    Viewing photos on AndroidTV

    Posted: 30 Dec 2020 04:58 AM PST

    Hi guys - I was wondering what's the best app with a clean simple UI for viewing photos (&videos) from a usb drive connected to my Sony android TV. I've tried the media player that comes with Sony TVs and although it's great for watching videos, the photos however take ages to load up. VLC and Kodi work okay but don't really have a friendly UI for my parents to use. I appreciate any advice that you guys can provide. Thanks .

    How do I customize the Google TV (Chromecast 2020) menu?

    Posted: 30 Dec 2020 12:27 AM PST

    Coming from a regular android TV, the UI is.... a difference.

    Despite having uninstalled "Disney+" and "Joyn", and having disabled them in "customization options" I STILL get a full screen AD for all of these. None of my Plex, Arte and other stuff shows up in the "Reccomendations System"

    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Philips Ambilight/Screen control with Google Home ?

    Posted: 30 Dec 2020 06:32 AM PST

    Hi there,

    I've tried (assuming it was an embedded feature) to turn off my TV screen (not the TV itself) to listen to music using Google Home, and it turned off my TV... In the same fashion, I also tried to enable/disable Ambilight, but it didn't work either.

    My TV name is "TV OLED" and I tried the following commands (in French though):

    Ok Google, turn off TV OLED screen
    Ok Google, turn on TV OLED screen
    Ok Google, turn off Ambilight on TV OLED
    Ok Google, turn on Ambilight on TV OLED
    Ok Google, disable Ambilight on TV OLED
    Ok Google, enable Ambilight on TV OLED

    None of these commands have worked, is there a way? As I plugged my Shield TV on it, I don't want to use multiple remotes... As the Shield remote as no button to turn off the screen not control Ambilight, I thought this could be a nice alternative but... No luck

    Did someone manage to do it ? (Of course I can turn on/off my TV either by turning TV OLED or Shield TV on/off with voice commands, but I want more control)

    Google TV: 1 Digital TV and 1 Analog tV

    Posted: 30 Dec 2020 04:18 AM PST

    I have two TVs: 1 newer digital TV and one older analog TV. My analog TV (+- 30 years old) still works with Charter cable, albeit with some headaches.

    Would the analog TV work with Google TV? It's a DAEWOO

    Some cool Karaoke app for Android TV?

    Posted: 30 Dec 2020 06:29 AM PST

    Hi, I'm looking for some karaoke app that I can use tomorrow on my Mi Box S. Something with USB microphones compatibility could be great, as the Mi Box has an USB port. I used to run Ultrastar on my computer, but I don't know if there's some Android equivalent. Being able to import songs (as in Ultrastar) would be nice, too. Thanks.

    Pixelated dark overlay around Netflix titles when playing HDR content on CCwGTV.

    Posted: 29 Dec 2020 12:11 PM PST

    Side by side comparison

    The upper one is HDR the second one is SDR.

    When playing HDR content on Netflix, the dark overlay around the title and player controls gets all grainy and pixelated.

    It doesn't happen when playing 4K SDR content or when playing HDR content on another app.

    The content itself isn't affected by this issue, dark spots on the video itself don't appear pixelated or grainy at all.

    This seems to only affect the Netflix overlay that appears when you start playing content or when using the Netflix player controls.

    I have a TCL Roku TV 4 Series, I tried switching the Chromecast to a different HDMI/charger/cable, uninstalled and installed the Netflix app back and also tried completely resetting the device, and I'm still getting the pixelated overlay with HDR content on Netflix.

    I don't get this weird issue neither with the Chromecast Ultra or the native Netflix app on Roku.

    The "Match content dynamic range" toggle doesn't affect the issue.

    Is anyone else experiencing this?

    Match content dynamic range in the Chromecast with Google TV

    Posted: 29 Dec 2020 03:40 PM PST

    For better picture quality, is it better to turn on or off the Match Content Dynamic range in the settings? I did notice that whenever I turn it on, the gamma setting on my tv changes from ST 2084 to BT 1886 and im not really sure which one is better

    I want google TV but I don't have an iphone?

    Posted: 29 Dec 2020 07:14 PM PST

    I'd like to set up GoogleTV for my apartment, but I don't have an IPhone. I understand that you need an "app" to install Google TV?

    Unfortunately, I have an old Chromebook and I don't think that would work...

    Posted: 29 Dec 2020 04:08 PM PST

    I have the box set up properly and used for so long on android 9...there isn't an ota update available...

    Using the update pack downloaded from the company site, does it erase everything?

    If so, is there a way to backup and restore after update?
