The
Google T.V update that That Rolled out to
Sony Units Earlier this week (no word on the
Revue, yet) brought tweaks to Chrome and support for
Blu-ray 3D playback on the player, but that's not all. The bump to
Android 3.2 also improved hooks for developers to access channel
listings in their apps, enabled hardware acceleration and last but not
least, improved support for HTTP Live Streaming. That last detail is
particularly important to those streaming video from their PCs using
Plex,
since additional HLS tweaks were necessary to allow viewing of files
transcoded from otherwise-Google TV unfriendly formats. Also supported
as in the Plex update is selection of alternate audio streams,
subtitles, more channels and a few other fixes. Check out a Google+ post
from Les Vogel of the Google TV team for all the Honeycomb 3.2 (API
Level 13) details you can stomach, go to the Plex blog for more info on its
software, or just make sure you're running the latest updates and take a
look around yourself.
