Just got myself Nvidia Shield TV Pro. Great device. Plex 4K local stream ran smoothly. Before this having issue with audio codec and subtitles.
Congrats...There's a reason it's know as "The King of Boxes"..

Hey.... While it's easier to simply install and update apps via the Google Play Store.. Safer too.. but since you are already in this position, you might as well live with what you have. Perform a factory reset or uninstall as much stuff you believe is crap. I prefer lean running machines. Then hop over to websites such as
APKMirror and or
APKPure to grab the apps you need. These 2 are reasonable safe to download from. Alternatively, you can install their dedicated "installer" apps. Which makes them an unofficial source for "one-click" app installs and maintenance.. Just like Google's Play Store.

Hi all sifu, I'm new to TV box. I need some recommendations from you sifus
I am planning to use it to passthrough to my AV Receiver. Looking to be able to support
Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos , DTS X. I have been surveying and found that Himedia Q10 Pro & Zidoo Z9S seems to fit my requirements. Would these 2 be a good option? I can find from zidoo website that it support most of the format I need but not in Himedia's page no mention of Dolby Vision but it says it support Dolby Audio not not specifically mention which exact ones.
I assume that if I use the media player to pass through to my AVR for processing I don't need to care about the format support of of the TV box? Is my assumption correct? Please recommend other options if you have in mind 🙏
Being able to support all 3 is the main concern... If just DA + DTS:X? Zidoo Z9S can.. AFAIK, Neither the Z9s nor HiMedia does DV. Just HDR10.

Just got the Nvidia Shield Pro for RM899.
Everything so far is much better than my old cheapo android box. I don't have unifi at my new place yet so can't try out true 4K content but even 1080p looks much much better than under my old box.
I think the remote is fantastic too. A triangle may not seem intuitive but it's actually very ergonomic in the hand. Any other remove and you'd feel like putting the remove down once you've pressed the buttons you need. This one actually feels like it's nice in the hands so I find myself holding on to it.
One quick question. I have local content on my USB connected drives that Kodi can read easily enough. I tried Plex and I first have to add the local folder via the webapp, and I also need to have a internet connection to access the local USB files? Am I missing something here?
Obviously... haha
Kodi...Kodi... Kodi...
