Nvidia rolling out another new Shield TV update with these fixes

Nvidia is rolling out a new hotfix update for the Shield TV which delivers a handful of fixes, but the update isn’t available to everyone.

Following the release of Shield Experience 9.2 earlier this year, the latest Shield TV update from Nvidia is version 33.2.0.322, a hotfix for the 9.2 update. This new patch is designed to fix a few key issues with the stable update ahead of a future wide rollout to all users. Shield TV owners who want to install the update must manually sign up and ensure they’re aware that there is no rollback process.

Nvidia says a number of issues are fixed in this new update, including content that stutters while being played in Dolby Vision and some problems with Plex when using AAC 5.1 audio.

The full fix list is as follows:

  • Fixes night mode being skipped when DAP is ON.
  • Fixes Dolby Vision content stutters when frame match feature is enabled.
  • Fixes Match Content Audio Resolution for USB DAC
  • Adds back HQS / Maxrate option for USB audio.
  • USB TV Tuner fix with Live Channel app.
  • Fixes playback issues in Plex when using AAC 5.1 audio.

These fixes will eventually be released in a stable update, but it’s unknown when that might happen.
