I have two shields and they are amazing, but Plex crashes on every wmv file I have come across. Even forcing a lower quality to transcode using the server causes Plex to crash. It happens on the Plex android app on the phone but forcing server transcoding works. I can't figure out how to make Plex wmv files work on the shield. I don't have many, but it's annoying on my older family videos. This has been happening for years so I don't think it will ever be fixed. If anyone knows of any settings combination on Plex to properly force transcoding so wmvs don't crash on start you will be my hero.

This is really amazing for streaming games, with not too outdated home networking setup you can play PC game on your TV(via moonlight/sunshine), play console games (PS/Xbox) in another room or even Geforce Now cloud gaming(Good Internet required).

Nothing. Shield supports lossless codecs, great backlit remote, more powerful cpu than other streamers, plex server support, external storage support (2 usb3.0), ethernet port, 4k HDR10 DV, and even gaming. I primarily use it to playback my remux ripped library for lossless audio.Bottom line: Buy it if you want the best fastest lossless streamer.Alternative: Otherwise get an ONN device for $20 for a great value Google TV device. ONN also has a Pro model for $50 with more horsepower/snapper, ethernet, etc.
Love my onn Google device

A lot of people won't like it, but honestly the Apple TV 4K 4th(?) Gen is pretty good with Infuse. I don't know what it's missing that the Shield has though. edit: seems like you don't get true atmos support. https://www.reddit.com/r/appletv/...vs_nvidia/
The AppleTV, even with the Infuse app, is missing Dolby TrueHD and DTS-X audio support for playing blu-ray rips. You can buy a cheap Firestick Max for to complement your Apple TV, and you will have everything you need. I use my AppleTV for everything except playing blu-ray rips.

A couple of things. Lon.TV on Youtube has done several shows revolving around this streamer. He says it is still the only one that will handle everything your home theater systems throw at it. Also, it has had two (2) updates in the recent months, one just last week for me. Pretty amazing box, and my favorite streamer. This is a great price if you can manage it.

It is older family videos. I transcoded them, but the quality looks slightly less than the originals and the originals are not super high quality as it is. I would prefer to be able to play them as wmv's on demand, but Plex isn't having any of it.

Can someone provide step by step instructions? There's no 30% Instacart cash back that I see in Paypal. I scrolled through several pages of cash back websites and don't see this.
Did you try the paypal app?

Can you advise on voice settings on Nvidia shield for handling DTS-HD MA, Dolby Atmos, True HD, HDR?

Are you referring to lower conversation volume? If you have a receiver or soundbar, it should be handled from there.
