![]() ![]() As u/PhysicallyKrisp shows off on Reddit, this version of iPlayer looks very much like the Shield version or any other, so the experience should be familiar for users. It's not officially available for the Nvidia Shield (which has its own version of the app), though, and there's no point sideloading it there as it's the same as the version compatible only with Shield devices in terms of functionality. Reports from users now point out that it's possible to sideload this version of iPlayer on other Android TV devices. While the app is built for Android TV, it doesn't appear to be available for Xiaomi's Mi Box, or other ATV hardware at present. This BBC help page shows that the new Google streamer is certified for use with iPlayer, although that may only refer to the cast functionality. ![]() I'm running Recognized Developer Kasperh's Pac-Man and XBMC is running flawlessly and wanted to still share it with our hardcore galaxy tab 10.1 users. Thankfully, there's a new version of the app that's compatible with Google's new hardware, just in time for launch. Recognized Developer kemonine96 managed to get the XBMC media player running on tegra 2 devices. This means no BBC iPlayer for the new Chromecast with Google TV, since that's just an ATV dongle with a fancy skin. There have been versions specific to certain hardware, such as the one for the Nvidia Shield or those you can get on Sony TVs, but there's still no official generic version that works on any ATV device. BBC iPlayer has had a strange relationship with Android TV. ![]()
