    UK Google TV No BBC Iplayer app

    Posted: 12 Oct 2020 04:52 AM PDT

    Just a heads up to anyone in the UK ,I Just purchased the new chromcast with google TV for my spare room and just realised there is no BBC iplayer I assumed as its available on my shield it was just a regular android tv app but there is no official version for gtv, on a side note there seem to be a Now TV app In the store that can be installed (not sideloaded) but claims can't be used on this device when opening.

    Google TV and Dual Audio

    Posted: 12 Oct 2020 07:24 AM PDT

    Can anyone confirm if the Bluetooth version on the new Google TV is 5.0 and whether it supports dual audio feature to allow two bluetooth headphones to be connected? Also is it worth switching from Firestick 4k to Google TV? I'm not going to be paying any difference in price. But just from features wise I was thinking that Google TV will allow more apps to just work instead of sideloading them on the firestick (like Xfinity, Vudu, Nest, etc).

    Android Tv on new Xiaomi Mi 4S L55M5 LED-TV does not seem to play 4K

    Android Tv on new Xiaomi Mi 4S L55M5 LED-TV does not seem to play 4K

    Hi guys! First of all if I am in the wrong forum for tech questions like the one above feel free to "push" me to another subreddit :)

    I just bought myself a new 4K from Xiaomi, it comes preinstalled with Android TV(nice). But when I try to stream 4K content, it does not seem to really display that resolution, don't get me wrong the picture is looking great af but if I go into stats it tells me the host file is playing in 4K but the display is not representing that resolution accurately.

    The display mode is set to 1080 but it is indeed a 4K TV and I did not find any mode or setting to switch that mode.

    I will post a picture too so you can understand what I mean.

    Hopefully someone can help me out here, would really appreciate it!

    GoogleTV, app only mode, no Play Store Icon

    Posted: 12 Oct 2020 07:40 AM PDT

    I can see the Play Store if I enter Settings/App and open it that way, but it would be more like my other devices to have it on the homescreen with my other apps. Yes, I know I can just search but I prefer to browse. Any way to make it visible?

    Kudos to Google for the app only mode though.

    Chromecast with Google TV web search

    Posted: 12 Oct 2020 06:48 AM PDT

    Is it possible to use the google assistant button on the remote to do a web search? The results for the assistant seem limited to media. I want the results to look more like what I see when I search from my phone. Is this possible?

    Anyone get their GoogleTV Netflix Bundle Codes?

    Posted: 12 Oct 2020 05:59 AM PDT

    I ordered the GoogleTV Netflix bundle when it was first announced and it is on a FedEx truck to be delivered today. I am hoping others are getting theirs today or soon.

    Did anyone order more than one, and can confirm or deny if Netflix allowed you to redeem more than one 6-month code? I'm going to buy more if it allows it.

    Remote Buttons Not Working

    Posted: 11 Oct 2020 08:41 PM PDT

    Been using GoogleTV on my Hisense H8G, and some buttons on the remote haven't been responding: input, apps, etc.

    I tried downloading Button Remapping, but every time I try to find the accessibility toggle it's not there in the menu. So I'm kinda left stuck with this and it's pretty annoying. Anybody else dealing with their remotes being remapped from the download?

    Just set up Chromecast with Google TV and Google Play Movies & TV library is completely missing.

    Posted: 11 Oct 2020 05:28 PM PDT

    I have a large library of content in Google Play Movies & TV and it doesn't show up under the "library" tab on Google TV. Even when I search for a movie that I own inside Google's infrastructure it doesn't give me an option to watch via Google Play. Instead it tries to get me to pay for some other service to watch it (Hulu, HBO, etc). If I manually go to all apps and open the Google Play Movies and TV app all my content is there. Basically there is no way to find or play my owned content via the normal Google TV interface. It is only accessible if I manually launch the old Google Play Movie & TV app.

    This is super frustrating as this is one of the main reasons I wanted this Google device is to watch the large library of content I have paid Google for.

    Web Browser for Google TV? (Free)

    Posted: 11 Oct 2020 01:38 PM PDT

    So I just got the new Chromecast with Google TV. I wanted to stream directly from a website but can't find a web browser app that works. Puffin required a subscription and TVWeb wouldn't load the streaming sites. Those were the only "browsers" that pulled up. Is there an app I can't find that would work to search the internet?

    I reverted my TV back to factory settings and turned off the updates when they ruined the homescreen with those giant ads. Have they fixed that yet?

    Installing beta apps with the new Chromecast with Google TV

    Posted: 11 Oct 2020 11:09 AM PDT

    I just got the new dongle today, and I use HDHomeRun for my local tv. I'm trying to install it on there but it just says beta app and doesn't give me an option to actually install it.

    I have the app installed on my shield no issues. Does anyone know how to get this installed without having to go through the hassle of sideloading.

    looking for a universal remote recomandation

    Posted: 11 Oct 2020 08:07 AM PDT

    I want a small simple universal remote - much like the old silver apple ones or the nvidia shield one.

    I basically need a home and back button as well a direction pad. Would be great if the volume buttons could be self programmed to control the sound bar like the nvidia shield one does.

    Like i said, i dont need the number pad, stop play etc.

    Bricking my wifi??

    Posted: 11 Oct 2020 11:38 AM PDT

    Got the new Google TV, and If the device is unplugged my device home internet speeds are 500 MB per second. Once it is plugged in all of the other devices go to 20 to 30 megabits per second. Anyone else having this issue? Doesn't matter if it's off or not
