Does anyone else find that YouTube ads are worse on the Apple TV?

Posted: 31 Oct 2021 11:09 PM PDT

When I watch YouTube on my phone I have the option to skip all ads after five seconds. But on the Apple TV I have to sit through two full (~15 second) ads.

Why is this? Is it just me?

Remote app

Posted: 01 Nov 2021 02:13 AM PDT

I'm bored to tears with having to go via my control centre every time I want to access the remote app. With the stand-alone one could at least keep it live in multi-tasking. Has anyone found a third party app worth considering, or just a work around?

Differences between the Apple TV 4K versions

Posted: 31 Oct 2021 05:22 PM PDT

Hey can someone help me figure out the differences between the 2 Apple TV 4K versions? I just got AirPods and want to watch stuff in Dolby atmos spatial audio on there but don't have a 4K tv, will it still work? Also will the Apple TV 4K let me get Dolby atmos spatial audio on Netflix, hbo max, vudu, etc? Apple TV app lets me get Dolby atmos on my phone but that's the only app so what about Apple TV 4K? Sorry for all the questions I just don't want to spend a decent amount of money and not get what I'm looking for

No Head Tracking Spatial Audio in Apple Music

Posted: 01 Nov 2021 03:25 AM PDT

I just bought the Apple TV 2021 4K yesterday and connected my AirPods Pro. I updated to tvOS 15.1 and the Apple TV app worked with Spatial Audio and Head tracking also worked. But when I use Apple Music , Spatial Audio is always on and on the control Panel i cannot switch it off. It shows "Dolby Atmos, No Head Tracking". So when I move my head the audio doesnt stay in place. I turned off and turned on Center on TV button on Accessibility Airpods settings. I kept it on now and Still head tracking didnt work. Please help me with this

Apple TV and Vizio TV lose connection…

Posted: 31 Oct 2021 11:46 PM PDT

My television will lose signal from my Apple TV sometimes. If I'm playing something in HBOmax or Netflix or whatever and I press the menu button on the remote the signal "blips" for a second. Black screen. Then the TV prompts as if the appleTV was just turned on for the first time.

It's annoying because it will do it when opening an app, double tapping the home button, backing out of a show to get back to an app menu…

Any clue what this is?

Videos lose contrast mid scene

Posted: 31 Oct 2021 10:37 PM PDT

I've been noticing since getting my gen2 Apple TV 4K that videos will seemingly randomly lose contrast mid scene has anyone else experienced this?
I've seen it on Netflix and Apple TV+ content. I can repeat the scene several times and the same thing will happen. But randomly it will stop happening.

Today I managed to get a video of the issue you can see it happening here at around 8 seconds in.

https://youtu.be/x65ZIndITSU

You can see in this video the issue never happens, but now watching it back it doesn't look as 'vivid' at the start either?

https://youtu.be/8dYlnyNfG5c

I also got a new TV (75" Sony x950h) that could also be the cause.

Apple TV 4k Remote and Soundbar

Posted: 31 Oct 2021 08:06 PM PDT

Looking for some advice... Just got a new Apple TV 4k and connected it to Yamaha soundbar and Samsung TV. Looks like everything is working fine except one thing.

I would like to control all 3 devices with the Apple TV remote. I can except for the following scenario - when everything is off, and I am turning all the devices on by pressing the power button on the Apple TV remote only the Apple TV and the TV turn on, not the soundbar. I then turn them off (long press of power button on the Apple TV remote), and turn the devices on within the next minute - all 3 devices turn on. Subsequently turning them all off is not a problem - all 3 turn off.

Any idea/suggestions on why the soundbar is not turned on the first time around?

I am using the ARC HDMI ports to connect the TV and the soundbar, and the TV has its CEC on.

Thank you!

Posted: 31 Oct 2021 07:07 PM PDT

Is anyone's Airpods heating up when they use it with Apple TV?

My left airpods feels like it's heating up whenever I am using on Apple 4k TV.

Is this a hardware issue I should go to Apple store to get it inspected/repairs?

Homepods Home Theater mode sound issues with HBO Max

Posted: 31 Oct 2021 11:06 AM PDT

So, let me explain. HBO Max arrived in my country on October 26th, and since then, I´ve been having dialogue intelligibility issues when using my stereo pair of original Homepods as the default audio output of my Apple TV 4K.

In particular, I feel that dialogue sounds very very low and muffled, to the point that I have to turn on subtitles to understand what is being said.

Also, sometimes it sounds like the overall audio mix has balance and clarity issues. To me, the audio issues seem the same that Infuse had before they update their app to properly support surround sound with the Homepods.

Other apps sound completely fine.

Anyone else having the same problem with HBO Max streams and their OG Homepods?

Help: Dolby Vision Judder/HDR Ghosting

Posted: 31 Oct 2021 12:56 PM PDT

Having issues with my Apple TV 4K 2021 on my Hisense 55U8G. I experience serious judder on any Dolby Vision content, and ghosting/smearing with dark scenes. I've troubleshot this with Hisense and can check against it by using the native smart tv apps, which I don't have either of these issues. But of course, my preference is to use my Apple TV and would love to get to the bottom of the issue.

My setup: AppleTV Model: AppleTV 4K 2021 TV: Hisense 55U8G Cable: Zeskit Ultra Highspeed 8k/10 HDMI cable

Settings: Enable Dolby Vision Format: 4K SDR Chroma: 4:4:4 Match Content: Range & Frame Rate

Randomly lost control of volume on tv

Posted: 31 Oct 2021 06:03 AM PDT

Randomly today I have lost the ability to control my Insignia Fire TV volume using Siri remote or even on iPhone. I have new AT4k and remote would control volume fine before.

TV set to HDMI-CEC "on" ATV Control TVs and Receivers set to "on" ATV Volume Control set to "Auto via HDMI (TV)" HDMI port plugged into ARC on tv

The remote will turn on/off TV just not volume control anymore. Not real sure why it just randomly stopped working. I restarted the AT4K and the TV. My TV remote will not work when trying to the Learn option under volume controls. It says there is no signal however it does turn up the volume on the tv in the process. I read many of the post but nothing worked for me any other tips?
