    Super Mario 64 on Android TV

    Posted: 16 Nov 2020 06:47 AM PST

    Has anyone had any success with compiling the sm64port on their Android TV?
    You need to install Termux from the Play store, add to dependencies and make it.

    https://github.com/VDavid003/sm64-port-android

    That's the theory anyway. My phone can compile and run the APK but my Google TV for Chromecast goes through the motions but no APK. It would be nice to play with a bluetooth controller on the big screen.

    How much of an impact the lack of ethernet port has on the mibox?

    Posted: 16 Nov 2020 02:17 AM PST

    I'm considering getting a mibox and saw it doesn't have a physical connection only WiFi. The box will sit near the router which seems a bit of a shame since I have great download speeds. My question is how much of an impact using the wifi over a physical connection will have on streaming 4K content.

    Is there an autolaunch apk - like kiosk mode (but free)

    Posted: 15 Nov 2020 03:57 PM PST

    Most kiosk modes are made for business and come with business pricetags or subscription costs. I'm trying to make my Android TV device (Dynalink DL-ATV36) just auto-launch into Duo on powerup. It doesn't matter if someone can "accidentally" quit and drop back to a home page - it's personal use for a somewhat less savvy family member who can just re-launch/power cycle in the event of an oops.

    Are there any launch-from-start options / home pages out there?

    Did Google TV just remove Netflix from supported apps?

    Posted: 15 Nov 2020 05:00 PM PST

    I had saved a bunch of netflix movies to my watchlist last week and now the Google TV app is showing them as paid options only. When I go into support for Google TV, it does not show Netflix on the list of supported apps. What happened here? Am I messing something up?

    Random black screens with Google TV when paired with a Hue Play Sync Box.

    Posted: 15 Nov 2020 06:47 PM PST

    Does anyone have a Hue Play HDMI Sync Box and have or had issues with the screen randomly flashing black and or "permanent" black screen?

    I have confirmed that my Google TV is not the problem as when it's plugged directly into the TV it does not have any issues. It's also not the Hue Play Box as my PS4, Nintendo Switch & PC do not suffer any screen issues.

    It's definitely something related to how Google TV connects with the Hue Play Box. I cannot seem to figure it out, I have tried all HDMI ports on the Hue Play Box, as well as making sure the connections are secure.

    I have done a factory reset on both devices.

    • Tried all the options for display resolutions and refresh rate.
    • Turned on and off the HDMI-CEC on both devices.
    • Turned on and off the Dolby vision compatibility option in the Hue Play Box app.
    • Tried different HDMI cables.

    I am able to fix the issue temporarily by switching the resolution from 4k 60hz to 4k 50z. The problem then comes back after a while.

    Random notes:

    • HDR passthrough works.
    • 4K UHD works
    • Audio still works when the screen blacks out.
    • Happens in any app on the Google TV

    Chromecast With GoogleTV flickering?

    Posted: 15 Nov 2020 02:24 PM PST

    Hey guys, recently got a CCwGTV and noticed when we're watching netflix the screen flickers a lot and then sorts itself out and then it happens again. Doesn't do this for Geforce now or other apps.

    Anyone else had this or got a solution please?

    Direct TV Now app for Android??

    Posted: 15 Nov 2020 07:36 PM PST

    Does the new Chromecast with Google TV play media from the DirectTV Now service without casting? From my research, only the Roku hardware has an app for DirectTV Now.........

    Mi TV Stick disconnecting GameSir T1Ss

    Posted: 15 Nov 2020 07:16 PM PST

    Video

    It takes hours for me to be able to get GameSir keep connected to MiTV Stick, as I show in the video it suddenly disconnects after some seconds.

    What I know: It's a Mi TVStick problem. Tried in Mi Box, WI-FI dongle and some Android phones, no problem at all. Not sure if it's just my stick or any. It's not a bluetooth interference. Have no problem with any other device, couldn't test with another joystick tho.

    What have I tried: Reconnect with/without unpair. Connecting from different joystick modes. Connecting from Bluetooth Pair app(couldn't connect). Leave only one(GameSir Joystick) device connected. Probably more but I don't remember rn.

    What rarely work: Making GameSir joystick itself connect to MiTVStick by turning off and on the joystick, then it will connect to Mi Stick and don't disconnect, but it takes many attempts to work. It should work always as any android device(because the Joystick always try to reconnect to the last device once it is turned on), I think Mi Stick is denying the reconnection or something.

    If anyone get through something like this, I would like some help. Would also like to know if there's anyone with the same problem.

    Xbox One S Controller can't use select/start buttons?

    Posted: 15 Nov 2020 09:21 PM PST

    I have connected my Xbox One S controller to my Hisense Android TV (9.0). Everything seems to work great except it doesn't register the menu or start button or pushing down on the joysticks. When I go to Steam Link button mapping, I can't map those buttons at all and it doesn't seem to register at all.

    Any thoughts or ideas? I've tried updating the controllers firmware, it's on the latest software via Xbox Accessory app. I've also unpaired and tried new batteries.

    TCL picture settings not working

    Posted: 15 Nov 2020 01:49 PM PST

    Since about a week I use the TCL 55ec780 android tv, it works completely fine, except the biggest part of the picture settings don't really do anything. The gamma doesn't change when putting it higher or lower and the same counts for the contrast, hue, saturation and color temperature setting. I've tried multiple software versions, but it doesn't solve anything, does anyone know if there's a solution to this, or should i just send it back?

    ChannelMaster Stream+ (CM-7600) AndroidTv performance and enhancements?

    Posted: 15 Nov 2020 10:13 AM PST

    I picked one of these up for $59 refurbed from ChannelMaster via ebay. Does anyone use this as an Android TV box? It looks like it has decent specs.

    Armada 1500 Ultra chipset with 10bit HEVC 4K output2GB ramDual ATSC tunersWifi, ethernet, BT4.1, micro SD slot, toslink outBT + IR remote

    Downside is that it has only 1 usb port (3.0) and runs AndroidTV 7.0. I've looked around and haven't seen a way to update the OS yet.

    If I add an external HD I can only use it for DVR or for personal storage (I think either the AndroidTV operating system or LiveChannels "encrypts" the drive. I would like to use the HD for personal pics and videos as well as DVR. Is there a workaround for this?

    The live channels app seems decent for DVR, but are there better apps for free or without subscription for guide info? I'd also like to be able to transcode recordings to h264 or 265 to increase DVR storage.
