Too bad most other streaming boxes suck ass and are full of ads. Begging Android TV manufacturers to use a decent SoC for once.
nvidia shield or a pc
I bought the high end nvidia shield last year and just out of warranty both the bluetooth and wifi chips died. It's basically a brick now and I am probably never going to buy another. Even more stupid as I have an old tube-shield that is still running just fine from like 2018. I ended up installing https://libreelec.tv/ on an old pi 4 I had lying around. HDR, multi-language subtitles, using existing TV remote over HDMI-CEC, all work. That being said, I only use it for Jellyfin.
I hope anyone use using a shield does not have the same experience I did.
Did you try a warranty claim? Nvidia is pretty well-reputed for being flexible about that sort of thing. The warranty is 2 years in some countries, so it's not like a huge leap that they'd honor it for one bought last year.
the apple addiction is too strong
Woah, gold mine of info and ideas 👀 thanks for posting this
"block YouTube ads using a flaw in the Google Protocol Buffer"... until google fixes it, that is.
Still, super cool finding!
