Hey, NVIDIA SHIELD TV and SHIELD TV Pro owners, a surprise update just dropped and it isn’t just a bug fixer. Well, it is a bug fixer, but NVIDIA mentions in this “Upgrade 9.2” that there are several enhancements too, as well as an update to the AURO-3D app. Nice!
The update was announced by NVIDIA this morning and we’ve been told that the update is already live for many. If you’d like to go looking for it, hit up your settings on the SHIELD TV and grab it.
As for what’s new, there’s an update to AURO-3D that “unlocks full support for playback of high-resolution immersive sound in AURO-3D over HDMI.” I have no idea what that means, but I’m sure you AURO-3D users will be extremely happy to learn this.
In the “Enhancements” department, there’s support for the “Match audio consent resolution” feature when using a USB DAC, the ability to clear an HDMI 1.4 flag, a new “Match Frame Rate (beta)” feature, and more.
Finally, for bug fixes, there at least 23 that NVIDIA felt worthy of being called-out. Everything from Geforce NOW crashes to stuttering in Bose and Sony headsets and choppy video playback have all been addressed. You’ll definitely want to dive into the changelog below to see if any of your issues have been addressed.
