Netflix is my go-to for streaming services. Mainly because there's a dedicated "Netflix" button on my Shield remote that I keep hitting on accident.
Remap it to something that’s actually good
Whoa--there's an app for that! https://www.androidpolice.com/2019/10/30/shield-tv-remote-remap-netflix/ Thanks!
Yeah it’s great, I’ve got my YouTube button mapped to smart tube next.
Remapped it to Jellyfin app on mine. Kind of ironic :)
the only regret I have is the inability to bind my jellyfin app to my remote Netflix button.
Depending on what TV you use, it might be possible.
there was a redditor that was insisting that it was Nvidia paying Netflix millions and millions of dollars for the privilege of having a dedicated netflix button on the remote, and not the opposite, Netflix paying Nvidia millions of dollars to have a sponsored button the remote
I do the same thing all the time. Need to figure out how to remap the button to load TiviMate instead.
As a side note, I really wish Nvidia would release a new Shield. I just ordered a new one yesterday because honestly, it's still the best streaming box.
