I don't understand this question?

You posted the same information twice, didn't have time to a/b every word, so I asked before I deleted the second post. Just a reminder not to duplicate messages.

For those wanting a more reliable cheap Air Mouse remote, there is a lot of love over on Reddit for this....

I believe it has it’s own RF receiver dongle. These types of setups are usually ultra reliable.

Luckily my Fire TV remote works with the Shield; I just wish they'd work with the Apple TV 4K though as that remote is annoying as hell.

I just wished the Shield would have a remote with volume buttons. Can't stand the current volume slider operation....
If somebody at Nvidia were ever to read this, it would no doubt be with a huge sigh and thoughts of something like "Volume buttons on a remote control are just so 20th Century"..... Smile

You can turn off the volume slider in the settings.

The new firmware seems to have changed the volume OSD, anyone experiencing this issue?

They'll tweak it for the hotfix:

What is your receiver/audio device?

My HTIB still doesn’t give me DD5.1 due to the lack of Dolby transcoding license thing.

Since upgrading to shield experience 8.0 I no longer get passthrough of surround sound to my receiver via Kodi. Is anyone else experiencing the same?

I've tried every combination of settings in the Shield Audio Formats config, along with Kodi.

It worked fine before the update. Any ideas?


RE: nVidia Shield TV (2015 & 2017 Models) - UPDATED: May 25, 2018 - Hitcher - 2019-08-06

It's working the same as before for me so a debug log is probably needed to find out what's wrong with your setup.
