Been looking for something like this for a while now.
To clone my Kodi setup on my Nexus Player, do I simply?
1. Connect my Nexus Player
2. Hit Backup, and store the file somewhere on my desktop
3. Disconnect my Nexus Player
4. Connect another Nexus Player
5. Hit Restore and select the file stored in step 2

adbShield can have multiple devices connected, no need to disconnect.
Given two devices connected, Nexus1 & Nexus2.
1. Select Nexus1 from the Current Devices combobox
2. Backup Nexus1 to a folder on your PC
3. Select Nexus2 from the Current device combobox
4. Restore backup folder from step two to Nexus2.
Are the backups incremental?
My FTV is wired but my laptop is on crappy wireless, and backing up 3 GB of userdata will be a PITA...

No.
Backing up 1.6Gb of data via wifi takes 15 minutes here...but my wifi is excellent.

This software is intended for Android TV devices.
For Fire TV, http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=198873
adbShield does work on the Stick, but lacks Amazon-only features present in
adbFire. In any case, to diagnose your error, start by examining the log.
Trying this on the Nvidia Shield TV and Though it shows the IP and shows connected, it says unauthorized in the box next to that. So far I've failed to install any apk's.
What am I missing?

Typically, a dialog is supposed to pop up on the Android device where you click a checkbox to authorize the connecting computer. I've yet to see this dialog on my Shield. I found that after I click the "refresh adb" button a time or two, the status suddenly changes to "device" and all is well.
