Android TV for Tronsmart S89

[lenn0x]

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone is working on porting android tv to this box. I saw a post on a rom for the MK808 Plus. This would make an excellent box for android tv!

Isn't Android TV... The same thing as Google TV?! I thought the S98 already WAS a Google TV.

I essentally would like to have this box function like a Nvidia shield tv. I currently have a hd homerun prime and would like to use the native live channels app for viewing tv.

Well for that to happen.... I'd have to suppose that all those Roads lead back to XBMC/Kodi then...
But, not having either a Shield, or a HDHomerun Device I'm a bit lost as to any advice to give you. My setup such as it is requires me to use the Simple IPTV PVR Backend, and its hardly the best solution.

But, in your shooes I'd probably start here!

No.
