Is it just turning of surface media codec that solves it for you or do you have to turn off both? RE: NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box) - gkf9 - 2015-12-02 I turned both off, going to try add each one back and see what happens,there's no harm in giving it ago.

Let me know. I'd be intrigued if it was the new surface stuff that caused it. RE: NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box) - gkf9 - 2015-12-02 Have you give it ago?

I plan to connect the Shield TV to my TV through HDMI and was hoping to use USB audio to connect to my Sonos Play:5. 1. Is this possible - delivering video through HDMI and audio through USB? 2. Also, what is the best way to obtain 3.5mm output from the USB port? Thanks a lot for any guidance. RE: NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box) - Kashika - 2015-12-02 Hi guys, Just got my shield setup. I've got a QNAP NAS which also had XBMC running, so I've already had a similar setup ready. I got that setup working with NFS, but I cannot for the life of me figure out why my Shield cannot browse folders via NFS. It works with SMB though and I can play my files. The permissions via my NAS are correct (since NFS works on another XBMC setup). Whenever I browse the network for folders, I can see my NAS' IP address. And then I can highlight my video folder, but I cannot select it. Adding it doesn't help and won't let me view any files. The reason I'm trying to use NFS is because my bigger files have terrible audio stutter. The video is seconds ahead of the audio and at some point it just cuts away completely, bringing me back to the main menu. I'm hoping accessing my files via NFS solves this. I'd really appreciate some help with this, if anyone knows what I'm talking about RE: NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box) - underworld123 - 2015-12-02 (2015-12-02, 22:46)Kashika Wrote: Hi guys, I have had similar issues in the past. In my experience, instead of browsing for NFS shares, you may be better off manually typing the path in "Add Network Location". You can use the other Kodi installation to obtain the full path or better just copy the sources.xml file from the old installation.

Just tried this, but I get the message "Remote share; Couldn't connect to network server". It also warns me when trying to add it that it might not be able to sync properly because it cannot find the network drive.

Can you access the folder from other devices? I am wondering that your NFS shares may not be set correctly. RE: NVIDIA Shield (Android TV set-top box) - Kashika - 2015-12-03 They might not be. I've set permissions to the IP address of my Shield, then gave it full access and permissions for the folder (and all subfolders) I want to add. Though I have to admit that I just installed a nightly APK and now everything runs smoothly. No more stuttering playback as of yet. I have no idea why, because the only difference I can see is that the GUI is now rendered in 1080P instead of 2160P. Anybody know why the Android TV app just won't work properly? |
