Since VBox Android TV Gateway are officially supported tuners, it would be great if Plex Media Server could be installed like on the NVIDIA Shield. It has 2 USB ports for external drives to store DVR recordings. This would be a nice all in one solution.

There’s already an existing feature suggestion to allow installation of PMS on sufficiently powerful Android TV boxes. > [@\[Request\] 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 Please search before posting duplicate suggestions (even if they are for on specific model vs. a generic request for an entire platform). This is important to help us avoid distracting votes/comments. Therefore I’m closing this thread. Please vote/comment in the original suggestion instead. ---
