NVidia Shield TV is an excellent streaming device that will bring your favorite content to you

in the best possible way. This device has received a lot of updates from time to time, but the one with updated YouTube app is perhaps the best one in my opinion. Let us find out as to what is available in this update and how many changes are you going to see in this update.


NVidia Shield TV is one of the best streaming devices that you can get right now. The reason I’m writing this is that of the addition of 4K support in the device, support of multiple audio formats and overall an excellent execution of Android TV. I personally like NVidia Shield TV a lot because it is packed with so many amazing features that you will love watching your favorite shows and movies. One of the most recent updates in the device is the inclusion of 360-degree video support on YouTube app. Along with it, there is an improved UI, which will make browsing content a lot easier.


The new YouTube app that is available on NVidia Shield TV offers 360-degree video feature, which is already been demonstrated on NVidia as well as Google. This feature provides a great way to enjoy immersive content without using a headset. You can make use of the NVidia Shield TV controller to navigate your view, and it is going to work on both existing as well as new content that is formatted for 360-degree viewing devices. This is undoubtedly a cool feature to use, especially for those who love action sports and people who want to enjoy concert videos.


There are some other changes to the YouTube app as well, which are, improved browsing UI elements, which have been designed in such a way that they make finding stuff by category a lot easier. Moreover, it will be easier for users to see whose account they are logged into. If you’d ask me about my favorite changes, then those will be the changes to the video player, but this update doesn’t include the big overlays that used to hide the video completely as it begins after you hit ‘play’ or ‘pause’ button. This feature lets you enjoy the video, which is what you want to do in the first place.


It is also possible for you to get thumbnail previews if you seek forward and back in a video. Moreover, there is an autoplay feature available along with 5-second delay, which will provide you with the opportunity to get your bearing as well as the option to turn off autoplay.


This update is already available for users, but if you are not able to download this update due to any reason, then there is no need to worry. You can get in touch with NVidia Shield TV support to get this update installed. There are a lot of amazing changes in this update to look forward to, so you should get this update as quickly as possible.
