Android TV

[janus1981]

Good day, gentlemen.

I tried to install this emulator on Android TV 8.0, Philips 55PUS6501 / 12 TV and it refused to install.
Perhaps the matter is in the MTK5890 processor?
I can't find the system requirements for Android devices.

P.S. Of course, I allowed installation from third-party sources. The emulator was easily installed on the phone.

Доброго дня, джентельмены.

Попробовал установить данный эмулятор на Android TV 8.0, Телевизор Philips 55PUS6501/12 и он отказался устанавливаться.
Возможно, дело в процессоре МТК5890?
Не могу найти системных требований по Android устройствам.

P.S. Конечно я разрешил установку из стронних источников. На телефон эмулятор установился легко.

The requirements for Android devices are:

1. arm64-v8a or x86_64 ABI (i.e. support for 64-bit code)
2. Android 5.0 or later
3. OpenGL ES 3.0 or later

If the installation of Dolphin fails on your device, it's almost always because requirement 1 is not met.

The only Android TV device which is known to be able to run Dolphin is the Nvidia Shield TV.

The MT5890 from your Philips TV has a 32-bit CPU at low clock speeds, so that's a big nope for Dolphin. While recent Android TV devices like some of Sony BRAVIA 2019 TVs and newer, some set top boxes like the Xiaomi Mi Box S and the new Chromecast with Google TV now utilizes 64-bit SoCs, all of them still runs 32-bit editions of Android TV, which also prevents Dolphin from being installed even through the hardware theoretically meets the minimum requirements.

Like JosJuice mentioned, the original NVIDIA Shield TV and the "new" NVIDIA Shield TV Pro currently are the only Android TV devices that meets all Dolphin requirements. Keep in mind that the "new" NVIDIA Shield TV released in 2019 (smaller and circular shaped), despite sharing the same SoC from their big brothers, doesn't run a 64-bit edition of Android TV, thus, no Dolphin on that one...
