The only reason I haven't just flat out installed LineageOS on my NVIDIA Shield TV is that it'd cause me to lose Dolby Vision & AI Upscaling. I know if I built a PC box unfortunately it won't have these features either.
I'm currently just using the Shield with all Google apps and other garbage removed through ADB. Isn't ideal but seems to work well enough without losing Dolby Vision or AI Upscaling or anything like that. That's what I'd recommend if you stick with this Android TV.
This is why I'm stuck with Google TV as well. The only PCs that support HDR/Dolby Vision + AI upscaling have high-end graphics cards, and I just don't have $800+ to blow on another GPU just for the living room. Not to mention the increase in heat output from the GPU, and then my power bill goes up.
Nope, I rather put up with Google's bullshit with their laggyass interface and whatnot, than lose HDR.
yep thats what i do problem is if you only get upto 720p on widewine l3 included with browsers. 1080p/4k on drm'ed streaming apps is not possible without these stupid boxes.
I'm about to just buy a cheap mini PC and run all my services through the browser on Linux. This shit just continues to get more and more invasive.
E: Hijacking my own top comment: it was a bug. Restarted the device and the keyboard came back.
Then buy a cheap keyboard remote with the track ball for mouse. Program some extra keys for stereo on and off as well as TV itself, it's a dream.
so when are you deleting this post?
I've tried several times but it's not working

But what about HDR? Linux doesn't even support it!
Neither does my TV
