I assume the problem lies with the new router since I never had an issue before changing it (it pretty much worked flawlessly) but the other night I used the control app via my phone and it worked just fine. I recently switched to a new router (directly from my ISP) and ever since then I have been having connection issues between the app on my tablet and my Denon. My own Denon doesnt have HEOS, so I use the 2016 control app and it works great.when it will connect to my Denon LOL. However with D&M products, they have a sepearte control app that works pretty well. The app seems to be the source of a lot of problems for people. I have heard similar issue with HEOS on Denon/Marantz models. I'm not surprised about your difficulty with MusiCast. I know a lot of enthusiasts give Roku crap for being too simplistic and not having the same kind of options found on the Nvidea Shield and AppleTV4k, but the Roku is fast/responsive, easy to navigate and just gets out of the way and that is possibly the best compliment one can give to a UI for such devices. Other than that, the functionality has been great. But its an extremely minor inconvenience. And the fact that if I switch to another app momentarily, I have to reconnect the Roku app to my TV. The only issues being the lack of a Landscape mode as you mentioned.

I myself have a Roku TV which has pretty much the same functionality as a Roku Ultra. I have also found Roku to be quite excellent. However I find the ergos of usage to be the better of the two. It just doesn't look as impressive as a tablet might. So for me, a tablet is out for now unless I find one with enough over redeeming qualities to change my mind. Also, no Tidal app permitted on the Fire tablet. Using the Roku app in a cell phone is moreĭesireable than a tablet. The Roku app only works in poitrate mode. I think I'm going tlįire HD Tablet - You want to use a tablet inĪ landscape orientation. Have yet to get the Tidal's Master mode to The RX-V6A's displayĭisappointing, but basically funtional. You really need this to adequately control Totally unreliable reguarding sustainedĬonnectivity with PC. I know this is a dated post, but I have notes to share about 'the experiment'īeen playing with a Yamaha RX-V6A, a Roku Ultima, Motorola Moto G6 & an Amazon Fire HD 8. Honeywell or Google Nest - thermostat control (haven't purchased yet) Streaming services - Netflix, Disney+, Discovery+, Amazon Prime Video, Youtube Some of the smart devices I am currently or plan on using in the near future are. Unfortunately, many are outdated or leave me with more questions than answers.ġ) What size is ideal or convenient to work with? Sizes I'm currently interested in fall between 8' to 10.5'.Ģ) Brand of choice? Fire HD has come up a few times in prior discussions.ģ) How cheap is too cheap? I would love to stay under $200 if at all possible.Ĥ) Is there any reason I haven't thought of yet I would need extra storage space or a microSD card reader built in? Many of the tablets I've come across start at 32 GB. There is a lot of information out there regarding this subject matter. And replace all my remotes while function as a keyboard as well. Can maintain a good charge while connected into a power source.

I'm looking for a tablet that has great Bluetooth and WiFi capabilities.

So far it looks like Android will be the platform of choice. Currently, I'm using my Samsung Galaxy 8 smartphone to achieve this, however I need something with a larger screen that will be fully dedicated to the theater. I'm currently looking into tablets as a means of controlling all my smart devices in my home theater. It does not store any personal data.I posted this thread under theater room and accessories but perhaps this is the better place to ask.
