Ways to get Ustream or Livestream onto androidTV?

I watch a pre toonami stream on saturday night that shows various freshly subbed anime hot off the presses. it's a fun lil thing. Then at 11 is actual toonami streamed by a livestream user.

Question is, how do i go about watching both of these through android tv? (i have a shield tv first gen). Are there apps to sideload that work with android tv? is there some funky workaround i can use like using a desktop streaming app or a android tv friendly web browser that's flash enabled?

Mibox and deep color issues

I have a hisense h8c TV with the rtings calibration settings. Noticed the other day that deep color mode was off on my mibox. Upon turning it on, it seems like the reds are ridiculously high. Blowing out all the other colors by a lot. It looks terrible with it on.

Is there a bug with the deep color mode on the mibox?

[SHIELD TV] manage shared storage from your phone with google's new app.

Google released a samba client and i found it to be very useful for managing the storage of my shield remotely. It's the only app i used that has worked flawlessly when it comes to copying, moving and deleting files. I usually do all this from my PC but sometimes it's more practical to use my phone or tablet and now i can.

I suppose this can work with other android tvs, as long as you have shared storage enabled.

How can I easily play movies over a network at home?

So I download a bunch of movies and then I put them on flash drive and then plug into the my Mi Box. I can probably setup a shared folder from my laptop, but I dont want my laptop always to be on. What is the alternative? I think I saw many years ago people get these small computers to just plug into an electrical socket and you just upload to that....but dont know if anything better is available since then.

Help with Android TV Integration with Plex/Kodi

Hi. I recently posted about my misfortunes regarding using the Plex app on Android TV, for details on why I can't use the Plex app please see https://www.reddit.com/r/AndroidTV/comments/6l9ux3/refresh_rate_limits_of_androidtv/djsmxhj/?context=3 (if anyone can throw any light on fixing the judder I would really appreciate it.

Anyway, onto the reason of this post.

I'm pretty certain i read somewhere that you can use Kodi with some sort of Plex addon that integrates Plex into Kodi and then Kodi integrates the Plex stuff with Android TV OS? The main reason I liked the Plex app was because of the Android TV integration, but using Plex for Kodi addon would mean I lose this functionality, something i'd rather not lose.

Could anyone point me in the right direction on what I am looking for, or am I completely lying to myself about seeing what I thought I saw?

When I play a ~2GB+ "1080p" movie, I sometimes get a stutter when its playing throughout the movie, eg. scenes where alot is changing on screen for example. Ive pinned it down to where this only happens with 1080p files. The latest beta update did not help.

Play Music - Listen Now Not Working

Just trying to see if anyone else has had this issue - I've done some searching and can't seem to find any answer other than, clear cache, uninstall updates, reboot device.

On both of my Shields and my LeEco, when I go into Google Play Music and choose the "listen now" suggested playlists, the majority of them never load the 2nd option.

e.g. I go to the lists and choose "Waking Up Happy" - which then should give me the choice of genre I want on the station, "Country Morning", "Feel-Good Rock", etc.

On my Android TVs, it lets me select the type of list but then never gets to the genre selection screen for most of the lists. The same 2 load the selection screen on all the devices, but the rest don't work at all.

Anyone?

Refresh rate limits of AndroidTV

Hi, a friend of mine got an Sony TV running AndroidTV, it clains to have native 120hz, but, he's complaining about judder, "any 120hz tv should have 24p judder free bla bla bla"

But, it has judder, and he is thinking that his tv is defective for some reason.

So, does AndroidTV, in a 120hz native display, runs at this refresh rate or the system runs locked at 30 or 60hz (30 / 60 fps)?

Mibox update

I have had nothing but issues with netflix playing on my mibox. I tried swapping cables, and between tv's but I could never get it to play. I even factory reset the device about 6 times with no luck. I hated fighting it.

The wife and I ran out to the store to buy a new sectional, when we came home and set it up the TV was too small :) So we went to BB to look at TV's.

I settled on the LG 60UH6035 4K and it is a great picture!

The only app the TV itself won't do is PS VUE so I dusted off the Mi box to watch some Sunday night TV and to my surprise Netflix works, everything works on the mibox on this TV, with the same HDMI cable is before, and sound hooked up the same way, HDMI to TV, Optical from TV to soundbar.

My older TV's were both Insignia, a 49 inch Plasma 720P and a 50 inch 1080P set from black friday a few years ago.

All i can say is this television has completely changed my opinion of this device.
