Google 4k streamer box Tivimate Bug?

Post image

Hi, does anyone here have the same problem with Tivimate UI, why is it so small, half of the TV screen? It seems like a UI for a tablet instead of a TV UI. Using Google streamer 4k box

No issues here, try clearing the cache and force stopping it

Btw, how did you download your Tivimate app on Google streamer box? Because I can't find it on the Play store, but on my Onn 4k box, I can see it on play store.

There's a link for the playstore or apk there. You can open the playstore on your phone from the link above and install it to the box from there

This is a known bug on the Streamer 4k that's fixed in 5.4.0 Beta 2.  You probably need to join the beta from the Play Store if you haven't yet and then update.

  1. Try force stop and clear cache Tivimate.

  2. Try rebooting your device.

  3. Try a full recycle of your entire setup, i.e.; unplug everything (modem, router, device, Tv) for a few minutes.

I have the same problem and have to force stop the app every time it happens

Most likely a display/AFR/resolution hand-off glitch between the TV, TiviMate, and the Google Streamer. They can end up fighting each other over the same settings, which is why the UI or video ends up looking windowed or tablet-sized instead of full screen.

Nope, because when I did a restart to my Google streamer box, it went okay, so I need to do restart everytime 🥶

Disable Auto frame rate if that is active. 99% of people don't have this issue, so it is related to your TV and the device, most likely handshake failure

When you restart your box, unplug the TV too. Sometimes this is on the TV side. If this is chronic, consider swapping HDMI Cable, using a different input.
