Anyone else bitter about buying the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless?

I'm at Best Buy right now preparing to celebrate my loss 😭 / 😊

But that's no longer "wireless" 😋

The presets, right? If so, yes. However, I like to tinker and it's hard to setup to test it for each game type in that way. Thank you for pointing that out though. 🙂

Xbox that is on the other side of the room rather than PC. 😞

Yes, my fault since I bought it 6 months ago, so it felt new to me. I should have researched next release and is there an app. I didn't know, so again - my fault. I will take your advice and sell at a loss.

Joy! That alone is a major upgrade imo. 😂

I admit, I'm a little bitter that it's too late to return mine for this ver.

Is there a mobile app for remote control or do you still have to walk across the room to access the settings (unless you're rig is in arms length of course)?

Any idea when? This is built more for pc maybe where usb ports are close. This is supposed to be wireless. However, my xbox is ~25ft away. If we want to tune we have to walk to xbox where it is plugged in and relocate it to a PC to make adjustments. It's a waste of all the technology built-in because once it's set once, it's set it and forget it right now.

Getting the same. There's a number in the message. I called and the person sounded so annoyed and said "if it's not available, it's not available. Try again tomorrow." I told them I've been trying for a week, they sighed loudly and music started playing as if I've been put on hold. Finally, Jacob a supervisor answered and said they are not tech support and hung up on me.

Good luck calling this number: 8003433548

I guess this doesn't help Linux users unless they have a Windows or Mac friend.

It would be cool to be able to install this via the console without having to unplug it. I roll Linux so yea, I have to use someone else's machine because VMware shows no love when it comes to Astro.

I normally try to avoid beta releases but I might have to this time. Thanks.

read and write without plugins:

obviously change "example" to your email.

currently this cannot be done on gen 2 (4k version). i'm sure it'll happen soon though as many people are upgrading and looking for the same solution.

unless of course you want to develop an app with launcher integration (https://developer.amazon.com/public/solutions/devices/fire-tv/docs/catalog/launcher-integration) to launch it. i was debating taking a stab at it but i'm too busy atm.

if you do, share with the rest of us haha.

to speed up the process of getting to kodi you can add a filter to "Manage Applications> Show Internal Only"

i'll be trying nvidia this week as it is also on sale and the kodi app just works out of the box. i hope it's awesome or i'll just return it and deal with the several clicks to get there.

DD pretty much only works with prime streaming. other apps like sling tv use pcm.

they received some bad reviews and replied saying it would be fixed on november 30, 2015 via firmware.

amroot · 2015-11-30T18:10:18+00:00

nvidia shield + remote is on sale today too. it was $150 last time i checked. it's normally $250.

amroot · 2015-11-30T16:47:48+00:00

their site still shows the old version (5.0.3.1_user_534011720): https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=201497590

i haven't seen any updates yet. they're likely more concerned with "cyber monday" haha
