Any Android TV device works. That includes a dedicated Android TV box or a TV / projector with the Android TV OS built in. For the best experience, pick a device with 4 GB of RAM.
What works
A standalone Android TV box (e.g. Nvidia Shield, Xiaomi Mi Box, generic 4 GB Android TV boxes).
A TV with Android TV OS built in (e.g. many Sony, Hisense, TCL, Philips models).
A projector running Android TV OS.
Or a free CicloHub from us — pre-configured and ready to pair.
Minimum recommendation
4 GB RAM — for smooth video playback.
An Ethernet port (or stable Wi-Fi) — Ethernet preferred.
HDMI output to your studio screen / projector.
Latest stable Android TV OS version.
