NVIDIA is releasing a new hotfix for the Shield TV.
The latest hotfix brings security improvements for 4K DRM playback and adds French parental controls.
It also causes support for Google Home to break.
Despite its inconsistent software support, the aging Shield TV has been getting some attention from NVIDIA recently. Just last month, the Android TV streaming device received an update that squashed a number of bugs. It’s now getting another update, but there’s good and bad news.
On its forum, NVIDIA announced it is rolling out another hotfix for the Shield TV. The hotfix will be enabled as version 33.2.0.295 for the 2015 and 2017 models. It will bring support for French parental controls and security enhancements for 4K DRM playback. As for the 2019 model, the company is holding off on the rollout due to a major issue with Google Home.
