    Android TV Ambilight not working with Plex

    Ambilight not working with Plex

    Posted: 11 May 2021 05:23 AM PDT

    My ambilight application works on my TCL android tv on the Home Screen and app menu screens but it doesn't work when playing a video on Plex.

    I understand it won't work on Netflix etc however Plex is private content that isn't protected. Is there a setting im missing here?

    Anyone else had a similar issue?

    Is it possible to control left and right audio channel using Android TV?

    Posted: 11 May 2021 03:48 AM PDT

    Hi there. My speakers setup currently hooked to my TV does not allow setting of left and right channel balance. Nor does my TV settings.

    Is there a possibility how to adjust left a right channel balance using Android TV same as in Android 10 accessibility option? I was thinking about extra apk but I don't want to clutter my internal storage.

    Thank you for any thoughts on this.

    nVidia Shield TV Pro 4K vs. 4K Firestick: Which is better for privacy, security, customisation and streaming?

    Posted: 10 May 2021 10:37 AM PDT

    Hi everyone.

    I currently have a 4k Firestick and Panasonic 4K HDR/Dolby Vision TV, but the limited storage {constantly get messages about low storage and possible degraded picture quality and am struggling to find apps I want to delete) and Amazon's constant ads and pushing of their own content is very distracting and the a,lint of data they can and do collect from me is something I want to avoid, so is the Shield TV Pro better in those areas and a kind of device that privacy-enthusiasts should go for?

    Plus, the 4K and upscaling streaming quality is, I assume based on reviews and other Reddit threads, very close between both devices so that isn't the deciding factor for me because I am expecting to not be able to tell a difference picture-quality wise especially for 4K content on streaming services.

    So, I am mainly asking in relation to these features as gaming isn't important to me as I a;ready have an Xbox One S.

    Any helpful and objective advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Hardware Keyboard Reference?

    Posted: 10 May 2021 08:51 PM PDT

    I connected a bluetooth keyboard on my chromecast android tv, but I've been having a hard time finding a reference for what you can do with the keyboard. Is there a standard keyboard shortcut that let you do the back action for example? My bluetooth keyboard has an 'android' mode and the icons on the top seem to match with their function, but there is no back option on the keyboard itself.

    So far with experimentation i've found the top row corresponds with what the icon says, and the windows button goes into a search mode. Arrow keys, the space bar and the enter key seem to do something, and the esc key does something sometimes.

    The top row is: home, reduce brightness, increase brightness, search, rewind, play/pause, fast forward, mute, volume -, volume +, screenshot and lock.

    Do any Android TV boxes support multiuser?

    Posted: 10 May 2021 06:40 PM PDT

    Few years back (and perhaps still) it was possible to edit the build.prop on the phone version of android and set the option fw.show_multiuserui=1 which enables multi user support on the phone.
    Does anyone know if it Works on Android TV? And if so, should it work on any android tv box that can be rooted or just specific ones?

    Did a google search for fw.show_multiuserui=1 and android tv but came up empty handed.
    This is the feature that I feel is missing from android tv, to be able to have separate accounts in the operating system and not rely on the apps to implement some user switching system themselves.

    Lost Mibox 2 Remote, it's somewhere in the house

    Posted: 10 May 2021 09:13 AM PDT

    Hi, is it possible to find the remote by scanning for it somehow?

    I downloaded nrf connect and I can see some devices when scanning but I have no idea which one is the remote. I live in close proximity with my neighbours so I could be seeing their devices. The remote still had heathy batteries so there's a good chance it's on. Is there a way to look for it using bluetooth? Or maybe a way to confirm that it is still paired to the mibox?

    GTwC - voice controls from nest mini don’t work

    Posted: 10 May 2021 12:44 PM PDT

    So just got the GRwC to replace a CCU. Nest mini is in same room. I was previously able to give command like "play x from YouTube on the TV", play x from Netflix on the TV".

    Now nest responds with YouTube isn't installed on TV.

    I'm sorry something went wrong.

    The device is named TV in Google home.

    Any ideas how to get this working normally?
