    Android TV Built-in Chromecast isn't always detected

    Android TV Built-in Chromecast isn't always detected


    Built-in Chromecast isn't always detected

    Posted: 21 Sep 2020 07:13 AM PDT

    I bought this sharp android TV less than a week ago. And I'm having issues with the built.in Chromecast. Namely that the Chromecast is only detected as a casting option after manually turning on the TV and waiting a few seconds. Does anyone know how to solve this?

    Would anyone know how to fix this?

    Power Off Mi Box 4K?

    Posted: 21 Sep 2020 03:08 AM PDT

    I've got a Mi Box 4K recently. I'm not sure how do I shutdown or power it off. There's a power button on the Mi Remote. From what I read on the internet, it puts the device to sleep. Long pressing the power buttons brings up Restart and Screenshot options only.

    Currently, I press the power button on the remote, once the screen goes black, I turn off the adapter plug. Is this the only and correct way to power off this device? I can't keep the device plugged in all the time when not in use.

    'Chromecast with Google TV' (Codename: Sabrina) includes hardware for advanced surround sound processing. I'm forecasting Dolby Atmos and DTS:X support. (Evidence provided.)

    Posted: 20 Sep 2020 12:06 PM PDT

    If you're following the news around Google's project 'Sabrina', currently referred to as 'Chromecast with Google TV', you're probably aware of some of the information that's already been made available via specifications discovered from a leaked firmware teardown.

    Included in the hardware analysis of that firmware teardown is discovery of the CPU being used, an AMLogic S905X2 (12nm, 4c/4t @ 1.8 GHz) with an ARM Mali-G32 GPU. This combination should support decoding at up to 4Kp75 10-bit H.265, including HDR playback (via HLG), and HDR10/+ and Dolby Vision.

    Additionally, it includes Broadcom's BCM43569 processor for combined Wi-Fi and Bluetooth (4.1), and Cadence's Tensilica HiFi 4 DSP.

    Cadence's Tensilica HiFi 4 DSP (in other platforms) has been used to support Dolby Atmos and DTS Headphone:X. Based on the hardware being present in Sabrina, I expect this means we can expect advanced audio processing support, such as Dolby Atmos and (potentially) DTS:X.

    Aspect Ratio Control for Android Apps

    Posted: 20 Sep 2020 09:01 PM PDT

    So I was wondering if there's any restriction with Android TV OS regarding Aspect Ratio Control. For example, Many movies and series have black bars on Netflix/ Prime video and some users would want to zoom or stretch it to fill the screen. The Android TV I have disables that feature in TV and works only for HDMI inputs. Can anyone confirm if it works for them in any Android TV.

    TCL 40ES568 TV Frozen - Help

    Posted: 20 Sep 2020 12:17 PM PDT

    So I have this telly a week. Love it

    This evening it's frozen. On the remote the settings button works (brings up settings menu) but that's it. I can't hit left or right or anything.

    Before it froze I think I enable a Bluetooth setting and then this.

    Everything online says need to get into settings to reset but I can't.

    I've tried an android remote on my phone, connects but nothing. Is there a pin hole reset or something I don't know about?

    Xiaomi mi box 3 disable cast

    Posted: 20 Sep 2020 12:29 PM PDT

    Hello, I have a mi box 3 and I am connected to a public network. This causes some inconvenience like the fact that anyone can cast music or video. So I would have a question is it possible to deactivate the fact of being able to cast on the mi box 3
