    HBO NOW Support (regarding ATV Channels’ HBO)

    Posted: 13 May 2019 11:40 PM PDT

    What happened to live news on the TV section of new update? It was in the beta... but nowhere to be found this morning

    Posted: 14 May 2019 03:42 AM PDT

    Working for anyone else?

    Apple now has two different ways to subscribe to video app. They cost the same and have different features. WTF?

    Posted: 13 May 2019 08:40 PM PDT

    Can someone explain why I should subscribe to video services as channels? It seems like a crappy deal. Take HBO for example...

    Subscribe through the HBO Now iOS or tvOS app and you get:

    • $15 a month
    • The TV app will say HBO content can be "Opened In" the HBO App installed on your device
    • The TV app will show you ad banners to try out the HBO "channel"
    • You can log into the HBO app or website

    Subscribe to HBO through the TV app and you get:

    • $15 a month
    • The TV app will open HBO content directly within itself
    • The TV app will no longer show you ad banners to try out the HBO "channel"
    • You can not log into the HBO app or website

    So wait: the new TV app doesn’t allow you to open shows (like a sports event on NBCSports) without exiting TV and launching the appropriate application?

    Posted: 13 May 2019 05:14 PM PDT

    …and HBO Now doesn't automatically link to Apple's HBO channel?

    Such confusion. This "upgrade" seems like a regression, unless I'm misunderstanding how it's supposed to work.

    Where does Apple get subtitles

    Posted: 13 May 2019 11:54 PM PDT

    I was wondering where does Apple get subtitles for the movies, because I am not a native English speaking and most of my friends don't even speak English, and I can't buy movies because no one else is going to understand them. I know some movies have localized posters with the title and everything in my language, but when I go into more details, there is no audio and/or subtitles in my language.

    Subscriptions not syncing between devices

    Posted: 13 May 2019 05:55 PM PDT

    So I downloaded everything and I'm up to date. I canceled my HBO NOW subscription and resubscribed to the HBO for Apple TV channel, but it's only working on my phone and my Apple TV.

    When I go to an HBO show on my iPad. It just says "Try HBO free" instead of play. Ive turned off/turned on, deleted the Apple TV app and re-installed, reset network settings, cancelled my new HBO for Apple TV subscription and re-subscribed, signed out of iCloud and signed back in, but still nothing.

    Is anyone else having this problem?

    When I do click "Try HBO free" it says "You're currently subscribed to this," but never changes to give me the option to play.

    Just really frustrating that I'm trying really hard to do things the way Apple wants me to do them but I get shut out of services on certain devices on day 1.

    AppleTV 4K w/ TCL Roku 4K HDR TV: HDR makes the colors look washed out and worse than SDR. Why?

    Posted: 13 May 2019 06:08 PM PDT

    I wish I could take screenshots to accurately show what I mean but I'll try to explain it a bit more:

    I have 4 TCL Roku 4K HDR TV's in my house. Living is the 65" model and my Main and Guest bedrooms have the 55" models. Each TV is hooked up to an AppleTV 4K. And each AppleTV 4K is set to use HDR at 4K 60fps with 4:2:2 chroma.

    The weird part is that if I turn off HDR in the AppleTV settings, the colors on the TV look better. The blacks, blues, reds, everything. It all looks better without HDR. As soon as I turn on HDR, things get a yellowish washed out hue to them. And I don't understand why.

    I tried to take a picture of my TV in both settings (hope it helps):

    55" Model with HDR enabled in ATV4K settings

    55" Model without HDR enabled in ATV4K settings

    First picture is 4K HDR 60Hz, Chroma 4:2:2

    Second picture is 4K SDR 60Hz, HDMI Output YCbCr, Chroma 4:4:4

    Has anyone experienced something like this with their TCL (or other brand) 4K HDR TV's?

    HBO channel in new TV app supports frame rate matching!

    Posted: 13 May 2019 10:40 AM PDT

    No idea the bit rate, though.

    EDIT: It's pretty bright in my living room right now so take this with a grain (no pun intended) of salt, but I'm skipping around through "The Long Night" and the quality seems as good as if not better than the Prime Video channel stream. Could be pretty good news!

    EDIT 2: No HBO NOW access as of launch; it's definitely separate from HBO NOW via iTunes ("Restore Purchase" prompts me to renew my subscription). Hopefully it's something they're working on... HBO has to add "Apple TV channels" as a provider like they did "Prime Video channels."

    Game of Thrones Purchased in iTunes

    Posted: 13 May 2019 09:42 PM PDT

    Considering the streaming quality is supposed to be better through the Apple HBO Channel, what about shows purchased directly through iTunes? Would the quality be the same?

    Playing family sharing purchases

    Posted: 13 May 2019 08:52 PM PDT

    In the new 12.3 TV app, if I search for a movie I know a family member has purchased, the title's detail screen offers both a Play and a Download button...but neither work.

    Anyone else running into this?

    iOS 12.3 HBO Now and Channel

    Posted: 13 May 2019 01:18 PM PDT

    I saw that you can download HBO episodes if you subscribe to HBO via Apple Channels. But I noticed that some episodes don't have the download icon (i.e. Game of Thrones). When I tap into the episode it seems my HBO Now subscription is the "default" for those episodes but not others. It could be that I had played those in Now and it preserves that state. So I removed Now from my iPhone but the issue is still there.

    Has anyone seen this?

    Edit: I turned off HBO Now has a connected app in settings and it's works now

    How does the TV App work for watching my favorite TV shows?

    Posted: 13 May 2019 08:49 PM PDT

    I use an app called WatchAid to add and track viewing progress of my favorite TV shows. For instance, I track Fallon (NBC), Kimmel (ABC), Billions (Showtime), Impossible Engineering (SciHD) etc. It bundles the episodes by season and remembers the last episode I have watched. It direct plays the episodes without have to manually start the app (e.g. Showtime).
    I may ditch WatchAid if all the hype about the new TV app suggests it can now do all of what WatchAid does. Anyone able to share their experience?

    Can't select where to watch on New Apple TV app

    Posted: 13 May 2019 02:40 PM PDT

    Everything defaults to my TV Provider Spectrum to add to up next. Even if I choose say Featured on HBO go. Before we had choices. Thinking this is because of now being able to buy through Apple.

    Up Next not working for 1 show

    Posted: 13 May 2019 07:52 PM PDT

    I am using the new TV app (but this problem was happening before the update as well) and am watching the show "24" on Hulu. The TV app is not registering this in the Up Next section. Every other show I watch on Hulu ends up in Up Next, even shows I watch live for just a couple minutes. Is this a Hulu problem or an Apple problem? What could I do to fix it?

    tl;dr What to do when a recurring tv series does not appear in TV app Up Next section?

    Up Next using MLB At Bat only

    Posted: 13 May 2019 06:09 PM PDT

    My local baseball game is blacked out on MLB At Bat, naturally.

    The TV app doesn't want to find it anywhere else using Up Next. I don't even have the option to pick anything other than MLB At Bat, even though I excluded the At Bat from "Connect to TV".

    I would prefer it find the game on the FoxSports Go or PSVue apps.

    Are some movies purchased from iTunes being downgraded from 4K to HD?

    Posted: 13 May 2019 08:21 AM PDT

    The last time I checked my library in the TV app it showed 89 4K movies.

    Today I checked and now it says 83 movies. I think the total number of movies is still correct. I found some movies that I definitely purchased in 4K are now only HD.

    Last November I bought the Matrix Trilogy in 4K and right now only the first movie in that set shows to be in 4K.

    There must be others but I can't figure those out yet.

    Is it just me or the new Apple TV app is horrible?

    Posted: 13 May 2019 02:14 PM PDT

    So I updated to iOS 12.3 (why a full update for an app I dont know) and launched the new TV app. I was instantly frustrated. Here are my thoughts:

    1. The new-ish design is not to bad, but it could be better.

    2. They need to stop pushing iTunes purchase and rentals. (Annoyed a s hell. I have subs already that I connect to the app and I just want to see that stuff)

    3. The Live News section in my app is gone. (Why?)

    4. I still gotta launch most video in another app. (The whole is useless at this point.)

    The app remains in my opinion so gimped that it is actually not even useful. It creates more frustration and just the fact that you have to open most of the content in other apps STILL blows my minds. It seems to me that lately Apple software has been inferior (example: Apple News) which is sad considering it was the main reason I had stuck with Apple devices for so long.

    What do you think of the new App?

    Report titles that have reverted from 4K to HD?

    Posted: 13 May 2019 05:10 PM PDT

    Is there a place to do this with Apple? Made a purchase because it was listed under "now available in 4k". For the last few days it's been listed in HD only. Thanks.
