      The Shield is also one of the only Android TV devices that passes on HD audio codecs, so if you stream any Blu-ray rips with DTS-HD Master Audio or Dolby TrueHD and you want passthrough to work correctly, you probably want a Shield.

        DTS-HD Master Audio or Dolby TrueHD and you want passthrough

        Can you elaborate on this please - what’s passthrough and dts?

        I have a shield - can I use it as a server, or is it just a client?
