NVIDIA Shield 8.0.1 update brings the bugfixes for 4K headaches

A few important apps had a problem with 4K playback on Android Pie. This should help.

What you need to know

  • This is a relatively small but important maintenance release.
  • It paves the way for a few apps that broke 4K playback to work again.
  • But some may still require server-side updates.

NVIDIA today has rolled out a maintenance release for the Shield Android TV box (which, by the way, remains the only Android TV box you should buy). It's chock full of bugfixes, but there's one in particular worth focusing on. It's a platform-based fix for some 4K playback gremlins that surfaced after the initial Android Pie update at the end of July.

Here's the take from NVIDIA itself, via its forums:

We just released software upgrade 8.0.1 which is a big step towards resolving the 4K streaming issue on select apps. We expect most apps will resume 4K soon via upcoming server-side updates. We'll keep updating this thread as apps return to 4K.

The update is available now and takes just a few minutes to download and install.

Here's the full changelog, also via the forums:
