Comcast wants to buy Roku

I would think that that would help prove a lot of technicans correct when they recommend using a separate box to stream with.

Maybe. Or it could just me an Android TV thing I guess. There have been a lot of bugs introduced to the platform of late.

Maybe those technicians don't know how to "Set Up " the TV .... An ATT tech for example isn't suppose to be setting up TV's, thats not part of the job.

I actually would not know Best Buy delivered and set up my TV.
My XBR55A8H received a software update today and now my Sony remote control's my 2020 Roku Ultra.

The biggest bug I've come across recently is with the android media player dropping frames, stuttering, and ultimately freezing completely/becoming non-responsive to inputs. This necessitates a hard power reset. I've seen it on all four on my Shields across multiple apps. I did a factory reset on two of the ones that experience it most often, and I am waiting to see if that has lasting effects. Additionally, a few apps, like Prime Video, won't do Dolby Atmos unless you reboot your device, and may still refuse even then. I have confirmed this is the same behavior on my Shield and my Sony X950H. The app hasn't been updated, but I did get Android updates from both Sony and NVIDIA right before this started.

Thanks for the info ...
I haven't had any such issues as of yet.
