(I forked this and made a slight modification from the original to clarify a part that had me confused)
There's a workaround that might be useful for some people - use the Shadowsocks app for Android TV. Because that app only accepts a JSON configuration file, you need to convert the Outline key to JSON.
- Take the following JSON file template:
{ "server":"YOUR-SERVER-IP", "server_port":12345,
"local_port":1080,
