    Is it better to have a separate Google account just for an Android TV used in a household?

    Posted: 04 Aug 2021 11:29 PM PDT

    I was wondering whether it would be a bad idea to use my personal Google account for the Android TV that everyone uses in my house. I am not particularly keen on having my personal account on a non-personal device like a TV. For example, I do not want my recommendations and other stuff getting messed because everyone else is using my account. Also, I don't know if apps like YouTube auto logins to the same Google account used for setting up the TV. If it does, that would be a huge issue for me.

    Do you think it is better to have a dedicated Google account just for this purpose? It would be more or less used as a family account only. One main advantage that I can think is that when I am not there and if the TV needs to be reset or something in the rare scenario. I wouldn't have to share my personal account's password to re-setup the TV.

    Google tv

    I Have Google TV on my phone trying to cast to my TV running Android. I can't seem to find the button to cast? Is not that it won't find my TV, Is just that I can't even get into that option. I'm connected to my home wifi but the option is just not there.

    HDMI CEC conflict with Mi Stick?

    Posted: 04 Aug 2021 10:39 AM PDT

    Hello there, i have had a Xiaomi Mi stick for several weeks, and i just bought a new soundbar + sub combo for my tv (Sony HT-S350, TV is Lg 47LM640S), since then, my experience with the soundbar has been pretty much hit or miss, and initially i couldn't figure out why. The problem was that many times, when turning on the TV, the soundbar wouldn't turn on, but sometimes it wouldn't, by troubleshooting it for 2 days straight, i have found the cause, but not a solution.If i turn on my tv while the Mi Stick is on, the soundbar won't work, if i turn the tv off again, turn off the Mi Stick with his own remote, and then turn the tv on again, the soundbar works like a charm. so to me it seems like there's some conflict with the HDMI CEC controls, but i can't quite figure out how to solve this. I have tried switching the hdmi ports of the stick and the soundbar to no avail

    Is there something i can do on the android side of things that would "disable" CEC on the mi stick? or do you have any possible solution to this problem?
