About The Project

I picked up a Google Chromecast with Google TV player and I was surprised that there was no official way to play xCloud games as the official app that could be sideloaded stopped working. As a software engineer, I decided to have a go at making a Google TV (Formally Android TV) app that would allow xCloud to play in full screen with controller support.

  • Android mobile support

    Android mobile support

    Does the app support mobile devices? If not, could you add support? I know you might not understand why this is if the Xbox Game Pass app already works decently on mobile, but with me the app doesn't exceed 6Mbps birate and probably the same happens with other people. I would like to be able to play with the maximum 15Mbps as it is in the browser with a custom user agent simulating a desktop. I tried your app but it gets stuck on a gray screen. By switching the phone orientation to landscape and tapping randomly on the screen, I was able to open a white screen with the Xbox logo loading in the center, but it didn't go further.

  • App bar

    App bar "XCTVPlayer" on top, WebView is not full screen

    Above the web view, I see a black bar which takes up about 10% of the screen the whole time, only displaying "XCTVPlayer".

    Is this intended behavior?

    I'm using the latest OS version on the Google Chromecast with Android TV 4K.

  • Nvidia Shield - Touch Device Confirmation

    Nvidia Shield - Touch Device Confirmation

    When I start a game, a Overlay is popping up that want me to confirm that I’m „Ready to Play“ with a Button „Tap to start playing“

    It’s not possible to tap that button with a physical Device such as Remote Control or Gamepad.

    You just have an option to use the Shield TV App and work with virtual TrackPad.

    Any Solution possible inside the App? Or is it just an Shield-based Bug?

    Big gray icon with music of game in the background

    Hello! I tried loading a game but I get a big grey video icon instead of the game. I do get the audio of the game in the background and if I move the Google Chromecast tv controller the feed appears but that overrides the xbox controller.

    Any idea whats going on? How can i help you debug this?
