For Nvidia Shield, check the account format, selected server and expiry before reinstalling the player. App activation and a service subscription can be separate.

Activation and login on Nvidia Shield

A saved playlist name can be anything the player allows; the server choice and issued username/password must match the actual account. A developer activation screen may ask about the app licence rather than the service term.

Device decoding capability does not establish the resolution or audio tracks by a channel.

Confirm the outcome
