The Nvidia Shield TV is still a great streaming box, and it just got its first update in a year

When
we
reviewed
the

Nvidia
Shield
TV
Pro
back
in
2021,
we
said
that
it
was
the

best
streaming
box
on
the
market
at
the
time.
It’s
still
a
great
streamer
thanks
to
its
flexibility
and
power,
but
it’s
been
a
little
neglected.
However,

Nvidia
has
issued
an
update
at
last

the
first
such
update
since
2023.
If
you’re
encountering
bugs
or
glitches
that
are
taking
the
shine
off
your
Shield,
this
new
update
should
hopefully
address
them.

The
new
updates
are
detailed
in
a

post
on
the
Nvidia
website,
but
the
short
version
is
that
it
enhances
the
Match
Frame
Rate,
fixes
a
GeForce
Now
crash
bug
and
addresses
some
irritating
video
and
audio
issues.

What’s
new
in
the
Nvidia
Shield
TV
update

As
before,
the
system
is
based
on
Android
11

and
this
update
is
a
hotfix
rather
than
a
new
version,
so
don’t
expect
any
new
features.

Here’s
the
list
of
the
changes
in
this
new
update,
the
9.1.1+
Hotfix:

Match
Frame
Rate
(beta)
enhancement

Resolves
issue
with
SHIELD
drive
filling
up

Fixes
the
issue
of
No
audio
heard
when
headset
is
connected
to
controller
and
DAP
is
on

Resolves
issue
of
Geforce
now
crash
after
launch

Ability
to
clear
HDMI
1.4
flag
via
factory
reset

Fixed
video
distortion
on
“RGB
8-bit
Rec.709”
display
mode

Resolved
USB
HDD/Flash
drive
showing
corrupted
after
hotplug

NAS
folder
info
shows
0
B
and
not
the
actual
capacity

Mounted
storages
aren’t
listed
after
upgrade

Fixes
occasional
crashes
in
DRM
apps

The
support
document
also
notes
some
important
caveats.
If
you
want
to
install
Disney
Plus
from
the

Play
store
you’ll
need
to
do
it
before
applying
this
update,
as
once
installed
you
won’t
be
able
to
add
or
update
the
Play
store
version
of
the
app;
the
Hotfix
isn’t

Google
certified;
and
there’s
no
way
to
reverse
installation.
