How to "fix" the Adobe Flash problem and YouTube live videos not working with Android TV

by TheSubtitlesAreReal

Posting this since I couldn't find any help when I needed and this can probably save time for people who have the same problem with their Android TV.

I recently got my Android TV, mostly because I wanted to stream from a specific website. However, that website didn't have an app for the TV. No problems I thought and went on the built in browser. Everything goes fine until I click play. That's when it tells me I need to install Adobe Flash, which obviously doesn't exist.

So after Googling for at least an hour I couldn't believe flash wasn't supported by the browser. Even trying to find a browser like Chrome or FireFox in the market was no success...

Finally, I found a solution though. By installing Puffin Browser I finally got the stream website to work fine.

Also, when it comes to updating apps, some apps don't even show up in the "my applications" section. For instance, YouTube live videos didn't work, I kept getting an error. After actually searching for YouTube on market it told me it had an update. Interesting.
