StbEmu (Free)

Does not work very well. I installed on my Android System and I have several issues: 1) It does not save favorites. 2) While watching a movie and press the forward button of the remote. It goes back to very beginning of the movie. 3) It always goes on the loud mode when changing the channel, etc.

Please add option for search to find channels or movies as it is available on stbemu app on Apple iPhone. Search option should be added to make this app perfect... THANKS

Hi Since stbemu v2.x, restoring Saved Settings (json format) seems to totally unset all Shield Tv Remote default keys assignations. All keys are shown as UNKNOWN in the keymap menu, the long press on OK button cannot be used to access the app menu which make the whole app unusable (unless you plug a mouse or use your phone as a remote). reinstalling older v1.2 version or not using save/restore works. Did somebody experiment the same issues ?

After latest update, unfortunately the keyboard function no longer works. So no chance of searching for anything. And back up and restore does not work. Have tried to save my settings and get an "error" message saying unable to backup.

It doesn't let me search content. Search screen pops up but the cursor doesn't appear and keyboard doesnt show up when accessing from the settings.

Freeze all the time!!! I'm using it on my android phone and TV. Just enough options but it's not well adopted. 2 major problems: It's extremely difficult to navigate with the onscreen buttons and it freezes every 15-20min. Restarting the app solves the problem in next 20min. Fixing the problem with freezing is enough for 4stars.

Great app but has issues. I have installed it on my sony android tv x800h 1. After setup up portal url, its works fine for first use. If I restart tv, App is crashes. It just dont open. I have to reinstall app to make it work. 2. Traversing between channel pages is too time consuming, shows 'loading' at bottom for almost 30 sec for every page 3. Is there way to load subtitles for movies in videoclub or tv series 4. Is there way to create my own groups of channels. Fav just tags them together

I have been using StbEmu (Free) for some time and really like it. I use Nvidia Shield. After the update to v1.1.9 the centre remote button brings up the menu. However, I did have a serious problem with the StbEmu menu/preview showing in a low resolution-filling only 25% of my 55 inch display-top left of screen. The full video displayed correctly. The only fix for me was to reinstall the app...All running OK again. I wonder if anybody else experienced this issue after the upgrade?

The app works excellent for IPTV however on google chromecast I cannot foward or rewind video Any suggestions.

It's been the 4th day that the app is installed on my new Chromecast with Google TV. So far it's working well! I've watched direct TV and a TV serie and no issues. I am Canadian but using it in Mexico and I am very happy so far. I will probably cancel my current plan with Bell once back home.

Not recommended for New Google Chromecast with Google TV. You can't pull media keys to fast forward, pause, etc. It's unfortunate for paid/pro version for having this simple function. I am saying it because other similar apps offer this function by simply long pressing 'ok'button on Chromecast remote. I will surely update my review once this simple function is available.

Keyboard has stopped working all of sudden , unable to search , add new profile or make any changes.

Update 06/07 - Those having frozen UI issue (navigation issue) - please uninstall Android System WebView (search in play store). Once uninstall done, restart shield and stbemu app. Everything goes back to normal. --------- Original - It worked for an year and 2 days ago stopped. It loads but then seems frozen. Originally I thought issue with my shield remote, I tried software version of shield remote and same issue, seems like you cant navigate this app. Is it possible that with some updates (by android or by this app) that it lost navigation capability? Can some developer look into this? Seems like its completely useless with this issue.

We can use MAGic Remote - in smart phones/Tablets which is a full function remote control. It is available in Google Play store and also for Apple IOS devices. This is a great app as it gives the option to choose the Media Player which comes in handy when playing some video formats which otherwise returns error in boxes with decoders built in.

Issue with the media controls on Google tv Chromecast remote. This device doesn't have dedicated buttons on the remote and now we can't use any controls like Play/Pause/Forward/Rewind. Please help to fix this issue.

Its hard to say, I been using for months with tm95 tv box it was working half decent a bit slow but not bad and now I installed on a N6 Max since its a better box I was hoping for speed of execution its worse than ever and I even try the pro version and its all the same except no ads. I am going to try reading more on it and try different configuration. Its a work in progress!

Hi this is my fav app by quite some distance,but on the latest update 1.1.8 [11th dec] ,i am having the same problem as Brian Campbell dated 11th dec in that i can not bring the menu up when you press the ok button so i can not say for example be able to change video player,input a new url unless i totally uninstall and redo,,this is via phillips android tv and i still have a problem were on channel changing the volume is pretty loud even though sound has been lowed,but apart from that the app is brilliant,Thanks.

Use this for my IPTV, works well, although wish there was a better IPTV remote, but I guess it's not their fault.

good application if you have a fast internet

Only works for 40 minutes then it freezes. Basically every 40 minutes I have to clear the cache, clear the data, restart my phone and sometimes doesn't work and I have to do it again and then it works for another 40 minutes and then...repeat. I have an S20+ 5G, Android 11. Any other streaming app works for hours except this one. I hope to find another soon unless the developer fix this. Uninstalling web viewer or downgrading doesn't make any difference.

After latest update, most of the channels are not showing, please do something

a good app with a lot of problems with fire stick 4k. Audio gets out of sync even after switching media players. please optimize for fire stick. Wil love to get pro version if works correctly

TV Configuration : Fire TV Installed latest STB Emu Application. (version 1.1.9) Previously facing so much issues in updating the application from 1.1.6 to 1.1.9. Now I've updated the application. But now after launching application, It is showing msg - Starting portal for 2 seconds. And then blank screen is being displayed. I have been facing this issue since last 8 days.

I like this app. It works well. I would only prefer if you could load the whole list at once when you open a channel list instead of loading the channel list by group and you have to page down to see the next 10 to 15 channels in the list.

Echoing what others are saying - anyway to map the keys of the new chromecast? Obviously this remote has fewer buttons than the firestick 4k so it's proving to be a challenge. Otherwise works very well and is very snappy.

The app was working great , but since last few days lost navigation , so it loads my portal but i am unable to navigate or select anything, still able to go to settings/reload the portal and select other option, ( i am using on nvidia shield) hopefully developer can look into the issue and resolve it. If the issue is resolve than this is an app which deserves 5 star

I am using this application and help to many friends to installed and setup IPTV box. During fast few days it's giving problem with mac id. Can you please fix. I call service provider and they told me that in anroid boxes it's changes mac address automatically and that's creating problem.
