Does anybody know if the NowTV App is available as a download for the 'Nvidia Shield Box' as i'm very tempted to upgrade as Plex is not properly supported on the NowTV box - Also if anybody has the Nvidia Shield box with the Plex Media Server App installed, could you tell me if it has the option to 'View By Folder' as this option is missing from some versions and is very important for my personal setup.
Thanks

I put it in landscape mode and it loads, the side panel opens but the remote cannot navigate 🙂

If I get time I will run the app through apk2tv and see if that makes any difference, I've used the tool on a few other apps so they show on the main screen in the past with success.

Hi @Anonymous User
Our response hasn't changed regarding this device.
It is still an unsupported device and as far as we have heard, at present there are no plans for a native app, but never say never.
Cheers
Andy

This should work Via Chromecast, i've done it myself. However sideloaidng won't work at all, although i did manage to get BT Sports working via Sideload over a year ago. The NOW TV app will actually load but once you go to play something you'll get an error. I'll try and get it set up for Chromecast tonight when i'm back from work and update this thread tomorrow @Anonymous User

that would be great to understand exactly what works and the steps requried.
I don't have the NowTV app sideloaded.
I simply tried to cast a nowtv video to my shield (on the latest SW) by pressing the cast button but it would not cast. Shiled shows but wont work.
flicking to my seperate chromecasts work perfecly as expected. but the shield will not.
