    Apple TV 4K not waking or putting Sony TV to sleep (HDMI-CEC problem?)

    Posted: 31 Mar 2019 12:50 AM PDT

    My setup: Sony BRAVIA X950G with a Sonos Beam and an Apple TV 4K.

    I always have to hit the home button on the Apple TV remote multiple times to wake the Sony TV up, and whenever I put the Apple TV to sleep, it never puts the Sony TV to sleep. The Apple TV goes to sleep, just leaving a "no input" screen on the TV. I just end up having to turn the TV off manually.

    I've tried it with the "Control TVs and Receivers" both turned on and turned off in the Apple TV settings.

    I also have ensured the HDMI-CEC (in this case, "BRAVIA Sync") is turned on in the Sony TV and I see the Apple TV in the enabled list.

    I'm not sure if maybe the Sonos is to blame; the "Audio Output" in the Apple TV settings seems to sometimes have the Apple TV icon selected and sometimes the speaker icon selected, and I have no idea why. Maybe it's interfering with the Apple TV's control of the Sony TV?

    Anyone have a similar experience or can offer any suggestions?

    Thanks so much.

    Anyone have trouble using the remote from control center on latest update?

    Posted: 30 Mar 2019 06:23 PM PDT

    iPhone Is on 12.2 and TV is on 12.2, after updating using the remote from control center has been very glichy. Tapping on the touchpad does nothing, I tried scrolling while pause and also pausing and it doesn't do anything. Installed the remote app and it works fine in the remote app just not in the control center.

    Anything with Dolby audio will not play center channel after recent update

    Posted: 30 Mar 2019 02:33 PM PDT

    Hi all,

    Ever since the tvOS 12.2 update, any shows or movies with Dolby audio (from any app) does not play the center channel audio. I currently have the Apple TV hooked up to my tv and then a sound bar connected through ARC. I have never encountered this issue before and have restarted the Apple TV, tv, and sound bar. Has anyone else encountered any audio issues like this?

    Hulu app making me throw things

    Posted: 30 Mar 2019 09:14 PM PDT

    Anyone know why the Hulu app (and only the Hulu app) constantly turns on subtitles on my ATV4K? Every single episode I have to swipe down and switch back to off. Any tricks? This is driving me insane.

    Posted: 30 Mar 2019 08:01 PM PDT

    I know Google photos recently updated their API and since then"easyphoto pro" for Apple TV does not work.

    I get a black screen where it should show google photos and videos and when I go to settings it shuts down the app.

    Is anybody else having issues?

    AppleTV won’t stay on

    Posted: 30 Mar 2019 08:32 AM PDT

    It's basically become unusable. When I click the remote, the white LED lights up on the front like it's waking up. If I switch the TV source to the AppleTV, I can see a brief moment of the home screen with my apps, then the LED turns off and the TV goes black. About one time in ten I do this, it stays on and I can actually watch something.

    Is this a common problem? I'm pretty mad. It wasn't cheap, and less than 2 years later it's broken (unless I'm doing something wrong?)

    What’s a good Dolby Atmos soundbar that can be controlled with the remote app?

    Directv available within the AppleTv app?

    Posted: 30 Mar 2019 10:03 PM PDT

    I'm confused. I'm a long time Directv subscriber and last week at the event Apple said that Directv channels will be able to be accessed within the app. Did they mess up and really mean Directv now or did they mean Directv? I can't find anything online. I just rewatched the event and I'm 100% sure they said Dtv and Not DTV now. Any help?

    How to make Siri play a show using a given streaming service?

    Posted: 30 Mar 2019 08:52 PM PDT

    I am trying to make Siri on the remote run a show on a given streaming service. For example, if trying to play Midsomer Murders (On Amazon and Netflix) it always chooses Amazon, even if I say "Play Midsomer Murders on Netflix". Any thoughts?

    3rd party apps like Soda Player and Web Torrent no longer able to Airplay from Mac

    Posted: 30 Mar 2019 03:46 PM PDT

    I remember reading that Apple updated their protocols to which it affected these 3rd party apps, but I haven't been able to do it for a while now and it's getting frustrating. Does anybody know any torrent streaming apps that still support airplay?

    Issue pairing Apple Watch (s3) with Apple TV.

    Posted: 30 Mar 2019 09:24 AM PDT

    So Ive found several articles about setting up the remote app after the devices are paired, but for the life of me I can't even get my Apple TV to acknowledge my watch. I can't find any way to add a device. Under General - remote - remote app and devices I see a note that says "to pair a device hold it close to the Apple TV" but my watch has been sitting on top of the Apple TV for a bit and nothing has happened. Any idea what I'm missing? Any help would be appreciated!

    I hate the ATV4/K remote with a murderous passion

    Posted: 30 Mar 2019 04:32 AM PDT

    I've lost count of the number of times I've gone to select something, and the remote has interpreted my click as a left or right movement along with the click and has selected something I didn't intend to select. I also often press the wrong button because they're too close together. The only thing it has going for it is the volume control. I'm seriously considering buying a used ATV3 remote just so I can have something that doesn't piss me off.

    Apple TV remote fixed with superglue in the cracks and two layers of clear packing tape. At least I have no problem figuring out what side is up in the dark now.
