[Standard APK Version] Laggy experience with playback and home screen

[Weevillo 30]

Hi, so I've been trying out the mobile apk on my Shield TV and the user experience has been very inconsistent quality-wise.

A few things that has happened:

• First frame frozen until I paused and replayed from start (random occurrence, often ASS heavy shows)
• ASS subtitles on-screen freezes the video until they disappears
• Pictures loading in slowly making it "laggy" to navigate the home screens
• Very small show logo and clock in the OSD (not directly topic-related, but anyhow)

If log is needed I can go out of my way to create one.

Hi mate, I must be missing something here.. Why would you load a mobile apk onto a Android TV device? Who told you to do that? That's just wrong!

Hi, it's not a mobile apk. It supports all form factors.

By the way was wondering: Is this apk version the same as this one and is it possible to get the platform-wide (Android) from the Play store? Or only side-load?
