Shield Experience 9.1.1 is rolling out to all Shield TV devices -- we got ours last night. To be fair we didn't notice much, but Nvidia assures us that there is a new power control option that allows the Shield to wake when the TV input is changed to the Shield input.
New Dolby Vision controls have been added to the developer options, and Nvidia says it has reorganised and cleaned up that menu as well.
There’s an update to the Shield TV app on Android phones which fixes an issue that prevented the app from launching properly on Samsung Galaxy devices.
The full changelog for Shield Experience 9.1.1 includes:
Added power control option to wake SHIELD when TV input changes to SHIELD
A developer option to force Dolby Vision Low Latency if available
Enable if Dolby Vision not properly detected on Philips TVs
Fixes large smb file transfer disconnect issues by disabling anonymous access by virus scanners
