We need an up next section, continue watching doesn't cut it. It's one of the biggest reason I keep using Apple tv with the cord cutting using a bunch of streaming apps you need a section that populates with new and upcoming episodes so you know what's what. How can we still not have this and be stuck with continue watching??
Hi, I'm having some issues with my Google Streamer. Whenever I play a video on Disney+ at highest quality(4k UHD), it just stays paused. When I change to stabdard(SD), it works just fine. All other apps like prime, Netflix work just fine. I tried plugging to my AVR first, then directly into the TV but it does the same. When connected to my AVR, I'm able to see that it correctly recognized the content 4k, HDR etc. I tried playing with TV settings to enhanced, tried messing with the auto display and sound settings to manual. Even tried disabling HW overlays and did a factory reset.
I'm connected to a Samsung s95d.
Any ideas? My older 4k chromecast with google TV works just fine. This thing is nothing but problems since I got it.
I’m so embarrassed, it pops up when I use a web browser, I deleted cache, data, history, uninstalled and reinstalled. It’s still there!

I want to use my Onn. 4K Google TV Streaming Box with Google Home so I can control it with my Google Home Mini. I've tried setting it up on the app but it shows there is no devices. It only shows on local devices but I want it in my home so I can use the Google Home Mini with that. Is there any way you guys can help me, that will be really appreciated.
I hate those black bars pls if i can remove it
M
Is this option removed? I can't browse the app store, only search for an app.
I want it to search Youtube for everything, music, videos, etc. But anytime I ask it to play a song it plays on Spotify. How can I switch that?
when I try search for a app like YouTube is saying "something went wrong" how i can fix?
Hi yall! Im looking for a new smart tv for my living room (my requirements are:43 inches or over and it needs to have software support) some people in my family have samsung tv's and i like samsung tv's because of their like tool bar thing instead of a homescreen and because im already in the samsung ecosystem but then one day when i was in an electronics shop i saw a philips ambilight tv so i like them because they have inbuilt lights on the back but now im not sure which one is the best for me so could anyone help me decide?
Please excuse any spelling or grammar mistakes in my post english isnt my first language
Does anyone else have this problem that Netflix disables remote-control buttons at end of movie/episode. Can not go back, no pausing, can not skip to next episode etc. Just have to wait till end then its back to working normally. Super annoying!
I have the Hisense Google Tv model SmartTV 4k. Anytime we try to play video games by using the hdmi inputs, the tv automatically switches back to the Home Screen after a few seconds. We have tried restarting the tv, unplugging and rearranging the hdmi cables, restarting the play stations, making sure the tv is up to date, etc. Is there a solution for this that I’m missing? It’s driving us nuts!
Google should improve the Volume controls (add more levels) in Google TV. I mean it has 0 to 20 levels of volume, but with my head phones 7 is too quiet and 8 is too loud.... I think that between 7 and 8 they could add at least 2 more levels.
Device: Xiaomi TV Box 2nd Gen.
As the title says, need help on disabling the said "Feature" since there is a dedicated mute button already and sometimes I just need to quickly lower the volume of my tv and not mute it.
This app/shortcut used to open the antenna/coax input at first, but something changed and it now opens HDMI 1 instead. Am I missing a setting? Known issue?
So basically, when I'm playing a game or watching a movie, in certain lighting, these lines will consistently appear every single time and it's very annoying. For some reason it doesn't look as bad on camera but in real life it's a lot more noticeable than you think.
This is either a new thing or something I just never noticed until now but after noticing it, I can't un-see it and it's irritating the life out of me.
I tried changing the aspect ratio to get rid of it, which works, but all of the premade options are too over the top and there's no way to manually customize the aspect ratio to my liking.
I tried turning on/off "high contrast" on my Xbox which has worked for other people but not for me.
This is just getting super jarring to look at everyday now and I've run out of ideas on how to fix this. If anybody has any theories as to what this could be and how to fix it, please let me know. Your help is appreciated.
So I don't know if this has happened to anybody else but when I launch the Roku Channel on my Google TV, I can watch every single Channel except the ones that have news Across the Nation. Like KCAL, ABC 7. Etc.
I get this black bar and the channels just don't load. But every other channel is fine. I have unplugged we plugged and cleared both data and cash I'm just wondering if this has happened to anybody else?
Hi all. Any recommendations for a controller to purchase for use with Google TV streamer? Thanks.
I bought a TCL 85” TV last year that comes with GoogleTV by default.
The GoogleTV interface is soooo slow it’s unusable. 🤯
I assume that’s because TCL designs their TVs with cheap, underpowered processors to keep the price down.
I’ve now bypassed GoogleTV entirely by buying an AppleTV, putting it on HDMI 1 and setting the TV to always open on the previous configuration (HDMI 1). Never have to see GoogleTV again. 😎
Anyone else have this problem?
(I’m surprised Google doesn’t require a minimum processor speed from their certified manufacturers. TCL is giving GoogleTV a bad user experience and a bad name.)
Hi all, I own a Sony Bravia 8 with Google TV. Anyone aware of any emulators that would allow me to play some games?
I decided it was time to upgrade so I went from a 32” TCL to this 50” Hisense
I have a brand new Philips 65OLED809 with Google TV. After all the updates have gone through and everything is up to date and usable, I have installed 6(!!!) apps. Magenta, Netflix, Amazon Music, Joyn, Arte and ZDF Mediathek. Now the following problem: The TV now has a little under 1GB of free memory and EVERY time I turn it on, a message appears to free up memory. If you "optimize" it, nothing changes and the message appears again. Yesterday I could no longer use it because the message would not go away. I am a bit tech-savvy and have therefore also tried to install the apps on an external medium and/or move them. Unfortunately, the OS does not allow this with these common apps.
I urgently need advice because I have absolutely no idea what a) this crap from google/phillips is all about and b) how I can fix the problem. According to the system display, the TV only has 6GB of storage space, is that even allowed? That's less than the cheapest USB stick Wish throws at you.
Thanks Reddit.

I have a Google TV Streamer connected to a LG OLED 4K TV in the UK. The screen image occasionally flashes bright white/purple. It only lasts for a fraction of a second and only happens at random every 10-20 minutues or so. I think it only happens with 4K HDR content. I have seen it using a variety of apps (Netflix, Amaxon Prime, Apple TV and Plex). I never see the same problem watching the same content using the native TV apps. Does anyone have any suggestions for a fix?
Anybody else have a Google TV and face issues with the NBA app constantly buffering? No other app has this issue.
I have a google TV and I have never been able to open the Apple TV app. It just flashes the Apple TV logo and stays there forever. Have done everything including factory reset, updates, unplugging and re plugging, resetting wifi, deleting and redownloading the app etc. Anyone have any magical fixes? We also have a Roku system and we also can't get the Apple TV app on their either. Thanks!
