    Help with recording (noob)

    Yo, I just recorded something on my Phillips Android TV TV onto my USB HDD.

    Interestingly, it was recorded in some strange format and can only be played in the Recordings menu of my TV, not on a normal computer.

    Looks like this:

    This is one of these recordings. Note: VLC can't open pvr files.

    Best launcher for in-app shortcuts

    Posted: 31 Aug 2020 08:24 AM PDT

    Hi, I'm looking to get an android TV box primary for retro games. I have seen the launcher with the wheel on the left (cant remember the name), but I was wondering if it would be possible to create an shortcut to an in-app function. (A shortcut to open a file with an app. E.g. Pokemon Fire Red --> Myboy app) and maybe be able to set a custom face/logo for the shortcut.

    Thanks in advance

    EDIT: Further question. Does the "wheel" launcher allow inner-wheels, like a folder within a folder?

    Remote control woes... Rii MX3 MX6 / WeChip - No Infrared Control

    Posted: 30 Aug 2020 09:40 PM PDT

    So I have now gone through 3 models of remote control, they all have problems on several different TVs in my house.

    • Rii MX3
    • Rii MX6 (The version without the C1 button)
    • WeChip W1

    The MX3's back button didn't work (it acted as a right-mouse-click which doesn't work in a lot of Android TV apps), so that one was out. The other two didn't work for IR volume after programming. My Tivo Stream 4k does not pass keyboard-based volume/mute as CEC to my TVs, so I need the claimed infrared programability of these remotes. They register the power button properly during IR programming, and they appear to accept the programming of volume, but they only seem to send them as keyboard codes after it exits programming mode.

    I need a remote that will send IR for Vol +/-, Mute, and Power, and keys for at least home, back, direction and OK. I would prefer one with a keyboard on the back, as all the above are, but it's not a strict requirement. Is there any remote that can do this that doesn't cost as much as the Stream 4k did?

    I had the Harmony remote system, but with the new streaming player I am paring down to one Android TV per television (4 of them) and I want a separate remote for me and my wife in the living room for 5 total, so something that isn't $100 each is a must, preferably in the under $25 range... A Harmony for each of 4 rooms is absolutely overkill for something that should be a simple solution.

    Possible to use tv as external monitor PIP?

    Posted: 31 Aug 2020 12:23 AM PDT

    Using Philips oled Android tv, is it possible to use the TV as external monitor from Windows 10 - but only get the screen (from Windows computer) as a PIP, a mini window on the screen. So, I want to watch och use whatever on my tv but still see my screen from the computer.

    Why not many choices of non-smart TV on amazon/flipkart available??

    Posted: 30 Aug 2020 12:19 PM PDT

    After finalising to buy a non-android TV and an android tv box separately, i started looking for the options online. I found: TLC, Sharp, VU brands do not have their non-smart TVs listed on online platforms readily. Only smart TV choices are there, that too with very minimalistic hardware such as 1gb RAM and 8gb HDD. (in 25-28k range)

    Sanyo 43 inch ips led non-smart is available, but non-deliverable in many parts of India (including Delhi, Jaipur).

    I would like to know if any of you observed similar ?
