- The latest update of Nvidia Shield, v9.2, adds a new 3D audio format
- Support occurs two years after Nvidia expressed her plans to do so
- However, there is no sign of a new shield television model
A new update of Nvidia Shield TV Streaming Box Arrived, with the version 9.2 software now deploying to protect TV devices with a multitude of new fixes and modifications, reminding us that the aging streamer can still have a life.
The most flashy change is the addition of Auro-3D, a three-dimensional audio format in the Dolby Atmos or DTS vein: x. Nvidia expressed his intention to support Auro-3D in 2023, but he was taken about two years to finally arrive here.
Developed by Denon, Auro-3D operates in the same way as other three-dimensional formats, configured for a feeling of height and sound immersion surrounding surroundings with the arrangements of traditional horizontal speakers. You will need a minimum speaker configuration of 9.1 channels to get the full experience, the mind.
The format is not widely taken care of compared to Dolby Atmos, which you will find on the Best streaming services Like Netflix, but it is always a competitor who makes his way to devices, Blu-ray and other platforms-and for those who have an appropriate house theater system, you will probably want to check it for yourself.
Other modifications for version 9.2 include parental controls added in French, an increase in safety measures for 4K DRM Playback and a long list of bugs for video and audio playback, launching applications and intelligent assistant integration problems.
The implementation notes say that the update will delete your shield television Google The integration of the house, too, be sure to reconfigure your configuration if it is something that affects you.
Will there be more TV equipment from Shield to come?
It’s an interesting moment for Nvidia’s TV streaming box. The Shield TV range was launched for the first time in 2015, with the latest Shield TV and Shield TV Pro models in 2019, which means that current equipment becomes a bit long in the tooth – in particular since it works Still on Android 11 rather than the latest Android 12 Android 12 OS.
As we wrote in 2024, the Shield TV is always a Excellent streaming boxEven if his updates are now rare. It’s a capable 4K Hdr Streaming for any intelligent TV, with countless Android applications and services, including JAM GeForce now Streaming service with access to more than 1,800 games.
But with many other streaming devices to choose, game consoles that serve as a streaming boxes, and reports that Valve can consider creating a Shield TV competitor, and it is difficult to see how long Nvidia’s Box can keep Without freeing new iteration material in the near future.
I can at least make sure that Matt HansonOur editor -in -chief of IT and the first fanatic of Shield de TR, literally does it with Nvidia every time he speaks to people there, which was damn regularly recently – so when Nvidia finally breaks and promises A new one to close it, you will know who thank.
