Description
The NVIDIA Shield TV Pro (2019 model) remains one of the most powerful and versatile streaming media players ever created, designed for enthusiasts who demand top‑tier performance.
More than a simple streamer, Shield TV Pro blurs the line between media hub, smart home controller, and high‑performance entertainment platform.
At the heart of the Shield TV Pro is NVIDIA’s Tegra X1+ processor, delivering fast, fluid operation and exceptional responsiveness across apps, menus, and games. This processing power enables one of Shield’s standout features: AI‑enhanced upscaling, which intelligently transforms HD and Full HD content into remarkably sharp, detailed 4K visuals in real time. The result is cleaner edges, enhanced texture, and a more lifelike picture—especially noticeable on large modern displays.
The Shield TV Pro supports virtually every major video and audio format available today. It delivers stunning visuals with 4K HDR, including Dolby Vision, while immersive soundtracks are handled with Dolby Atmos and DTS‑X pass‑through, making it an ideal source component for high‑end home theatre systems. Whether you’re streaming movies, watching live sports, or playing locally stored media, Shield ensures uncompromised audiovisual quality.
Powered by Android TV, the Shield TV Pro provides access to an extensive ecosystem of apps including Netflix, Disney+, YouTube, Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, Plex, Kodi, and more. It also functions as a Plex Media Server, allowing you to host and stream your personal media library directly from the device—complete with hardware‑accelerated transcoding.
GOOGLE ASSISTANT BUILT-IN
Search for movies and shows, access media playback controls, change the temperature, dim the lights, and so much more. Ask questions and see the answers on your TV, including Google Photos, your calendar, sports scores, and more. Even automate and control your smart devices‡. The Google Assistant is always on, ready to help, and makes life in your living room that much more relaxing*†.
