    How do I get the 3 months for free

    Posted: 01 Oct 2021 04:22 AM PDT

    I just bought the iPhone 12 mini and I think the 3 months of AppleTv+ still applies. However I don't know where to find that promotion. On the app it says that the free trial is 7 days.

    What do I need to do?

    Aspect Ratio is wrong when using ARC channel

    Posted: 01 Oct 2021 01:20 AM PDT

    I've been using appletv 4K for quite a while now, just using a basic HDMI channel with no issues. However, just recently I purchased a couple HomePods for a stereo pair and wanted to see if I could get the arc passthrough setup going. But once I switch the HDMI cord over into my tv's arc channel, although the audio passes through perfectly, the aspect ratio while using the ATV is horrendous. It's all squished into a square box in the middle, and the tv just says "Not available with current input" whenever I've tried to change the ratio from the tv's side. Anyone know what could fix this? Tv is a Sony Bravia KD-55X8500D ATV is 2021 version.

    Spatial Audio Not Working

    Posted: 30 Sep 2021 09:15 PM PDT

    Has anyone been expecting issues getting spatial audio to work? I went into Bluetooth settings to confirmed that it is enabled, which it is, but neither the demo nor any apps are tracking my head movements. I'm using AirPods Pro.

    EDIT: Solved. For some reason I'm having to turn it on the first time I launch an app. Once I relaunch the app it stays in by default. This is what was throwing me off: it says "enabled" in Settings, but you still need to actively turn it on via the control panel. Clear as mud.

    I’m not sure if it’s just a limited time offer or not, but the James Bond 24 movie collection 4K is available for purchase in the US for $99.99 right now.

    Just ordered a new Samsung Q80T but heard it’s not great with Apple TV?

    Posted: 01 Oct 2021 12:21 AM PDT

    As the title says, just ordered a new Samsung Q80T but have been reading up and apparently ATV doesn't play well with it, mainly because of the lack of HDR10+ support, forcing users recalibrate ATV to force SDR natively and then match the picture ranges.

    I way rather just keep the same picture setting always on. I'm coming from an OLED (much smaller, hence the upgrade), and I love just keeping it set to Dolby Vision on my ATV, regardless of the app/content. It always looks great.

    Should I just go with something other than Samsung if I'm mainly using ATV? Was thinking Sony as well.

    Thanks!

    Apple TV 4K 2021 with Sonos arc

    Posted: 30 Sep 2021 05:40 PM PDT

    Hi all. I've currently got home theatre stereo HomePods connected to my Apple TV. However thinking of upgrading to Sonos arc + sub. At the moment I can obviously have the HomePods as default audio, can I do the same with the arc? As I don't want to have to keep selecting the arc in the menu as the audio output.

    Also has anyone heard the HomePods vs Sonos arc + sub? Can you comment on which is the clear winner or if it's worth the upgrade

    Jon Stewart show not showing in TV+ tab

    Posted: 30 Sep 2021 08:13 PM PDT

    Maybe this is just me but today Jon Stewart's new show released but I couldn't find it anywhere in the TV+ tab. I ended up having to search to find it but thought it was weird since I can't recall this ever happening with other shows. Anyone else run into this?

    Is there a big difference in spatial audio playing on the air pods pro and air pods max?

    Posted: 30 Sep 2021 11:01 AM PDT

    So I just noticed the update lol I have air pods pro and am enjoying the spatial audio but wondering if I should upgrade to the air pods max? Is there a difference in the sound? Worth the price increase? Thanks in advance!

    Disney Plus App - No Atmos

    Posted: 30 Sep 2021 05:52 PM PDT

    Is this normal? I just noticed there was no Atmos anywhere in Disney Plus in any of my Apple TV devices. The app just says 5.1 and, of course, no Atmos plays. My TV's built-in app works just fine, as well as ATV's apps for other services.

    I noticed there were similar topics posted some months ago, but I wondered if the issue persisted or if it appeared again.

    Wake TV with Apple TV without using CEC?

    Posted: 30 Sep 2021 03:52 PM PDT

    I have a cheap older tv that doesn't support cec, so every time I turn on my Apple TV I need to manually power on the tv as well. Does anyone know of a setup that would automatically power on my tv when I powered on the Apple TV?

    The picture in several apps on my Apple TV is Blurry/Pixelated after TvOS 15 Update. The same apps work fine on my Iphone, Ipad, PC and Shield. Examples in post. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Posted: 30 Sep 2021 07:19 AM PDT

    Hey guys, ever since I updated my Apple TV 4K 2021 Model to TvOS 15 several of my daily apps I use the picture fails to clear. It remains really blurry and pixelated. Several of these Apps used to work just fine prior the the recent update. The picture would take a few seconds to stabilize and I was good to go. Unfortunately the picture remains like this on the Apple TV now on many of my apps. I have checked the same apps on my Ipad, Iphone, PC and Shield and the picture clears and plays perfectly fine.

    Examples below. Make sure you set 720P or the Video streams as they will default to 360P and won't really show my issue.

    Hope someone can help me. Just to clarify these apps are also working perfectly fine on my Iphone, Ipad and PC. This is just 3 apps on the Apple TV but it's happening on several.

    If you check out the logo clarity of each channel that will show the difference I'm seeing in streams.

    All devices are running on the same Network. Speed test shows 500mb down 450Mb Up. 7-10 Ping.

    I've tried several resets. Uninstalls to no avail. And tried messing with the resolution settings again to no avail....

    I have noticed one thing. Apps that have a Quality Toggle seem to work fine. I can load the toggle and set the quality. Apps that don't allow this seem to have the issue. It's like Apple is setting quality to Auto/Lowest Preset.

    Widgets/Information on Apple TV Screensavers

    Posted: 30 Sep 2021 01:09 PM PDT

    Basically what I'm trying to ask if there is anyway to put information on the screensavers page (like time and weather). I've been using the Aerial Screensaver on my Mac and I'm spoiled. I know I'm being lazy, but it would be nice

    Are there any third party screensaver apps with this functionality that can act as the primary screensaver app when the TV realizes it isn't being used? (Possibly even ones where I could upload my own files)

    Apple TV App Library blank on newest gen Apple TV, frozen in time on other Apple TVs in the house.

    Posted: 30 Sep 2021 12:28 PM PDT

    I noticed that my newer purchases weren't showing first on my phone, but that has been resolved. However on the Apple TV's, it won't update. Recent purchases shows the most recent purchase as something 13 movies ago. I have called Apple support and they have not been helpful stating an engineer is looking into it. It has been a month and I don't see any help. I have done all normal troubleshooting steps including rebooting, logging out and back in, updated TVos etc.

    Remove a service from “Watch Now?”

    Posted: 30 Sep 2021 08:08 AM PDT

    I bought the Office complete series at New Years and have been watching it lately. Unfortunately, if I return to watch later, "Watch Now" opens Peacock to resume watching the office even though I haven't been watching it on Peacock and have been watching it through Library." Is there a way to remove peacock from Watch now? I'm not even sure if there's a good option here
