i installed using the latest gapps package from purenexus.
initial setup was a pain..... lots of fc's. i left it overnight and came back to it working much better.

once up and running, works well. occassional freezes and occasional crashes of the leanback launcher, but overall a great wip.
lots of additional features one would be accustomed to using modern CM based roms. Cast receiver does not appear to be working. Nor does the mic on the remote.
once play services updates itself(i suspect) a lot of things stop fc'ing and the overall use smoothes out.

think there should be a new forum thread for these builds..... as far as I can tell they are receiving the most attention with nightly builds, and aicp in general is a great rom....

You could probably start an Unofficial thread on AICP, if you wanted to. Just follow the proper syntax like other threads and point to AICP. Possibly add some screenshots, and some helpful info you discovered as well. We need more ROM threads in the forums for fugu.

I agree completely that we could use more Fugu Roms. I have inquired with the PureNexus team and have gotten positive feedback. However, no posts of updated builds as of yet.

As far as AICP, I don't think it would be appropriate for me to start a thread since I have no affiliation with the team. I am enjoying their Android-x86 build on my laptop which runs flawless, and have previously used on my cell phones. But I would not be maintaining builds for the Nexus Player, not do I have a build environment set up right now to contribute.

I keep an eye on their work and will share info as it becomes relevant. But not for me to share someone else's work on XDA. They will make it available on here if they see fit. Last time I flashed, it was not ready for everyday use. Although it did have some great possibilities to improve on should they choose to do so ?

about 2 months ago I wrote in G+ AICP group, asking them to open a thread here...
they did not
I don't know why, but It's an interesting project.

We should solve the gapps problem, probably the opengapps works well, but I would use the leanback gapps for that.

I was successful in installing the AICP 2/27 nightly for fugu using the gapps package from PureNexus ROM thread in Nexus Player Original Android Development.

The ROM had some FC's (not often) but more importantly, had freezes of the AndroidTV launcher. There have been several night lies since, including one dated 3/10(yesterday) but I am yet to flash it and test if there are any improvements to overall usability. Part of the problem is that they have a Jenkins set for automatic builds for all supported devices. And while I've seen the ROM run great on cellular devices, the AndroidTV interface and framework is much different. I'm not sure who is maintaining builds and if they are keeping up with weather or not changes/commits to the overall AICP project are playing nicely with AndroidTV. Lots of things get changed regularly to improve cell phone usage without consideration for AndroidTV. Same is true for CM, PureNexus, etc.
I am still trying to determine who to contact in regards to AICP builds for the Nexus Player and I myself am very busy with a project to revive an ancient tablet called the Dell Streak 7(Omni) as well as testing for several ROMs for the Tmo LG G4(Omni, DU, CM13)

All that said, I will flash and test the latest AICP nightly sometime in the next 24 hours. I may start a thread in Nexus Player > General for discussion of the AICP ROM for NP so that we can respectfully stop the posts here since it should not be located in this thread.

Apologies to the OP

I installed this rom and everything works very well minus audio. It seems to cut out every so often? This happened on Netflix and playing a music video through VLC. The video was played both from the Nexus Player itself and an external hard drive. It seemed to play better off of the Nexus itself. I've never had this issue before. Anyone have any ideas?

Question, say I want to be able to use apps that aren't 'Android TV approved' can I still choose the leanback launcher and leanback Gapps? or do I need to choose trebuchet and full G. Apps or something else entirely?
