How to quickly switch accounts inside Youtube app? Mi Box S 4k

Hey all, just a quick question because I can do this easily with my firestick 4k, but with Mi box, I'd need to add my google account on the box' settings itself, and switch from there so it's not as seamless as switching from inside the YouTube app. Maybe I am missing something here..

I also noticed the YT app on the Mi Box does not save my search history.

I'm already running Android 9

Xfinity Stream App for New TV with AndroidTV OS?

Hello!

I'm need to purchase a new TV and I'd like to get one with AndroidTV as the OS. Right now I'm leaning toward the Sony X800H or the Hisense H9G. Is it possible to install and use the Xfinity Stream app on these TVs? A friend has a Hisense with the Roku OS and there is a fully supported beta app available on his TV that works just like the regular cable box. We have mostly Google devices in our home (Home speakers, Home Hub, Chromecasts, Pixel phones, etc), so I'm intrigued by AndroidTV, but we're also Comcast subscribers and would love to be able to get rid of our cable box and just use the app on the TV. Thanks in advance and be well, all!

USB Remote Control for Philips TV

I have Philips philips 49pus6501/12 android tv. But I'm having issues with the original remote. It sleeps when leave it on the couch automatically and wakes after 40-50 button pushes. I couldn't find any solution. Some people changed their remotes with original ones but the problem still continues.

I wonder if I figure it out with buying some USB plug-in remote controller like this one https://www.amazon.com/X-Strong%C2%AE-Control-Wireless-Receiver-Android/dp/B014CFO2XY?ref_=fsclp_pl_dp_1

I will stop using the original philips remote and use usb remotes instead if that works. Any ideas?

Send text input to Android TV

Hi everyone, as we all know the Android TV remote control app can be used to type in text to Android TV, I was wondering if there was any way to do this outside of the app, in terminal preferably. Can anyone who is familiar with Android TV help on how this could be done?

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

EDIT: I see this website here might be useful (I have a Sony TV) https://pro-bravia.sony.net/develop/integrate/rest-api/spec/service/appcontrol/v1_0/setTextForm/index.html but I have no idea how to use it, can someone help me out?

EDIT 2: Found how to do it on Sony TV's with a keyboard open on the TV:

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" \

-H "X-Auth-PSK: [PSK GOES HERE]" \

-X POST \

-d '{"id": 20, "method": "setTextForm", "version": "1.0", "params": ["hello world"]}' \

It doesn't matter how I set up my Mi TV 4S 55" there's always ~100ms of input lag.

Prior to buying this TV I've read some reviews and the input lag should be around 38ms when "Noise Reduction" and "Motion Smooth" are set to off.

I think I've already tried every possible combination of picture and audio settings and HDMI properties like 2.0, CEC and also went into the Android developer options and the Xiaomi Factory Settings menu (which looks horrible, by the way) but the input lag is always exactly the same.

When I disable NR and MS I can see a difference in the image. It is definitely off! But the input lag does not change at all.

Any ideas what to try next?

Apps for Android TV blocked for some devices?

I have an ematic Jetstream from Walmart. My father has an Nvidia shield pro. We like to tell each other about different apps we have found for movies and such. I have started to notice that some apps that my father can install I can't. Also I have found some apps online that say Android TV and it says not available on my device. Has anyone else noticed this?

Android TV and Google Home Issues

So up until last week I was living by myself and I was able to control my Android TV perfectly fine through my Google Home Mini (power on/off, volume, spotify, etc.)

As of this week I moved in with my girlfriend and she also had Google Homes so we created a new house with all the Google Homes and the TV. However, now I am unable to do literally anything to the TV via the Google Home. Casting still works, but nothing else. I've tried uninstalling updates on the Google and Chromecast Built-In apps as well as logging out and back in to the TV and nothing.

Telling Google Home to turn off the TV results in "Sure", but then nothing happens.

Any ideas? This is so incredibly frustrating as it was working perfectly fine last week and I even had a speaker group going.

IPTV > Enigma2 > ? > Live Channels/TV

After having trouble with my EPG I decided to include my providers iptv channels into my enigma2 box into a separate bouquet.

Then I mapped the channels with echannelizer to the corresponding DVB channels to fetch correct EPG with EPG importer plugin.

Then i moved on to my Sony Television and that's where I'm struggling right now. I've tried so far Dream Player TV and PVR live to import my enigma2 bouquet into Live Channels. At first it looks like everything went fine but live channels can't connect to the stream. The display stays black and after some seconds a warning appears that the source is unexpectedly unavailable. The curious thing is, that I can watch the channels without problems in Dream Player natively.

Where did I go wrong and what else can I try to watch my channels through live channels/tv?

Any advice is appreciated.

Android games Tomb Raider 1 & 2 disappeared. Why's that?

It's really strange. I just got my PHILIPS Ambilight 55PUS8204/12 55" Smart 4K TV today. As it's an Android TV, I signed in using my Google account and it suggested apps. Three of them were the games Tomb Raider, TR 2, and Evoland.

I thought, that it would be a fun idea to try them out on my TV so I checked the download tick box next to each. They were added to my queued download list amongst all the other apps like Twitch, Steam Link ect.

However, I had an update to do. It appeared to add Youview feature for my TV, and although it warned me that I'll lose everything through the reboot, I was confident I'll just redownload everything. Weirdly, enough the three games mentioned are missing in the Google Play Store and aren't searchable.

Has the new firmware purged them?

Shield TV Pro VS Ematic Jetstream VS Mi Box S

Hello all. Couldn't find a Discord server so figured I'd post. I've been using a Fire Stick TV for the longest time and it has given me nothing but issues, even after modifying my WiFi network. So I am looking to upgrade to an Android TV Box and need some advice.

For context, right now I have a 1080p 50" not-Smart TV. I do plan on upgrading to a 4K TV in the future, but (due to COVID and financial reasons) currently I just need a good media device for streaming Netflix, Plex, etc. but I am also interested in using Game Streaming so I can play games from my Gaming PC (Steam, etc.)

I don't want to spend the $200 on a Shield TV Pro unless it's worth it over the other two. Just need some opinions. Thank you much.

I have a TCL Android TV running 9.0 and whenever I play 4K 60fps videos, I feel like there's a split second stutter, be it YouTube or a flash drive (not very fast). Could it be that the TV isn't good enough or should i try and reset?
