Server Version#: Version 4.66.1 | Version 1.25.2.531 Player Version#: Latest Andorid Playstore Version Hi there, on my Shield 2019 I can’t press the actors to get the information, nothing happens.

The Android TV client simply doesn’t have that functionality. It’s been addressed several times and there’s a dedicated feature suggestion asking for this feature to be added (e.g. to bring the Android TV client in line with other clients). > [@Make directors' and actors' names clickable](https://forums.plex.tv/t/make-directors-and-actors-names-clickable/711581): > > Please, improve browsing quality of life in some (all?) of your clients. I’m mainly using nvidia shield and android mobile, so I don’t know if it’s the same everywhere, but I’d really love to be able to just highlight/click on a director’s name to see a list of all of their movies. Same for actors. This is already possible in Win desktop app, so the database structure should already be there. Often when deciding what to watch I browse through descriptions, only for a name to catch my eye. Then,… ---

no thats not correct, i have the nvidia Shield 2019 Pro with Android, not Android TV, perhaps i choose the worng tag but when you read my post you see it. On Kodi or EMby the function works very well. thats a app problem and not a Android problem. ---

The Nvidia Shield runs Android TV, which is why this tagged as Android TV is correct and @tom80H mentioned Android TV. The feature that you are talking about not working on your Shield TV does not work on any client that runs off of Android (be it Android TV, an Android phone or tablet). Go click the vote button in the post linked by @tom80H to help show interest in getting that parity. -Shark2k ---
