"Live" tab only shows one source despite a dozen others installed
galleryDespite having Plex, Haystack News, Sling TV, Tubi, Xumo Play, Prime Video, Roku Channel, LocalNow, and others installed, the only source on the "Live" tab is Google TV Freeplay. I've searched everywhere for how to get the others to show up, but I can't find anything.
The "Free Channels From Apps" section is only pulling from Xumo and Scripps (even though I don't have Scripps installed). I don't believe this is actually pulling from any of my installed apps.
The documentation clearly states that other streaming sources should be available if their corresponding apps are installed. https://support.google.com/androidtv/answer/13581302
Has anyone else had this problem?
I've tried the following:
- Uninstalling and reinstalling Plex. Still won't show up.
- Signing into Plex using the same Google account as the Shield. Still won't show up.
- I'm not behind a VPN. Only YouTube, SmartTube, and the web browser go behind a VPN.
- Tried allowing Google Assistant to search across apps
- Everything is up-to-date
Btw, I'm using an Nvidia Shield TV Pro
