RE: NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box) - hdmkv - 2016-03-26 BTW, I'm loving using latest SPMC on Shield... it's great to have suggestions from own Kodi library show up on the main Android TV menu, at the top. Nice work Koying!

RE: NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box) - pameijer - 2016-03-26 Can the Shield with SPMC now play all DVD images with menus correctly? I would like to replace all my mediacenters (2x Apple TV 1st Gen with CrystalBuntu and OSMC, Apple TV 3rd gen. and Vero) with the Shield, but I have a lot DVD images. Only the Apple TV with CrystalBuntu can play everything, the rest have different problems, especially with certain dvd-menus.

I usually stream movies from a remote linux server via FTP to kodi but I can't get it to connect to the ftp server. I tried ES File Explorer as well to try and connect to the FTP server but it's also not working. I don't know if this a bug with Shield TV? But it works fine on my old android TV box. I used to have the same issue with ES File Explorer, was driving me crazy. I found that it would work on Wifi, but not if the ethernet port was connected. Eventually, I found that using a different app solved the issue. The FTP app I'm using is 'FTP Server': https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.theolivetree.ftpserver&hl=en_GB Very easy to use and have been using that ever since on the Shield. Download the APK to a USB stick and hook it up to your Shield. Use ES File Explorer to open the APK and install. Hope that helps RE: NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box) - bry - 2016-03-27 (2016-03-25, 22:26)locki Wrote: buy 500gb model i wasting money ...

Unless you want to put a lot of games and ROM's on the internal drive. Even then, a large mSD should perform as well I'd think.

RE: NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box) - hdmkv - 2016-03-27 The 500GB is more convenient if you think you'll use 50% or more of that storage. Especially for that price difference. On mine, I have a number of space-hogging Android games installed, as well as emulator games. RE: NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box) - bry - 2016-03-27 Yeah. That's part of the plan. To use it for gaming as well.

Especially with Super Mario Galaxy with 8xMSAA via gamestreaming.

RE: NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box) - Vidman - 2016-03-28 PC based emulators yes with gamestream RE: NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box) - FilmFreakz - 2016-03-29 Did someone tested 3D-Iso/MVC-MKVs with SPMC on the Shield device? In a german board, someone succeeded to play 2 of his 4 Blu Rays with proper 3D decoding... I would immediately buy a Shield, if 3D is held out in prospect by Nvidia/Koying/Kodi-Developers RE: NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box) - hdmkv - 2016-03-29 I'd be amazed if that was true... I tested SPMC on AMLogic S812 & S905, and MVC 3D did not work. Will test on Shield later today and report back. RE: NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box) - FilmFreakz - 2016-03-29 That would be very nice of you ! Thanks... I was also amazed, that this MAYBE could work. The guy at that forum posted 3 pics from his Mad Max Blu Ray; and it looks, as if he managed to get 3D working... i can post the link to that thread - if it's ok to do so?

Or maybe I'll grab a NUC instead - but my hi10p needs... |
