How-to

Install Firefox Tv

Reference:

• https://androidtvnews.com/android-tv-web-browser/
• Youtube - Install Firefox On Android TV OS Devices like NVIDIA SHIELD TV and Xiaomi Mi Box

First method:

• In Google Play Store, install downloader app.
• In download app, download https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-tv/releases/download/v4.7.1/firefox-tv-4.7.1.apk
• Install apk, and if necessary, give permission to install external apk. Apk can be deleted afterwards.

Second method:

• Download firefox tv release on some network drive accessible to Shield Pro (mounted).
• In Google Play Store, install the simple File Manager from HiMedia.
• Visit the (mounted) network share, and select the apk.

Install a file explorer

Let's try a simple file explorer to easily find the latest downloaded video.

Some candidates (see also [1]):

• https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/com.mixplorer

MiXplorer seems the best candidate for now:

• Nice interface to browse the NAS, with file sort by date (most recent).
• Can launch video in Kodi, VLC, or any other player.

• To play video from NAS, first add the NAS as a SMB share (don't use mounted shares).
• Using direct link works (no need to copy temporarily).

• MiXplorer player: Codec add-ons cannot be installed (apparently not compatible with Shield TV)
