How about a video on developer options. The best setting in that section

[@opulent1]

Yes additional videos on Nvidia Shield Pro Settings...Please

[@SwiftChon]

Hi there and thank you for the content. If you would have to choose between a NVidia Shield TV Pro and a Zidoo Z20 Pro, which one would you prefer and why?

[@fivelevels]

You're most welcome. You'll find the answer to your question in the below videos: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a5nblqR7j72BppIsi=yDQ9wXM8u3Y-rpse kzbin.info/www/bejne/p3a6k56nppl8rZYsi=pYEZ1pGkrlVaYkxP

[@user-zc1vc8id5w]

Thanks. One ?. I am not pc litterate and have a question. When I shut down laptop the Pro will not play my some apps like HD Homerun and some other programs. Thanks

[@shaunrichards744]

I match the audio bitrate over hdmi and let the receiver or processor do the decoding. Also ACC 5.1 won’t come out has 5.1 if nvidia shield does the decoding it comes out as only 2 channels.

[@balsam1972]

Do you get 5.1 audio out from Netflix, HBO Max and Disney+ or only stereo, and how does it run android apps in general?

[@fivelevels]

Yes sir.

[@vf581]

Faced with audio sync issues on Nvidia Shield TV pro + Plex, especially when >. Fixed by turning off the Dolby Audio Processing option (thx a good guy on reddit).

[@fivelevels]

Another solution for when this occurs. Stop the movie and exit, then play it again but don't fast forward or rewind during playback.

[@JaviFeer]

@fivelevels Thank you very much for l configuration, I have a jellyfin server the hz I have to enable the refresh rate option inside jellyfin? Or how could I do it? Thank you and sorry for my bad english

[@fivelevels]

Yes, it should be on the Jellyfin settings

[@SaravanaKumar-uf3gp]

Which is best high quality stereo or surround sound Please explain sir

[@tober1995]

HQ Stereo means only 2 speakers, surround sound means 5.1 it 7.1 surround. Depends on what speaker setup you have.

[@ericbraet7931]

Nice video. I have my Shield TV Pro coming next week. Use it mainly for Kodi. Question concering resolution (it's not very clear to me) : I have a 4k tv (LG C8). You advise to set the resol to 4K 59 Hz. But almost all movies streaming through Kodi, the framerate is 23,9. Therefore I had the intention to set the resolution in Shield to 4K 23,9 Hz. In Kodi I also have set "adjust display refresh rate" to On start/stop. Is this right what I have in mind ? If I set resol to 4K59Hz, I guess there will be stuttering. Or do I miss something ? Tnx for your reply.

[@fivelevels]

Thank you. I understand your concern, but the reason I recommend 4K 59Hz is for faster navigations in the menus and other apps. In Kodi and Plex there's an option that you can choose to match the original native frame rate and resolution of the movie during playback. So you don't have to worry about stuttering and fast motion.

[@ericbraet7931]

Tnx. Just to be sure : the option that I have set in Kodi "adjust display refresh rate" to on start/stop, am I right that this is the right setting in Kodi to choose to match the original native frame rate and resolution ? Tnx.

[@fivelevels]

@@ericbraet7931 I don't remember the name of the option on Kodi as I mostly use Plex. But I'll check later and let you know.

[@GoldFus1on]

What addon to use anime/movies/tv shows?

[@fivelevels]

@GoldFus1on The Play Store has many online media streaming apps. Just do more research about them on Google to know more about their content. I mainly use Plex to stream from my local media server.

[@billpapadopoulos9650]

great video can you please do a video on all nvidia settings

Hi, wanted to ask what media player app do you use to watch plex? is it the default player?

[@fivelevels]

Plex has its own integrated player

[@waleedabulfateh7509]

@@fivelevels I’m currently using stremio with realdebrid and i do have a home theater i was wondering if you knew any media player that play all codecs such as dolby true hd? Any recommendations on which media player app to chose for such codecs?

[@waleedabulfateh7509]

I have noticed that VLC doesn’t support dolby true hd. Exo player does but limited in settings.

[@fivelevels]

@@waleedabulfateh7509 it's better to use Plex on shield as it offers the best playback

[@ironpatriot8556]

They should give us a new console Nvidia.

[@GoldFus1on]

They need to bring back gamestream. How is it legal to just remove one of the core apps that was advertised with the shield upon purchase

[@flogtwo]

They won't

[@olle8002]

Most movies are filmed at 24fps, so 24Hz is adequate for playback without noticeable stutter or judder.

[@fivelevels]

Plex will automatically detect and switch to the native movie frame rate to play it accordingly.

[@87CREW]

@@fivelevels What about the native streaming apps like Netflix and such? These also automatically go to 24p? Many thanks in advance.

[@fivelevels]

@@87CREW Yes sir

[@87CREW]

@@fivelevels Many thanks!! 🙂

[@bobwomack135]

Just watched your video and the one thing you need to make clear for the settings you setup is you need state how your shield is connected. Is your shield directly connected to your tv and your sound is being sent to a avr via ARC or is it plugged directly into your avr and having the video pass through the aver to your tv. Just need clarity as the setup would be different as to which way the shield is connected.

[@fivelevels]

Thank you for watching. It's connected directly to my AVR and the video signal is using the hdmi pass-through from the AVR to the TV.

[@xanderx9988]

@@fivelevelsI just bought mine today and was contemplating whether I should connect it to my lg c9 or avr. Is there a difference in video &/or audio quality depending on which one I connect it to?

Did you manage to get 4k resolution on apple tv app using nvidia shield?

[@fivelevels]

Yes sir

[@EvaggelosSinapidis]

Could you please provide any details on how to? I get average resolution (I confirm if I remove ai upscaling). Internet connection and device connection are good for sure. No issues with Netflix or Amazon

[@fivelevels]

@EvaggelosSinapidis Use the same settings that I have shown in the video and make sure that you have a strong internet speed. Mine is 200 Mbps, and my shield is connected to a switch with 1 Gbps speed. I don't use Netflix. I only use apple TV app and Plex app as well as a couple other apps.

[@Mike8D]

Yes, please cover all settings🤗

Coming soon

[@tybo971]

I'll be waiting

[@NhuTech]

Can I hook up a NON bluetooth wireless mouse?

[@fivelevels]

Yes sir

[@JavierSN95]

Hello why should we put the audio format into manual and enable all of them instead of Auto?

[@fivelevels]

Do you have a sound system?

[@JavierSN95]

@@fivelevels yes a denon avr

[@fivelevels]

@JavierSN95 Then you need to do it manually the same steps in the video because some formats won't be detected if you leave it on auto. This is only important for people who have sound systems.

[@Madgitty2]

I have had 2 shields for a few years now and using plex, plex has got worse and worse to a point it’s stating to be unusable, looking to go elsewhere now, had enough

[@fivelevels]

I agree

[@rainham1]

open it and clean fan and add CPU thermal paste.

[@MrRaheezx]

Please, sir, I have a problem with the Nvidia Shield Pro device. I cannot find anything other than 720 in the resolution list, even though my TV is a new 4K device from LG. Please, sir, help me solve this problem.

[@fivelevels]

Update your TV operating system and make sure that you are using a high-quality certified hdmi cable. If the issue continues. Try to do a system factory reset for both devices

[@MrRaheezx]

I bought an HD cable from an approved place that reaches 8K, and unfortunately there is no change. It only shows me 720 in the device, and now I will do a restart and hope that the device works well.

[@MrRaheezx]

Unfortunately, nothing has changed. I cannot find anything other than 720 in the resolution list

[@MrRaheezx]

Unfortunately, nothing has changed. I cannot find anything other than 720 in the resolution list

@MrRaheezx Try formatting the TV and Nvidia Shield by performing a factory reset. And make sure you have the latest firmware update on both devices

Great video but slow down you explain really good but way too fast speaking 😅 ❤
