Here’s the crux of the article in video form:
New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…
Original story (published on January 23, 2021) follows:
When it comes to set-top boxes that run on the Android TV OS, there’s a huge variety to choose from. But one of them, namely the NVIDIA Shield TV series, simply outshines the competition.
The series stands out like a sore thumb…but in a positive way. Most of this can be attributed to the fact that the Shield uses ultra-fast processors developed by NVIDIA themselves.
For example, the company’s latest offering dubbed as the NVIDIA Shield Pro 2019 makes use of the NVIDIA Tegra X1+ processor. This bad boy is capable of running AAA gaming titles like Just Cause and BioShock, and much more.
Apart from the gaming factor, the Shield also offers Dolby Vision & Atmos, AI Upscaling, and 4K HDR10 support, among other goodies.
And then there are the looks. They are eye-catching, to say the least, and manage to strike a perfect chord between being visually appealing for gamers as well as for regular users.
Simply put, the design is pretty bold yet minimalist enough at the same time. Sure, the sleekness of an Apple TV is nowhere to be seen, but it is pretty obvious that NVIDIA had a pretty different target audience in mind.
That said, the Shield TV, just like any other electronic device, does not come without a set of issues. After all, just like mistakes make us human, bugs make machine.
Hence, we have decided to keep track of all the bugs and issues that pop up every now and then on the various NVIDIA Shield TV models – be it the 2019, 2017, or even the 2015 releases.
Such bugs and issues would be tracked in the article and their status will be updated continuously in order to keep you informed. We also have a table dedicated to the same at the bottom of the article.
05:30 pm (IST): There were previously several reports about NVIDIA Shield TV music playback issues with Kodi and Amazon Prime unable to play content in 5.1 surround mode. Fortunately, they have been fixed as per support. Read more here.
04:18 pm (IST): A number of Redditors say the issue where HBO Max users could not enjoy 5.1 surround sound on various Android devices, including the Shield, is likely fixed. Details here.
11:28 am (IST): The Hulu app on the NVIDIA Shield TV 2019 models is now being upgraded to support 1080p video streaming, up from the current 720p. Details here.
01:38 pm (IST): An NVIDIA staff has confirmed that the Nvidia Shield TV’s ‘Can’t connect to NVIDIA. Try again later.’ error message was fixed a while ago.
Those who may still be facing the issue for some reason are advised to contact customer care using this link.
04:00 pm (IST): 1. NVIDIA staff has confirmed that they will be adding the ability to keep HDR off on HDR displays in a future release with HDR projectors. Details here.
2. The NVIDIA launcher app has seen troubles lately pertaining to scrolling. Users say that they’re unable to scroll down with both the Android app as well as the remote. Google is aware of the issue and is planning to fix it by the end of June at this time.
3. Some users report that AI upscaling is active during GFN streaming without even being enabled to which NVIDIA staff responded that they’re aware of the issue.
4. Some users report that trying to open the Discovery Plus app on the Shield results in an app crash. NVIDIA says that it is a Discovery+ issue.
5. Some users report that the match frame rate option works fine with 1080p but fails to work with 1440p. NVIDIA staff replied that they’ll ‘not be doing any development related to 1440p or PC monitors on Shield any time soon.’
6. A few users have reported that updating Backdrops to the latest version on the NVIDIA Shield 2017 has resulted in the screen saver flashing white before going into the screen saver mode. NVIDIA has the following to say regarding this:
Google made some necessary changes to the WebView application which now requires changes to the Daydream screen saver to avoid the white flash on startup. Google is working on an update to the Daydream app to resolve this white flash but we don’t have an ETA from them at this time. Source
02:16 pm (IST): Nvidia Shield Experience new update v8.2.3 fails to update after 20% for a lot of users but here’s a workaround for that.
02:20 pm (IST): An issue with AC3 codec being read correctly in Live Channels Tuner Beta mode is standstill at this moment. Nvidia has no help to offer as the issue is at Google’s end.
There is no change to the behavior there and the issue there is not related to the shield experience version. The issue there is a live channels app issue and the app is owned by google and separate from the shield experience version. At this point, it’s unlikely google will resolve the app issue so you need to use the workaround in that thread.
The AI upscaling issue has been reproduced and is already being worked upon by the Nvidia team. A fix will soon see the daylight.
The mouse click issue where it won’t be treated as a command when the mouse is being held still will also be addressed in early June, confirms support.
12:17 pm (IST): Several users have reported issues with Apple TV+ wherein sound keeps coming through the TV speakers instead of headphones. Nvidia has an explanation for the same:
