Hey guys.

I also own a Amazon FireTV but I am on root and had rbox-bootloader.
I like some games from GC but it seems that the Dolphin Emu App v0.14 does not run any of my GC-Dumps (F9C47B0C8A34D345C06061F24E0DB277 or D9A2E9C73F4BE1A0456734445402D35D) in ISO-Format.
Change some settings but never got an short picture of the game I choose from list.

I've read that the fireTV should support OPENGL ES 3 and v2 too.
What went wrong?
Here catlog, perhaps it helps -> SEE_ATTACHED_FILE

Here some Hardware-Informations:

The windows crashes when I tab on the "GLES 2" or "GLES 3" tab... Can you tell me why?

Why not just build a mini-itx home entertainment rig. I've seen badass home entertainment rigs setup with every emulator there is. Yes including Dolphin and PCSX2, all you need is a nice interface like Steam big picture or something in that area and your good to go for home entertainment goodness!

I'm actually tempted to build one myself in the future but it's either that or plan on replacing my tv with a Samsung Curved tv, Metroid prime on that, what! =)

Sorry but I don't build a new htpc for some GC or PS2 games.
And I think this really off-topic.

I mean this thread is about Amazon FIRE TV, a Android based Quadcore Arm device and wie are here in the Android development area.
Mario Kart Double Dash runs on my OnePlus One and the Hardware does Not differ much. So why should we Not try to fix thoose windows crashes on AFTV boxes and try to Run some games on it.

If I (we) can help you anyway to solve this error, just write here or a pm.
Is my catlog helpfull?

My response was referred towards OP since he mentioned he wanted to run every emulator. I know what an Amazon Fire TV is and that this is the Android Development section, but believe me when I say this, you'll be better off pulling weeds off the ground than trying to get Dolphin to run or be playable for that matter mate. Even if you do get the dev. attention to get it to be optimized for the TV, priority will be towards devices that are most compatible with GPU drivers and hardware first than anything else. Good luck.

The difference is that Amazon's android fork is craptastic,  and ES 3.0 barely works because support was achieved through hacky code and they use outdated drivers on their devices.

If you can get CM12 on it that would make a huge difference
