netflix, Youtube, Amazon Prime as well as my favorite Input channels (HDMI1, HDMI2...). Can I do that without having to use a custom firmware and with using an add and bloatware free App?

    Why I cannot get Netflix work on my Mi box 3

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 06:31 AM PDT

    I just bought yesterday, my Mi Box is a Korean version with telebee logo on the package. When I install it on Google play, it pops out a dialog that this box is not optimized for Netflix. When I clicked into the app, it indicated the dialog again, then it popped up another dialog saying this device is not compatible with this version of app, clicked ok, and exit.

    Here is some context, I'm in China using VPN to watch Netflix, but the VPN is working just fine, I can log in Nordstorm.com, which indicates I should watch Netflix just fine, so anyone plz tell me whether the Korean version supports Netflix or not?

    Sorry for my poor language, English is not my mother town

    Do I need still need a Hotfix to fix red tint on Nvidia Shield TV 2019?

    Posted: 24 Mar 2020 03:54 PM PDT

    Hey guys,

    I just got my first ever Shield, the TV 2019, and loving it so far! However......

    I've previously read about an issue with the Shield giving a reddish tint to the image, especially skin tones, and sure enough as soon as I added Plex and accessed my server, the first movie I played had a definite red hue to all of the faces in the movie.

    I read that a hot fix will fix this, is that still the case? I haven't signed up for the hot fix yet, but I updated to the latest Shield version (8.1.1) and I toggled "auto switch color space" to on, but it didn't seem to make any difference..

    I'm viewing with an Optoma UHD40 4K projector through a Denon X3600 AVR.

    Many thanks!

    Posted: 24 Mar 2020 07:31 PM PDT

    Which android tv box is best for side loaded apk's? I am currently using fire tv box with Ethernet port and fire sticks for side loaded apk's. I know some of my issues with the performance is my internet which I'm about to fix with new service. I would just like to know if any particular Android tv box would perform better and reduce buffering.

    Mi Box Remote

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 02:32 AM PDT

    Is the default remote that comes with the Mi Box an airmouse? Does it have a gyro and functions as a mouse?

    Disney+ not showing in Shield Tv? [UK]

    Posted: 24 Mar 2020 01:19 PM PDT

    Hey guys,

    Cant see Disney Plus on the Play Store but it is on my apple tv. Could it be that my play store is located to some other country? If so, how can I change it?

    Also, can you see it?

    Thanks
