    [Google TV] Why does clicking 'Watch Now' start from the last episode, and not the first/next episode?

    Posted: 25 Jan 2021 02:23 PM PST

    Is it by design (or the app developer's fault) that when you click on "Watch Now" from Google TV it plays the last episode of a series, and not the first / next episode?

    It's been really annoying. I found the new Star Trek Lower Decks through Google TV, and I was watching the last episode of the series for 20 minutes before noticing the problem.

    Edit: It's worth adding I've since isolated this issue to Prime Video, with playing the last episode in the series. Other apps (BBC iPlayer) are smarter.

    RealMe Android TV - Unable to change default Homescreen to HAL Launcher

    Posted: 25 Jan 2021 10:59 PM PST

    Bought the RealMe Android TV (version 9.0) 108 cm (43 inch). Followed the steps mentioned in the thread to change default Homescreen to HAL Launcher.

    https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/162935/completely-change-home-screen-on-android-tv

    But after uninstalling the Google tvlauncher and leanback launcher, the home button takes to screen which shows only the wallpaper. Eventhough HAL Launcher installed, it didn't use that.

    Also long press of back button didn't show the option to choose launcher.

    I also installed Button mapper to change the home button mapping. But after installing Button Mapper, the accessibility menu stopped working. Not able to see the options under accessibility menu.

    I had to reset the TV to factory settings. Any help to change the launcher would be greatly appreciated.

    Importing Chromecast w/ Google TV

    Posted: 25 Jan 2021 05:21 PM PST

    Hello.

    I'm interested in importing the latest google chromecast with TV, but as i understand it, currently it's only available for US market, and more or less customized for US market currently.

    If i happen to import it and use it on unsupported region, would i receive an update to firmware that's more customized to my region later when available ? Would they know that i've imported it to outside of US ?

    Recommended Android TV brands/models to be able to run VPN software

    Posted: 25 Jan 2021 01:45 PM PST

    Hi all,

    Considering purchasing an Android TV to use VPN software on it.

    1. Which TV brands allow to do it?
    2. Should a TV be rooted?

    Thanks!

    GoogleTV and ExpressVPN on Netflix

    Posted: 25 Jan 2021 07:53 AM PST

    Hey Guys, running across an odd issue on my Google TV. I live in Canada but use ExpressVPN for US Netflix, this works fine on FireTV but on google TV the VPN connects and Netflix shows they it's on US Netflix BUT shows are missing. For example Star Trek TOS, I was watching through on FireTV before getting Google TV, and works fine on VPN but on Google TV Star Trek of any series is missing from the US Netflix so I need to disable the VPN to go back to Canada Netflix to watch it. I thought the US must have removed the Star Trek series from the lineup. But I just checked the FireTV and my Home PC the series is on both US and Canada Netflix. So that leads me to believe GoogleTV its self is blocking access to certain shows for some reason? Anyone have any idea what's going on and Why? other shows play fine but shows like Star Trek and Twilight Zone(Twilight is only in the US so that's how I used to tell which one I was on) are missing on GoogleTV on VPN.

    Need help with my android tv

    Posted: 25 Jan 2021 09:59 AM PST

    So I recently bought two android hisense TVs because I needed new ones and they were at a great price. I was really excited to get an android tv since I heard they have a bunch of stuff because it uses google play and not some other smart tv os. But now that I have it and I've used it for a little, boy am I disappointed.

    So first of all I can't have Apple TV. I wasn't TOO mad about that since there aren't many shows I watch on there, but it still sucks. Then I downloaded Disney plus and Amazon prime video, and I am completely disappointed.

    For Disney plus, the audio is a disaster. When I play a show (any show or movie, I've tried a bunch and it's all the same) the talking comes out of one side and the laughing track, sound effects or music, the other. So I hear the actors talking on one side and everything I hear on the other side which makes it really annoying to watch.

    Then for prime video, I just don't have profiles. Like on my account I have 4 different profiles but on the android tv I seem to have an old version of the app cause there is no selection whatsoever to switch, add, or even access ANY of the profiles that aren't the main one. My profile is not the main one so I can't use the app because I don't have access to my profile. So now I can basically just use YouTube and Netflix, which I find VERY disappointing since my Samsung TVs which have barely any apps, have more that what my android tv has.

    Do any of you have any ideas on how I could fix any of the problems I have with prime or Disney plus?

    I need some volunteers to check a Kodi plugin on android TV/Box

    Posted: 25 Jan 2021 08:51 AM PST

    I need some volunteers to check a Kodi plugin on android TV/Box

    Can some goodwilling redditors try this plugin of Kodi:

    https://kodi.tv/addon/plugins-video-add-ons/la7-la7d

    on his android TV/Box? it's in the official repository, very easy to install.

    I'm having stuttering problem on my Philips ambilight and we are trying to debug the problem. It's very hard to have the full picture with only one device. What i would need is someone to test the "La7 live" stream for a while and check if there is any stutters, it doesn't happens very often (every 2 minutes maybe) but it can be very annoying:

    After the test can you also point the model of the TV/Box? thanks in advance to anyone that will help me.
