okay stupid question. How do you opt out of the beta on Android TV?

Posted

I should have a new beta for the Shield tomorrow that solves this.

 

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Posted

New beta (1.1.54) is on its way up to Play Store.

Posted

Note I just got an android tv (mxIII) same issue grey screen. Tried to load the normal emby app as well which just freezes the unit.

Anything else...?

Yes .ts files are playing (direct)! 

Posted

I'm noticing alot more files playing direct stream rather then transcoding which is nice, however when I stop playing a media file there is a loud popping/crackling sound that comes out of my speakers that lasts about 1-2 seconds, this doesn't happen with the stable version of the app.

Hmmm.... I have not seen that.

 

You didn't notice anything else different about the audio?

Sounds positive.

 

Does it do the same on the NP connected only to your TV?

Posted

Still no audio if track contains Dolby on latest version (1.1.55) on both Nexus Player and Shield.

 

Audio OK if not Dolby.

Posted

Both DTS and DD working perfectly from my Shield, direct playing and AVR confirms. Fantastic!

Precisely, it's connected to an AVR.

 

Try taking it out of the equation and see if it still works.

 

IE connect the Shield to the TV just via HDMI.

Has your TV got the necessary decoders, most do not and only have Dolby/DTS pass through ouputs? Have you tried switching to 'Compatible' audio in the Emby app?

Posted

That's the $64M question, Kodi gives me DD pass-through, but the Emby for Android TV app does not.

 

When VLC was being used in the app, I got audio, but since it has been removed, I get no audio.

Posted

Have you tried unplugging and replugging the HDMI cable into the Shield with a full reboot as well?

Yes.

 

It's not the hardware or the connection, it's the app.
