So what in your opinion is the best paid vpn for android tv(chromecast)

Hi all,

I've been looking around but can't find a definitive answer.

I know that multiple controllers can be connected to the new Chromecast with Google TV but I'm getting mixed results when it comes to actually using more than one.

For example, if I wanted to emulate Mario Kart, I have no doubt that I could connect any Bluetooth controller (or wired) and be on my way but what if I wanted to play local co-op? Is it possible for 2 (or more) Bluetooth (or wired) controllers to be connected to the new Chromecast with Google TV AND active at the same time, allowing for local co-op?

So i have a tcl Android tv which supports HDR10+, i have watched the boys and jack ryan on it and in most of the episodes it just loads HDR10 instead of 10+, and closing and training again and again and every 5-6 times, it once opens up the 10+ , but next time its standard 10 again

Also the subtitles are delayed by like 2 seconds which is annoying to say the least, if anyone has any solutions for the above problems pls share

(I tried deleting the app and reinstalling it)

EDIT 1: Manually updating the firmware(linked in comments) increased performance alot and the next day prime Video HDR bug fixed itself, its now constantly loading HDR10+

PS. The subtitles still lag by 2-3 seconds so i ended up disabling subtitles

Hi, as per title, I'm wondering if it's possible to auto power off a device when changing hdmi input?

For example, on my sony bravia android tv, my sly box is plugged into hdmi port 1 and my nvidia shield is plugged into hdmi port 2. The reason I'm looking for this automated feature is because I'd like to be able to power off any streaming service on the shield if someone changes over to sly if I'm not home so that no data is being wasted.

Not sure if possible, but any help appreciated. Thanks

Is there any ways to fix 4k video stutter while watching with subtitle?

I tested in kodi and vlc. Both player stutter when watching with subtitle.

Subtitles disabled and everything is fine.

Is there any ways to fix it?

(Edit: Messed up the title. Hope you get the meaning.)

I replaced my Chromecast gen 2 with a 2019 shield, and it works great except that it won't turn on my receiver. Turning the reciever off (or power-save mode to be clear) works fine, but once off the shield won't turn it on again. The Chromecast never had this issue and it's plugged in the same port. Anyone got any ideas?

I've recently bought a mi Android TV 4A, I just want command using Google Assistant my TV when it is turned off. I've also noticed that is impossible to get linked using Chromecast connection if my TV is off, Google Assistant is not able to reach the device. So, in other words, if the TV is off , it is dead. I have been using Chromecast for years and I am able to do that (thanks to HDMI-CEC), and I just want it behaves like an external Chromecast device. It is possible to achive that? Thanks.

I am trying to set up my grandmother with a way to video call folks but I'm not particularly a fan of having to make a Facebook account for her. Does anyone know if a tv that runs android tv can recognize and use a webcam for Duo or something like that?

On a Apple TV you can ask Siri to play a random episode of any show, is it possible on a Google TV or any android TV for that matter?

Is there any better app than Nova Video player...What I mean better is better UI...interface aint that customizable in Nova Player...even though all I need is in the app...the only problem is UI...so is there any app with same anything that catches metadata and with all the features but good UI

I’m considering getting a mibox and saw it doesn’t have a physical connection only WiFi. The box will sit near the router which seems a bit of a shame since I have great download speeds. My question is how much of an impact using the wifi over a physical connection will have on streaming 4K content.

I have connected my Xbox One S controller to my Hisense Android TV (9.0). Everything seems to work great except it doesn't register the menu or start button or pushing down on the joysticks. When I go to Steam Link button mapping, I can't map those buttons at all and it doesn't seem to register at all.

Any thoughts or ideas? I've tried updating the controllers firmware, it's on the latest software via Xbox Accessory app. I've also unpaired and tried new batteries.

Does the new Chromecast with Google TV play media from the DirectTV Now service without casting? From my research, only the Roku hardware has an app for DirectTV Now.........
