I've tried sideloading the Sky Go app. Unfortunately it knows it's connected by a HDMI cable and won't let you use it

Good old sky!!! Never make anything easy or simple.

Maybe yours only has a couple of them

Can the release source code from Zidoo help Kodi to play 3D.ISO in the shield?

Martijn?

1) You can now select between 50/60/23.976Hz for both 1080p and 2160p
2) 23.976 is 23.97542Hz
3) I didn't see 59.94Hz mode
4) Kodi doesn't seem to be switching refresh rates at all (15.rc2, will have to check this further).
4) HD audio passthrough works in Android Video player
5) Dolby Digital Plus 7.1 passthrough is still broken
6) 7.1 LPCM output is broken

This might need a fix that's waiting to be approved for merger to our master branch for 16 builds, and I believe (but not sure) that the release of 15.2 may have been delayed to ensure any fix will be backported to 15.2 branch.
Expanded codec and container support:
-Adds pass-through support for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio lossless audio*
-Adds MPEG2, VC-1, and WMV9 hardware-acceleration*
-Adds M2TS, ASF, and WMV container support for VC-1
-Adds WMA audio support (including WMA Pro, and WMA Lossless)

*These features are supported by the native Photo & Videos app. Other media players are expected to add support soon.

23.976 Hz playback support
Allows advanced media enthusiasts to force the display refresh rate to 23.976 Hz for 23.976 Hz content like most Google Play movies, Netflix movies, and Blu-ray movie files. Enable this feature in Settings > Device > HDMI > Resolution. Note: This setting should not be used for playing games or for watching videos that display at higher refresh rates.
How is it with Live-TV and deinterlacing and video scaling?
Its the only thing thats keeping me from getting one.
Using an old Intel Atom with Nvidia ION and Ubuntu now and its works so great but the computer is so slow.
The backend is Tvheadend but that shouldnt matter.

Check my post on Nvidia forum, or the whole thread:

The number keys don't work. Most other keys are available in some fashion. Best results are a bluetooth/IR combo with two devices for the Shield. IR is needed for sleep/wake and the home & OK key. Everything else is slightly faster via bluetooth commands.

Tinwarble's post @ https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic...7/#4629097 is the best guide for what you can do.

I know that audio passthrough still doesn't work but can anyone compare the Kodi experience on the Shield to running OpenElecon a chromebox? is it noticeably faster loading menus, etc?

I'm on the fence about getting one right now
