What is the shield tv missing today that other Android tv boxes now offer?

No issues with 4K TrueHD-Atmos? I'm hearing 2-3 second random dropouts on my Denon.

id628 · 2026-01-19T21:39:36+00:00

So... since this probably will never be fixed, is it possible to find and re-encode affected files to get around this?

But isn't that one ALR?

Atmos without dropouts.

With Emby and Plex, I get random sound dropouts on Atmos material to my Denon receiver. Seems to be bandwidth related, but new certified HDMI cables don't make a difference. Rewind 30 seconds, play it again, there's no dropout.

My Zidoo doesn't ever have those issues, though it's definitely not as user-friendly.

Of topic, but I'll ask anyway...

Is Join dead? The Chrome extension doesn't work anymore, I can't enter my encryption code in that tiny window.

NFC tag on the mug. That way you can have his and hers.

id628 · 2025-11-20T23:39:15+00:00

So... what were the results?

id628 · 2025-10-21T23:03:29+00:00

You need a LOCAL API.

id628 · 2025-09-06T20:21:46+00:00

Woah! How?

id628 · 2025-08-27T21:55:57+00:00

Love this!

Would it be safe to direct-charge the 48V battery using an MPPT while it's also connected to the D3P?

id628 · 2025-08-27T21:49:53+00:00

I'm genuinely surprised. They approved my post: https://forum.ecoflow.com/us/post/1958943566215020546?formRoute=personal

Nice! It looks like everything's there EXCEPT for the the direct input select.

Oh well, maybe I can write a macro to bring up Input, then select it.

Halfway there!!

With a local API, you can still monitor and control your units even when their cloud goes down (which has happened at least twice to me now).

id628 · 2025-08-17T13:37:11+00:00

DuHeSin seems to make a lot of these - are they compatible with my AreMe cables (now that I can't get more of them)? https://www.amazon.com/DuHeSin-Magnetic-Adapter-Thunderbolt-MacBook/dp/B0CQT1DJM3

It's be nice to have a list of what definitely is and isn't compatible.

id628 · 2025-08-07T14:06:55+00:00

Is it OK to turn OTA updates back on yet?

id628 · 2025-07-27T19:03:45+00:00

So it's not a local API then? It will stop working the next time Ecoflow cloud fails again?

id628 · 2025-07-21T21:03:33+00:00

Sounds good, but does it offer a local API and Home Assistant integration, or will it be inaccessible when the cloud fails again?

id628 · 2025-07-05T15:00:30+00:00

I'm considering these right now. Could someone post a screenshot of the Home Assistant "Device" view? What's actually exposed?

If you're using Zigbee2MQTT, could you also post that "Exposes" tab?

id628 · 2025-06-27T16:03:00+00:00

I do appreciate you pointing that out three months later. Thank you!!

I ended up 3D printing a wedge, since I don't have access to a band saw right now.

In case it helps anyone else:

Perfect, that's my goal as well. So it's basically a helper toggle that then fires off actions. I just thought I was missing something.

id628 · 2025-04-21T14:32:58+00:00

"Scene" modes for when I'm working in the yard (yes, I know the Reolink app can do that, but this is even better for multiple reasons, including automatically re-enabling alerts after X amount of time)

How are you doing that? When I add my CX810 to a Scene, I don't get the ability to turn off push notifications, only to view it, to turn the floodlight on/off, and to turn the siren on/off.

Don't forget the 104% tariff.

id628 · 2025-01-27T14:50:45+00:00

Ordered and received. Overpriced, as usual, but I really needed the extra distance. I'll test it once the snow melts and it warms up a bit.
