    Android TV Streaming TV audio to Chromecast

    Streaming TV audio to Chromecast

    Posted: 23 Mar 2021 07:00 AM PDT

    I have 3 devices: Google TV with remote, Google Chromecast Audio, Android phone with Google Home App.

    Challenge: I want to control Spotify from Google TV, but to play it through Google Chromecast Audio.

    Notes: I don't mind if Spotify plays through the TV at the same time, I can mute the TV.

    Where I've got:

    I've set up a group from my phone's Google Home app that contains the TV and the Chromecast Audio.

    With Spotify playing through Google TV, I've then gone into the home app on my phone and changed where I'm playing from the TV to my new group which works, but I can no longer control Spotify through the app on Google TV, only from my phone.

    Does anyone have any suggestions please? There doesn't seem to be an option on Google TV to stream to a group.

    4K Videos on Youtube Stuttering

    Posted: 23 Mar 2021 08:57 AM PDT

    So I just bought a new TCL 4K TV, it is running Android TV 9 if I'm not wrong. I'd like to know why YouTube is stuttering at 4K or even 1440p. In 1080p it is noticeable but definitely not as much, is it a problem with the operating system being too demanding? I haven't tried Netflix but I suppose it would stutter too.

    I just bought this TV so maybe I can return it without a problem but I honestly like it a lot because it's a QLED, the colors are great, the input lag is minimal and the HDR is pretty good for a 500€ TV in Europe (We don't have great value-for-money budget TVs like the TCLs, Hisenses or Vizios that exist in USA btw), only the OS is slow af.

    I'd like to know what do you guys think? Do I return it? Do I keep it since I like it? Do I just get a Chromecast, Android TV box/stick in case I want to make use of those features?

    Thanks a lot!

    Anybody got a clue, why Android TV is requesting permissions?

    Posted: 23 Mar 2021 04:10 AM PDT

    Today I set up a new Android smartphone using my Google Account.

    About 10min after setup and connecting the smartphone to my home network I got a request on my smartphone sayin' "Google TV is requesting permission to access the following account: ***" (*** = my personal account).

    Does anybody in here have a clue, why I got this question? I don't have an Google/Android TV App on my phone (just looked through). I do have some Nest Mini device and a Samsung SmartTV which is controllable by Google Assistant.

    Still I don't get why I got such a permission request and where it might come from - without doing anything? Is there some deep system integration? Or can this request be spawned by just detecting some compatible device on the network?

    bluetooth stutter problem android tv atv2

    Posted: 22 Mar 2021 06:57 PM PDT

    this is weird, and i mean, really weird... i have a 2 different wi-fi providers, one is far from to the TV so it has lower signal than the other, well the one closer makes my bluetooth headphones stutter so much they're unusable, when i first noticed i feared the tv had something wrong but by mistake i found it was the network.

    i just can't understand how is this possible

    You can play YouTube UHD on a Full HD TV. I have a Sony Bravia 40 inch FHD TV. And using the SkyCable Evo box that I posted before. The box itself has 4k UHD support. I'm amazed that when I go to YouTube and playing a 4k video, my 5 year old TV can play 4k UHD video!

    Is my TV 4K?

    Posted: 22 Mar 2021 07:07 PM PDT

    Hello. I am the owner of a TCL 50P815 4K TV, and I have some questions.

    Ever since I got the TV I've noticed that a lot of the things are "fuzzy" or "blurry" like the UI for example. But I also find the image to be underwhelming also. I've done a lot of browsing regarding this and I have been using adb (Android Developer Bridge)

    So my question is if my TV is supposedly 4K, why do I get the output "Physical Size: 1920x1080" from the command: "adb shell wm size"

    A bit irrelevant but I had the same TV and it was amazing, the UI was very sharp and nice, image was perfect and well, it lived up to it's description as being a "4k tv" but then I had to get a replacement because there came issues a long the way. So I got the same TV and as I was setting it up I noticed immediately that the quality wasn't as good. Was I just lucky to have an Android TV that had good UI or something? Even with Netflix the UI was 4K. This post maybe doesn't make any sense and I feel like I'm driving myself crazy, or maybe I am crazy. But uhm, yes, I guess the question is about the output.

    Thanks for reading.

    Mi box not opening apps

    Posted: 22 Mar 2021 05:59 PM PDT

    My mi box won't open some of my apps. Netflix, primevideo etc work fine (I'm assuming anything downloaded from the play store is working fine). If I try to open Nova tv is launches then closes. I was going to uninstall then reinstall but when I open Downloader, it's fine but when I click on the browser tab it closes the app I've restarted the mi box several times, force stopped all the apps, restarted again. Nothing. Any ideas?
