BTW, I would love to see video recorded off that tablet. Andrew and I are looking for streaming friendly tablets.

Here is some video recorded off the tablet. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FkI_QkjqISIHere is the tutorial about how to do it. The video walkthrough works great. And it is about 1 minute long, things are supposed to be that simple. The 'read about it here' link only gets you to nvidia's homepage -- or at least here in Sweden that is what happens. These things get localised, so maybe it works for you as well. This is a video blog made by twitch. blog.twitch.tv/twitch-broadcasting-comes-to-the-nvidia-shield-tablet-69e3cf87c69b#.ak7lkskn0Note: the nvidia stylus is sold out pretty much anywhere. But other styluses work. If by some strange chance you can get a real nvidia stylus where you are, please get one for me too, and I will buy it from you. Mine has been on order for 6 months now. However, Andrew undoubtably has much nicer styluses already, so you could just try those first. Another note: Lots of cables cannot handle the 2.x load, including the Anker ones that are supposed to be so wonderful. I fried 2 of them. I bought some Volutz cables www.amazon.com/Volutz-Equilibrium-Nylon-Braided-Micro-USB/dp/B00T38OHQ8/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1487140035&sr=1-1&keywords=volutz+charger and am pleased as possible with them. Everything charges faster at my house now, including my laptop. You will have to turn down the speed on some greedy video games -- Sentinels of the Multiverse, are you listening!! -- but there are settings so that on a pure app basis you can set the number of cores used, max and the framerate, and the cpu speed, all the good stuff. |

Gotcha, that's pretty cool. This is Tegra chip's ability to do H.264 encoding in hardware -- that's why the Shield is so unique here. We'll probably end up using tablets with HDMI output to a capture card. This looks like it is designed to use NVidia's streaming service setup, rather than provide a input source for something like XSplit or OBS.

You can do that too. HDMI output from the shield works great for that, according to podcasts from OBS people.

Indeed the only thing I don't like about the tablet is the power on switch, and the volume switch -- and especially taking screenshots with them, so I just got an app for that. But if you buy one of these things, and you want to root it, unlocking the bootloader will wipe your data. So root the thing first thing.
