Playlists don't seem to work on Android TV (Nvidia Shield)

I'm able to create a playlist and can even access it from the top menu, but when I click on a file it takes me to what looks like a screencap of the Mezzmo player. Sort of odd. It's possible I'm doing something wrong, but it looks more like a bug to me.

Just curious if anyone else has seen this. I don't consider it critical because I only occasionally have the need for playlists, but a sort of nice to have feature.

That sounds to me like it's not detecting the movie correctly. Go into that playlist in the Mezzmo app itself and right lick on the file and select Play To and see if you can play it to the Shield that way. I have an nVidia Shield Pro and haven't encountered any issues.

That said, the Android app is much more convoluted to use than some of the other versions, like the Roku app, as an example.
