Configuration

  • System
  • Processor mode: change from Max performance to Optimized.

How-to

Install Firefox Tv

Reference:

First method:

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]):

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)

Applications

Browsers
  • TV
  • Downloader (more for sideloading)
