Hello,
Here is my problem:
I want to use a Nvidia Shield TV Pro running Android TV as a mediacenter connected to a projector.
I want somehow to be able to browse and watch my cable channels from the Shield interface, I am especially interested to see the channels which require a CI/PCMCIA card as they are paid/encrypted channels.
It is easy to integrate an USB TV tuner into Nvidia Shield using Live Channels, but there is a catch. There are NO usb tv tuners with CI/PCMCIA card slot!!! Or atleast I was not able to find one.
I found out that VU+ Zero 4K (with DVB-C tuner) has this magic CI/PCMCIA card slot and apparently there is listed in the Google Play Store an application called Vu+ PlayerHD for AndroidTV.
Has anyone been able to test this app in any Android TV device? There are literally zero references of this app in Google searches or in this forum which is a little bit confusing.
Also maybe there is an alternate way of integrating VU+ with Android TV, maybe the VU+ broadcasting through network the channels and some type of app in Android is able to see them???
Also there is any kind of restriction for the encrypted channels to be broadcasted on the network from the VU+ device??
Thank you,
Cristian
