So. The original guide from NVIDIA was incorrect and not allowing remote gamestreaming properly. I used TCPView and figured out the extra port needed was TCP 48010.
Hope this helps anyone with the same issue since NVIDIA's forums are blowing up with people unable to access remote gamestreaming from anything other than their local network.
Thanks! Ill give this a try in a bit and will get back to you.

So first I'm aware of Slingbox, and I just don't travel enough to make it worth my while.
However, if I can put sweat equity into making something work in a creative way then I'd love to try it.
I have a dual tuner DVR from Wave Broadband, which I expect is very similar to many DVR's out there in use by cable providers.
So my question is this... I know it has a hard drive, and it has an ethernet out. Has anyone ever wired their DVR into their network, and then gained access to the programs on said network? This way you can tap into it from your phone when you're on lunch and bored? Watch a show?
I know it's 99% dependant on the software and access of the DVR, but I'm hoping someone figured out a way to do it.
Thanks,
Does anyone have any ideas of when/if Teamviewer will be available for wp7?
I would find it very handy for my work as I dont carry my tablet or laptop around. I always have my phone but most of the other remote apps either cannot connect to ports or firewall prevents connection. Teamviewer seems to bypass these quite easily. Anyone know progress???
ask teamviewer support... but i doubt in this...
I have emailed them. Just get the standard reply that I have seen while googling. Its a "wait and see" I guess I'm asking if anyone has a good easy stable remote control on wp7
Hi. This is one of those things that must be so simple, but a Google search just comes up with pages and pages of totally unrelated nonsense. Hoping you guys can help me.
All I want to do is be able to mirror my Nvidia Shield TV to my smartphone screen. Not the phone to the NVidia Shield. Like a PS Remote Play but for the NvS TV. My room is within remote and gamepad range so an on screen pad is not necessary. Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks
(P.S if anyone knows of any Kodi addons with 4k content...that would be awesome! - there were 2 but they have been discontinued)
Any luck or good leads?
"Allcast reciever"?
What app or apps are you suppose trying to get to your phone?
I've been looking into doing the same thing but to a note 4. I think I found a few ways that seems like they would work for media streaming if your Shield had root access or unrestricted app installation options. Things like allcast reciever and other casting options. They all seemed to have too much latency for gaming if that is what you were wanting to do.
I'm not sure if a chromecast can output audio and video using the HDMI port but that might work if it can do that?
The other issue with pulling this off os that I think the solution needs to be some sort of universal screen and audio mirroring, like googlecast, that doesn't care about what app it is mirroring. Otherwise you'll have to rely on the app that is on the shield being capable of casting, and the Nvidia Hub isn't as far as I know.
I search for terms like: Android to android screen mirroring, android remote display, android remote access, etc....nothing so far.
My most promising hope for doing something like this now are:
1. Making my phone somehow act as or emulate a display, TV, Monitor in a way that can utilize the output from the HDMI port of a SHIELD device. This would bypass all the various issues and complications with specific application capabilities and restrictions, though it is just a idea about how to work around the app issues, I have no idea if this would even be possible. I also don't know if anything that is coming out the HDMI port has any sort of HDCP protection. I would assume that some things would but I would also assume that most of those specific things are the kinds of things. I would just be casting via media players anyway.
2. I have a really REALLY fast LAN network, and I know I am able to remotely access my PC in various ways that are low latency and high performance as far as display and audio are concerned. So, assuming the latency could be kept low enough I have thought about working on getting what I want to access on an Nvidia shield device to my PC running Windows 10, then I can just access that from my phone.
I don't know if you're familiar with that saying about engineering which basically says: "It's not a question of what you want to do but how much you can pay to do it." I say that because there seem to be a couple of fairly good high end Headset based displays out there. One is called the "gylph" or something like that and I have looked fairly thoroughly into one or two others that seemed to be high quality and have reliable reviews and testing available to find online. Some didn't seem available for another year or two, and even then you are going to be dropping $500 to $1,000 for them.
3. Using something like Tridef 3d and a head mounted VR headset based display. I was able to get that working pretty well without too much effort from my PC. The Tri-def software creates a side by side view of the application that you tell it to from your PC. So I can basically get a display output from just about anything on my PC and use it with just about anything they can recieve display output from my PC or remotely view my computers display with low latency. I haven't looked too much to see if something similar to this software is available that can run on a shield device. I would assume they are powerful enough even if you had to scale things down just a little bit.
The kind of set up that could send from your SHIELD, to your PC, to your Head Mounted Display or VR headset could be have some interesting advantages if the overall network latency was low enough. Having the rendering of the initial source on one device and the side by side display conversion on another could have a lot advantages. I own a Samsung gear VR innovator edition headset that I can use with my note 4, but if I want to use it for more than 20 minutes I need to pre-cool my phone in the freezer and to get any significant amount of time I think I would need to develop fairly high performance cooling system. That obviously isn't very easy to do when you need it to interface with a phone you use daily and also be small and light enough to attach to something you're wearing on your face. The point is that doing anything more than receiving and audio and video stream on your phone is going to be very resource intensive for it to handle. Even maxing out the gigabit Wi-Fi on my land for my phone makes it really warm and consumes the battery at a very high rate.
Whatever you do if it is helpful I have connected a pluggable USB 2.0 to Gigabit LAN adapter to the shield portable and it more than doubled the network performance. I'm not sure what the actual LAN performance is on the SHIELD
TV but even if you didn't need to increase it you might be able to reduce latency by by separating the total network load between the internal Gigabit Ethernet port and a separate USB 2.0 or 3.0 lan adapter. I don't know enough about androids capabilities to use more than one network adapter simultaneously four separate purposes to know if that is possible.
Well, congratulations if you've made it this far into my post. I have obviously been exploring this kind of thing for a while but there is a lot potential out there and a lot things that I don't know about or understand thoroughly enough. It's nice to know I'm not completely alone in this specific ambition. Hopefully we can gather a few more people and make some progress with this thread!
...wow
Wow that is an indepth reply. Thanks!
I can tell you've put a lot of thought into this. You obviously have a better chance of pulling it off than I do! (I did read it all lol)
I'm basically wanting to be able to mirror the screen like the PS4 remote play. Not just specific apps.
The only reason I know it's possible is that the Playstation 4 handles it remarkably well. No noticable lag as long as you have a good wifi router. Those guys at Sony must be using some kind of black magic. Unfortunately, I'm not gonna be the one who figures this out. I'm in no way a software or network engineer....I am an electrical engineering student though.
Anyway it's also good for me to hear that I'm not alone here. I wouldn't be surprised if Nvidia were working on this right now or at some point in the near future. And I sold the 6P and bought a Note 5 by the way. Wasn't a fan of the 6P at all.
Anyone get this to work or find another solution?
Thanks
I'm currently searching for a working solution to possibly remote into my Nvidia Shield and take full control of the device, possibly with a pass thru of sound also. I've read a number of posts about teamviewer but none of them seem to actually get the job done completely. I did try teamviewer and I could see my Shield device, but could not control.
So far, best I found is scrycpy from GenyMobile on github. This let me use a PC to and network debugging into access and control the Shield. But this is on a PC and not an android device. And still search for a sound solution.
I also tried Vysor chrome extension, but again that is with a PC and it also seemed a bit slower than scrycpy.
Can anyone recommend a combination of apps? This device is currently non-rooted, but I could be root it if needed.
Thanks,
Paul
I'm looking for a way to remotely lock, and unlock, use of my Shield TV. I have issues with my son using it when he's supposed to be working on homework or chores and before he's earned it, but unlike with his phone which can rely on Family Link, or the Switch or Xbox or Windows which all have equivalents, I have no way of locking down the Switch until he's proven he's done his work.
In addition, my Shield is the conduit for my SmartThings smarthome, so past recommendations I've received of simply cutting off internet to it through my router aren't feasible.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
