User reviews
Seems to have fixed the audio from falling out of sync, but so many other issues. In general it's stable but once installed on a Google Chromecast with Google TV the app disappears from the menu. You need to go into the apps to find & open it. Also the integrated DVR functionality has disappeared which was one of the best features. Very disappointing because this still has the nicest interface out of the app choices available.

Cam Certo, 2022-09-09Please fix the issue with the audio and video getting out of sync after playing for a bit. This tends to be HD channels like ESPN, TNT, TBS, and NFL network after playing for about 5 minutes. This has been occurring every since the last update I am constantly having the same problem. I have tried reinstalling the app but the issue is still there. Other apps that allow me to watch tv (HD Homerun) does not have this issue. Possibly needs updated to work with the latest Nvidia Shield 9.0 experience.

Brian, 2022-04-18I don’t know if this app is relatively new or not, but I downloaded to my new tv with android tv built in, and the interface seems really nice, except, it doesn’t actually work with anything. There’s a program guide, which doesn’t display any actual program info!?! Really, I’m really just hoping this is new and a “Work In Progress”.
