I swear, when they come out with a newer version of this, no one will be able to get one for years.

Easiest the best streaming player in existence - and I've tried them all. Reliable, stable, consistent and still gets updates years later.

Another use-case for me with the Shield is upscaling OTA channels. I have a HDHomerun on the network, use the app to watch OTA channels and the Shield upscales it nicely.

Can this sbc be programmed to have the same feature as the shield? AI upscaling, audio codec, plex server, etc.
The AI upscaling feature you're referencing, if I presume correctly is a proprietary NVIDIA feature, but unfortunately it can't be ported over to the rom I used to install Android TV 10/11 on the SBC so the short answer is no, however, that was never important for me to require since my main intention for the SBC was emulation and gaming. Other than that, it's capable of features such as "audio codec, Plex server, etc." you're inferring.

You're paying with your time to research and set it all up. So its basically a wash money wise, its more if you want to tinker around and all that. For me it depends, sometimes I want to tinker but more and more I want something to "just work". I almost got the 5800x3d and was reading about undervolting it to lower temps and all that jazz then thought who am I kidding I barely even game anymore, I should just get the 65w 5700x and be done with it.
I'm aware that my time is being traded for convenience which I referenced in my comment and it doesn't bother me since I'm a tinkerer. Idk a/b you regarding your competency level at modifying electronics, but I usually never shy away from those type of projects, and I'm also fairly familiar w/ configuring the BIOS settings for my X570/5800X rig which wasn't hard for me to do since I took the time to learn on my own. However, if you prefer your devices to be standard/stock/vanilla off the assembly line w/o the option to customize then more power to you.

Didnt search the thread but always want to share - anyone buying one of these and replacing a former model.....do not use the previous power cord. Yes, I know it fits, yes, I know it powers on.

You will experiece randon reboots on the new unit. So crawl back there and swap with the new one from the get-go.

If the amperage is the same, voltage as well, then should be fine.
If they are different, shouldn't use it.

Hi -

Currently my Samsung TV convert Youtube videos from 2.0 PCM to simulated 5.1 Sound. My family is well adjusted with the setup. However I am missing Dolby atmos because my TV cannot pass through aduio.
I want to passthrough sound from streaming device to Soundbar if Sound is Atmos, and send simulated 5.1 sound if it is a youtube video.
Can any Steamer do this?

I bought the 2017 when it first dropped for $150 directly from Nvidia. The old remote "was" cool since it was touch sensitive for the volume controls and nice it slender. However it was incredibly easy to lose being slim, accidentally touching the volume area can quickly change the volume level, and it just drains the two 2032 coin batteries.

I bought the newer/current triangular controller for $30 when that was released, it made the experience better. It lights up to the slightest movement or when in use. It's less likely to go into the deepest crevices of your couch or bed. The shield tv has a function to ping your remote if it's lost to which it'll ring. And it uses 2 AAA which lasted a good. It was worth the upgrade.

There's also a Shield TV app that can act as a remote, keyboard, or mouse. I only really use it when I can't find either of the remotes. I would install it just to use the find the remote function but turn off all of the phone functions when not in use.

This is my main streaming device. I have Rokus and fire sticks that seldomly get used but keep them for YouTube karoake while a streaming in another room. I did utilize the features like game stream, plex servers, sideloader, iptv etc. when it first came out.

Since then I moved to somewhere that has modest internet speed/service in a rural area, I slowly used those features less and share streaming services with distant siblings. Now everyone and their dog has apple products in my family, and I think I'm making the change to the ATV 4K for the simplicity of apple ecosystem, considering they're less than $100 these days.

For $180, know what you're buying it for. If you're savvy enough to dive into, things others have already stated, what makes this device so great, I definitely recommend it or consider T he next gen to come out.

Thanks and repped for the info.

The important thing is the new Shield remote or "air mouse" ones will work with the old 2017 Shield? ...
The new Shield remote works with the 2017 model.

Some of the benefits are outlined in this response: https://slickdeals.net/forums/showpost.php?p=160679629&postcount=283

old remote: battery cr2032, no lights, sensitive touch volume control, minimal weight
new remote: battery AA, lights, dedicated volume up/down buttons, weight feels heftier

Both can be paired with the Shield at the same time.
