Yup looks like they are having a fair few issues. I only saw the flashing release notes issue but it looks to install fine on mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBers 6742 Posted January 27, 2020 Author Share Posted January 27, 2020 Just updated one my 2015 Shields and on reboot, it's telling me there's an update available. ABOUT says it's still version 8.0.1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBers 6742 Posted January 27, 2020 Author Share Posted January 27, 2020 I'm wondering if they've put a different image up, as originally it was 250Mb, whereas now, on a 2nd try, it's 905Mb. All 3 of my Shields are now updated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All 3 of my Shields are now updated. From a quick glance at the thread it looks like they put up the full update rather than an incremental. Mine was 250MB too and updated fine.

They really seem to be developing a bad track record with these initial updates... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammy 735 Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Looking at the Change Log it doesn't seem they're changing much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilhelmStroker 96 Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Looking at the Change Log it doesn't seem they're changing much. but to be fair to them they're still supporting 5 year old devices which for Android is great. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightsout 144 Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Seems like its been more miss that hit for these updates for a while now, I am leaving mine alone until I need to update. I currently have to leave color space switching off for it to actually work correctly. Which is odd but at least it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammy 735 Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Isn't fixing color space one of the things in the change log? Maybe the biggest thing in the change log? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightsout 144 Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Isn't fixing color space one of the things in the change log? Maybe the biggest thing in the change log?I thought there was something related to Dolby vision. But they've messed up the color space thing so many times I'm not touching it. The hotfix that I'm on was supposed to fix it. But currently off=on. Although apparently 709 material is sent in a 2020 container. Which doesn't affect my setup but causes issues with some projectors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deathsquirrel 741 Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Darn it, still not fixing the one bug I care about. PGS subtitles where the text isn't filled in, just a black outline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is not an Nvidia issue. The player simply doesn't support mult-layer PGS subs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acemt 1 Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Just purchased a 2019 Shield tv. First thing I did was try to install EMBY. It won't work, as confirmed by their tech support who tried to do the same thing. You cannot go to the OK button to sign in. I tried with the PIN, didn't work. I tried with manual sign in. There is no way to make it through after entering your info because you cannot get to the OK button at the end. Confirmed by Nvidia tech support who tried to do the same thing. Also tried to login with IP address. Same problem. Mark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, thanks that worked. Still couldn't get connect to work where Plex went off without a hitch. Tried multiple times before I entered my lengthy password.
