Now that it is possible to run Media Server on the Nvidia Shield will you be opening up the media server to the new android tv boxes that support GPU processing? I’d love to take my pc offline and run all my media off my little knock off android tv box ---

Early 2021 clean-up: duplicate > [@\[Request\] Plex Media Server for Android TV](https://forums.plex.tv/t/request-plex-media-server-for-android-tv/122856): > > I’m sure some of these newer Android TV devices are powerful enough to transcode and server video files. The Shield TV Pro specifically comes to mind - if it can emulate Wii games, I can only imagine it can transcode video - and these devices are just getting more powerful so I thought I’d bring it up as I wasn’t sure if people had talked about this possibility yet. slight_smile ---
