Help Troubleshooting

I’ve been trying to watch the newly released episodes of TWD on my Jetstream Android Box for a while now, but no matter what I use to watch it it stops and buffers every 10 seconds I tried the AMC app casted from my phone and on the box, I even tried Cinema HD and Kodi but they all do it, I know it’s not my internet and what’s strange is nothing else does that. Has anyone came across this ?

MiBox S freezez the TV?

So recently i have noticed that if i just shut off the TV while it's on HDMI with MiBox playing something the TV will freeze and will not boot up until I unplug it and plug it back.

If I just go to homerscreen before shutting the tv off it doesn't have this issue.

Any ideas what could cause this?

Did a full reset on the TV, doesn't seem to help it

Old Google TV box - Sony NSZ-GS7

My 11yo picked one of these up at Goodwill yesterday. He loves fiddling with old tech, and was hoping to get our streaming services working on it. Unfortunately he's being stymied by a bad password error at the Google login. I verified that he's using the correct password. At this point I'm pretty sure it just won't work, but my son isn't willing to give up until the brilliant hivemind of reddit says it's a lost cause. So, does anyone here have any genius ideas I can pass along to him? Thanks.

"Continue watching" only shows Netflix content, and not even everything

I have a CCGTV. It works well and I am satisfied. However, the main "Continue watching" section on the home page is not working great. It only shows shows from Netflix that I am watching, and not even all of them. I also have Prime and Disney+, but the shows that I am watching are not present on the "Continue watching" section on the home page.

Is there a setting to decide which apps to include there? How can I add Prime and Disney+ to this overview?

Is there an easy way to remove the "ad bar'?

Since the latest update i now have a Fire TV style ad section at the top, suggesting a bunch of shit I would never watch and other shit on services I do not have. I thought on the Home Screen settings there would be a toggle to turn this off, but I guess Gougele is getting ad revenue for this?

Am I stuck with this or what

Has anyone gotten Apple Music to work on Android TV past the login?

The app itself seems to work fine, but Apple's lovely (mandatory) two-factor verification system doesn't work with the Android TV OS and doesn't take the code that you have to put in (you can put the numbers in, but it just takes you back to the login screen when you try to continue).

Do all Android TV boxes support the 192Khz/24bit resolution audio by HDMI?

I have a bunch of 192Khz/24bit FLAC music and I was wondering if my Android TV box was able to output that resolution or if it was limited to a lower one.

How to know?

By sideloading an Android mobile app called "Sample Rate Checker", I was able to find out what sample rate and bit depth my Android TV box supports, it also shows the audio codecs the AV receiver supports (Note: The fact that it shows DTS-HD and Dolby TrueHD doesn't mean the device also supports them, it actually needs an additional implementation when the licence is achieved by the OEM):

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=br.com.vixti.samplerate

The app shows on one of my devices (Formuler GTV) that it supports up to 192Khz sample rate but it appears limited to 16bit, though I'm not sure if it's a limitation of the box:

Walmart ONN AndroidTV .. why all the hate

Android TV is not foreign to my household with Shield TV, MiBox and builtins throughout the house. I moved my last 4k FTV over to this ONN and I can't see why all the hate around here for it. It just works. I added a dongle to add additional USB ports and runs off ethernet. Does 4k just fine w/ HDR. No picture quality issue, no color space issues. I'm streaming 4k rips (some 80G MUX ones) off my home NAS with my installed KODI without any issues. No passthrough issues with audio does DTS-HD just fine. Sure its not a pretty box, but I wouldn't say it's ugly and it's hidden for me. Not the type that likes to display all my devices across in front of the TV. lol

My only gripe would be the 4G storage as I'm already topped out. It recognizes my USB stick just fine, but doesn't allow me to migrate apps to it, or utilize it for additional storage in any way. I saw some post on solving USB stick issues with ADB commands, but those are dated post so not sure if they're even worth trying on Android 10. Has anyone figured out how to use additional storage on it?

Nokia Streaming Box 8000

For those looking for a new Android TV device I highly recommend the Nokia Streaming Box 8000 (if available in your area - otherwise try sourcing it from all the usual channels). Internally it is more similar to the new Google Chromecast with Google TV than to the Nvidia Shield, but what makes it the killer box for me is it is currently the only real Android TV device to have a full remote control including all the number and colour buttons, making it much easier to eg watch television on the box.
