Few questions please before I buy the shield tv thanks. - Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I own a shield tablet and is it possible to have the new geforce experience on it?. Also if I was to buy the shield tv would it be possible to hook it to my laptop and use the laptop screen to play games as opposed to hooking up to the TV please?

I don't know about the Shield Tablet, but the Shield TV's only video output is HDMI. So it would only work if your laptop has an HDMI input or some input that can be converted to work with HMDI.

[Q] TV adaptor for nexus 10

What kind of an adaptor do I need to connect my nexus 10 to my TV (it's an older TV, not flat screen, not HD. I don't care about losing the HD, just the size.)
Thanks!
Micro HDMI to HDMI, DVI, or maybe even Component (not 100% sure on that). If the TV doesn't have any of that, then you'll likely need an Analog converter to go from HDMI to VGA, Composite, or RCA.

Check your TV. If it has HDMI, you want micro-HDMI to HDMI. If it doesn't have HDMI, but does have DVI, you'll want that.
If it has neither HDMI nor DVI, you'll need a new TV Or an HDMI to analog converter.
Nexus 10 to CRT TV connection
I have a nexus 10 tablet running stock 4.4.2. I bought an hdmi to rca converter from amazon.com and a micro hdmi to hdmi cable so that I could hook up the tablet to my old sharp crt tv. When I plug in the connections I am seeing a stripe coloured screen that says 'no signal ntsc'. when i turn the switch on the converter to pal it says 'no signal pal'. Could you tell me why this is happening and if anything could be done so that I can see the content from my tablet on my tv? Do I need any software/app installed to make this work? The only ports on the tv are the composite rca ones. I know the tv is old but its its 55 inches and in perfect working condition so I really don't want to purchase another so please if there is anything you know that would help I would be more than greatful.
My setup: the microhdmi to hdmi cable plugged into the micro hdmi port on the tablet, then the rca cable connects to the back of the tv and the rca ports on the converter. Should work?? Help me please. Thanks in advance.

Issues with Shield TV and Samsung TV un46c6300

Hi, I bought a Shield TV Pro (2015), and connected it to my 2011 vintage Samsung TV un46c6300. The problem is that my TV becomes unresponsive to any commands from the remote and the buttons on TV, even if I power off the Shield. The only way to get the TV respond is to switch off the power to the TV and the shield. Power cycling the TV without powering off the Shield will prevent TV from turning on. Any suggestions? HDMI cables are from monoprice from around 2011-2012

USB-C video output is not supported on your Fire tablet. You have to use TeamViewer to display your Fire tablet screen remotely into your PC.
Watch this video how to setup
To use mouse and keyboard. Can you use an USB-C OTG and an USB hub
