    Wait for Google "Sabrina" or go with Shield TV?

    Posted: 26 Aug 2020 04:02 AM PDT

    Hello everyone!
    While we really enjoy our Chromecasts we want to move back to a more classic tv experience with the option to use a remote. We have two few month old 4K TVs, but one of them is webOS and one is a rather slow Android TV one. I want to unify these experiences for the whole family with two NVidia Shield TVs as that would fit our needs perfectly.
    However I heard that Google is about to release a Chromecast successor with Android TV and just wanted to ask for your honest opinion about whether we should wait for that device or go with two Shield TVs. I'm afraid that Google is going to equip the new device with features that third party devices like the the Shield won't get. What do you think?

    A useful workaround if your TV it's slow and crashes

    Posted: 26 Aug 2020 12:12 AM PDT

    I bought a Philips 55pus7304 recently, it's a decent TV for the price and comes with Android TV, the only problem is that sometime just grind to an halt, with sluggish apps, the interface lags and streaming it's not consistent.

    The problems seems related to the 2gb of ram, one solution I found useful it's to disable Google Chromecast in the system apps and disable Google assistant, I have a Chromecast Ultra and a Google mini to do the same job and the TV finally has started to behave properly.

    Need a new remote control for my Sony bravia xbr65850E

    Posted: 26 Aug 2020 05:13 AM PDT

    I found a remote that supposed to work with the 850f, on Amazon should I expect it to work with my 850E? It's the original remote, not a 12$ rip-off

    APK Updater for Android tv

    Posted: 25 Aug 2020 03:10 PM PDT

    I recently brought the shield TV pro and side loaded some apps including an apk Updater. So the Updater finds the new versions when theres is one but fails to download and install. Does anyone have a solution or alternative way to keep side loaded apps updated for Android tv?

    Live TV Recording

    Posted: 25 Aug 2020 06:12 PM PDT

    Hi all! I was wondering if it was possible to record live TV on an android box by plugging my Freeview into a USB adapter. If so, how would I go about this: what adapter could I use and would I be able to use Google's Live TV app? Thanks for your help!

    Xiaomi Mi TV Stick - Overheating

    Posted: 25 Aug 2020 11:25 AM PDT

    I've had major overheating issues, as was mentioned in a few reviews I saw. This would cause apps to crash and streaming to stutter.

    I opened up the case of the stick and have been using a USB-powered Honeywell portable fan to help cool.

    Just wanted to reiterate that the Mi TV Stick is slow and overheats.

    Video streams in multiple apps stop loading after pausing on Philips Android TV

    Posted: 25 Aug 2020 11:34 PM PDT

    Sorry if this has been posted before but I haven't found anyone else mentioning this issue. I use various streaming apps on my Philips Android TV and they invariably have the problem that the videos stop loading when I continue playing after having paused them. Involved apps are PrimeVideo, Videoland and NPO (the latter two being Dutch streaming apps). Casting from my phone works fine.

    TV is connected wirelessly to router. After the video stalls, I can browse and search just fine on the home screens of the apps and the home screen of the TV so it does still seem to be connected. When I select the video again it doesn't load, though.

    So far I have cleared the cache on the TV and rebooted it, which helps temporarily. Also, I made sure that both Android and the aforementioned apps are up-to-date. Any ideas?

    Thanks in advance.

    Edit: the TV model is 43PUS7304.

    Edit 2: same issue when connecting TV by wire.

    How do I install region restricted apps with VPN?

    Posted: 25 Aug 2020 01:32 PM PDT

    I can watch Funimation content from my country using a VPN. But I can't install the app on my NVIDIA Shield TV because it's region restricted. If I enable a VPN on the Shield TV, disable Location, clear Google Play Store data and cache and force restart the app, it will still only show me apps that are available in my country. Is there another way to achieve this?
