Android TV as Fast As Possible

What's with all the buzz about Android TV? Should I care about it, or is all TV a thing of the past?

The thumbnail for this video almost prevented me from clicking it.

I feel old when I torrent all my content and play it on my TV with a usb port...
am I ?

I prefer my TVs dumb, or at the very least without any cameras or microphones.

Never had cable or satellite tv. My parents never saw the value in it and even to this day still use bunny ears. We never had to cut the cord because we never had one. Ironic that in a way that was both behind and ahead of the times. My parents still have quite a collection of VHS (some bought, some recorded from TV). They have made some tech changes such as adding a DVD and Bluray player (given to them as gifts) and they are slowly coming onto Netflix although they only stream when other family is around to operate the remote.

I love watching videos of Linus at 1.5x speed :) his voice gets even higher. Those crystal balls ^_^

The thing I would love to have is faster TVs. Some smart TVs take ages to boot up completely. And even though the UI might not be bad, the latency between pressing a button and the TV responding is sometimes extremely long.

I prefer plain tv. Heard if things like processor fries, while the panel is perfectly.. tv still wont play. Usually tv panel outlast all other components. So youre better off buying non smart tv. If u want smat tv, buy a tv addon. or raspberri. Connect it to tv using hdmi or something and you have yourself pc/smarttv/tv However failing of one component wont brick the whole thing.

2:19 Can someone screenshot and upload the creepy face/moment look or something?
I want to save it to my Linus folder.

A brief on Windows 10 would be an interesting episode.

I can't quite pin down exactly what is different with the format, but whatever it is, I like it and it's working. Good job.

That sound at 2:40 was terrifying on my 7.1 sound system :'D

first of all, XBMC is now called Kodi, and second of all, you can just use something small like a Raspberry Pi mounted on the back of your TV for a media center.

I am a teacher and we at the the school bought 16 led android Tv and we mounted them in all classes .We connect them to a freenas server using cables that was already available in each class .Then I instill Ez file explore program in each Tv and saved the Freenas ip server on them. No we have a bunch of educational date that can be used at any time in each class and lesson.

This was made 6 years ago and they still haven't sorted out software to work out of the box for the 2 different models I recently had to set up. Don't need that crap!

I like how he acts it out. Every word is an Oscar moment. 🏆 👏

That thumbnail is NOT Linus you can't fool me.

Android TV OS is very smooth all those anti-Sony LG fanboys saying it's buggy nonsense.

[wanwu]

I have been having an Android TV box for 4 years, TaNix TX3 MAX, it works well and I love it.
