    This feature is long overdue. Disney+ is leading the way with limited movies in IMAX Enhanced. Hope AppleTV+ is next.

    Why does it take so long for thumbnails to show in Library? Sometimes they do not seem to load at all, is it just me?

    i need help to make a music visualizer for apple tv

    Posted: 29 Nov 2021 03:41 AM PST

    but before i start i want to make sure it is even possible, so i have a few questions:

    -is it possible to grant acces to apple music to third party apps on appletv?

    -would it be possible to also use it as a screen saver, or would you have to always have the app opened? (this one is not that important tho)

    also i'd like to note that i have not made any app so far, so don't expect it too soon lol.

    Wheel of Time on my AppleTV looks really, really bad

    Posted: 28 Nov 2021 12:29 PM PST

    I'm trying to stream Wheel of Time in 4K but it's very low quality and there's a lot of splotchy colors. Is there something wrong with my setup or is this on Amazon's side? I can't imagine this is how it's supposed to look?

    ATV Test WiFi Incredible Speed

    Posted: 29 Nov 2021 05:57 AM PST

    I always had speed limitation using WEBOS, even connected via cable.

    My internet is 500 megs and when doing the test on ATV via wifi it always exceeds my contracted speed. This is amazing!

    My router is next to the ATV, I don't see the need to use it via data cable. Anyone who has problems with limited internet on their TV, switch to ATV.

    Invasion is very dark

    Posted: 28 Nov 2021 06:00 AM PST

    I'm I the only one that thinks Invasion is very dark and hard to see? Even the daytime scenes are very muted. But the night time scenes are nearly impossible to watch because the screen is so dark you can't see anything. I even have the brightness turned all the way up. I have to watch in a totally dark room to have any hope of making out anything in the nighttime scenes.

    I'm not sure what kind of artistic vision the director or cinematographer was going for but whatever it was it is very annoying to watch.

    Where does Infuse get its metadata? Is there a way to fix?

    Posted: 29 Nov 2021 02:30 AM PST

    The episode order for the anime version of Cowboy Bebop is completely fucked up and there doesn't seem to be any way to override it. How should I deal with this? Other than just by ignoring the metadata entirely.

    Edit: Seems to be TMDB.

    Will look at reporting it there somehow.

    Here is the actual episode order: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Cowboy_Bebop_episodes

    Here is what they have on TMDB: https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/30991-cowboy-bebop/season/1?sort_by=episode_number.asc

    Edit 2: It seems that the Infuse team have listened and are already implementing this!! this thread has the details

    Edit 3: OH man that post was from 2017

    After using for 3 months, I feel old remote was much better for navigation.

    Posted: 28 Nov 2021 12:23 PM PST

    Unless apps such as Youtube or other streaming services starts to support jog feature, its going to be very annoying to use the new remote.

    For example in my old remote, I used to click right side during Youtube playback and it usually skips 10 seconds forward fine. But in new remote it just shows thumbnail of what's happening 10 secs forward. You have to press dead center or hit 'pause/play' button to move forward. Otherwise it just resumes from where you left. Very annoying to skip through portions.

    Another thing, which might be just an issue for TVos, is that if there are more menus just above the video players, its difficult to reach those unless you go perfectly 90° angle upwards.

    If you want to know how much better a remote can be, try the same remote in your iPhone. Much more responsive and accurate.

    Two DualShock 4 controllers detected differently

    Posted: 28 Nov 2021 09:50 PM PST

    Hi!

    I recently bought Apple TV 4K 2021 model (really happy with it) and got Provenance installed on it. I also connected two of my DualShock 4 controllers (both are the CUH-ZCT2E model) and started a NES game – I noticed huge lag in with only one of the controllers while the other was working fine.

    Note: The lag seems apparent also in AppleTV UI itself and the Provenance UI. Possibly it is not that much of a lag, but missing button events - pressing repeatedly, mostly the third one reacts and also holding a button and releasing might continue scrolling few more "items/tiles".

    When looking into it, I noticed that in the Bluetooth devices list, while both have the same name DualShock 4 Controller, the one DS that is having the lag had just two options: Disconnect and Unpair, while the other controller which works fine had a lot more options, including Identify which would rumble the controller and re-mapping options for all of the buttons. Also on the left side a proper DualShock 4 image is highlighting the buttons as I move around the menu (the problematic controller did not even have this DS image to the left side).
    I have repeatedly unpaired and paired again both controllers to no avail – still exactly one of them is detected "better" than the other.

    I also have a SteamController, which I now got connected. It is detected also in the "simplistic" way showing only Disconnect and Unpair options, but fortunately, it does not have any lag, allowing me to play two-player games properly.

    While the SteamController is not officially supported, my question is how come the two DS4 controllers are detected differently? If it were hardware issue, the UI should still present the same re-mapping options, etc for both controllers, no?

    Why doesn't Oprah sell [many] episodes of her iconic Oprah Winfrey Show to Apple TV+? Clearly, people still watch these shows when they're uploaded on YouTube.

    Posted: 29 Nov 2021 03:07 AM PST

    Some of them are quite historical moments; when she interviewed Al Gore and Bush consecutively in what many call a deciding fate for the 2000 election; her interview with Nelson Mandela; audience's live reaction to the OJ Simpson verdict; The Color Purple and Sound of Music reunions; that once in a lifetime interview with Ralph Lauren and his family in 2011; the much-anticipated Sarah Palin 2009 interview etc.

    Her child abuse shows, like when she had Tyler Perry and over 100 men who were molested, each holding a picture of the time when they started experiencing abuse, are timeless teaching moments. There are many psychological and health matters addressed on that show that are still relevant today (e.g. Dr Phil episodes, her then traniner Bob Greene's fitness episodes etc.).

    Even the controversial episodes like The James Frey 2006 drama, The 2005 Hermes incident episode (where she began with Jennifer Aniston's first TV interview since divorce from Brad Pitt), both two episodes of her reunion of Iyanla Vanzant etc. would be worth watching.

    Some shows are helpful in that they captured the moment of the time: her racism shows of the 1980s, how the gay men faced homophobia while in the middle of a devestating AIDS pandemic etc.

    The fun ones too: the 2005 couch incident; the interview with both Cher and Tina Turner in Las Vegas; the show where she gave aways cars; her much-acclaimed road-trip with Gayle; her farewell shows; the interview she did with Barbara Walters when she released her autobiography Audition (a fascinating career and life Barbs had), also when she took hundreds of Harpo staff and their family members on vacation etc. I could go on and on. I enjoyed all shows she did with Barbra Streisand, including the 2003 iconic one (Mad TV made a good joke out of it) and the 2010 one when she reunited with Robert Redford and performed The Way We Were.

    She even has other TV specials that where not part of the show but have left a mark on the culture. Her 2006 Legends' Ball, and her interview with Michael Jackson in the 1990s (the most watched interview in history) etc.

    What would be stopping her from considering making such a deal with Apple or any streaming service, given that that's what shows like KUWTK and Real Housewives franchises are doing with Netflix? I think she's that one talk-show host whom this would work best for.

    TL;DR: Why doesn't Oprah sell [many] episodes of her iconic Oprah Winfrey Show to Apple TV+? Clearly people still watch these shows when they're uploaded on YouTube.

    What is the best deal for an Apple TV?

    Posted: 28 Nov 2021 07:58 AM PST

    Right now I'm seeing that buying from the Apple store gives you a $50 gift card. Costco also has $10 off but only the 32 gig model. I think these are the two best deals at the moment. Has anyone seen anything else?

    Audio issues on Airplay

    Posted: 28 Nov 2021 05:39 PM PST

    When using Airplay to the TV (HBO Max/Succession), it randomly changes audio settings— subtitles, hearing assistance queues, Spanish dubs. ALL settings are normal and as they should be— on the iPhone, the TV, the app itself. Has anyone else ran into this?

    Apple TV 4K and LG C1 troubleshoot

    Posted: 28 Nov 2021 05:19 PM PST

    I recently got the LG C1 TV and I can't connect my Apple TV remote to control tv settings, such as volume. I have the HDMI 2.1 in the #1 slot and made sure LG HDMI-CEC is on. Here is what I have tried so far:

    I have gone to the Apple TV settings, chose Remotes and Devices, chose Volume Control, and selected Learn New Device. When I do this, my LG Magic Remote volume button does not register to the Apple TV that I am increasing the volume, even though the volume is increasing on the tv.

    I do not have cable and use the Apple TV as my main source of entertainment. My previous tv was able to be controlled by the Apple TV but it wasn't a smart TV like this new LG C1. Any suggestions on connecting my Apple TV to this new LG C1 so I am able to control Power, Source, and most importantly Volume would be greatly appreciated.

    Best Apple TV apps?

    Posted: 28 Nov 2021 05:17 PM PST

    I have an Apple TV 4 plugged into an Insignia Fire TV. Whenever I turn on everything via Apple TV remote, it defaults to the Fire TV interface. Anyone have an idea for it to stay on HDMI1 when I turn the TV on?

    Apple TV 3 or older no airplay

    Posted: 28 Nov 2021 09:41 AM PST

    So updated my phone to iOS 15 and now my Apple TV 3's no longer airplays. Conveniently my 4K still works. Called apple and they said they dropped the Apple TV 3 from airplay. I asked why and they said it's vintage and they are no longer supporting it. Sucks because my Apple TV 3 still works great otherwise.

    Airplay, 2021 LG C1 OLED

    Posted: 28 Nov 2021 03:10 PM PST

    Is it confirmed that airplay not working is a licensing issue? I can't get airplay to work almost at all. Screen mirroring works, but not airplaying content from MacBook (M1) or iPhone X.

    Is there a benefit to canceling Showtime on Amazon and then resubscribing through Apple TV?

    Posted: 28 Nov 2021 02:59 PM PST

    Title pretty much says it.

    Should I cancel Showtime thru Amazon and get it again thru Apple TV?

    Am I the only one who wishes there was a TV edit playback option for r-rated movies on AppleTV?

    Posted: 28 Nov 2021 08:10 PM PST

    I'm thinking about letting my 10 y/o watch Die Hard, because we talk about it quite a bit this time of the year.

    Newly bought 4K TV only shows 1080p options

    Posted: 28 Nov 2021 02:20 AM PST

    So I just bought a new 4K RCA TV but it only shows 1080p option when I connect it to my Apple TV 4K(previously connected to a 1080p tv). I bought a new 2.0 HDMI cable but it still does not work. Does anyone how I can make it work?

    Scrubbing no longer available on YouTube AppleTV app?

    Posted: 28 Nov 2021 06:35 AM PST

    I have multiple AppleTV (4K) and they have all in the past week developed this weird quirk that they can no longer scrub through a YouTube video in the YouTube app. If i want to rewind or fast forward it just isn't possible. I've tried it on different AppleTV with the same outcome.

    I can bring up the video info (similar to this image I found online) but can no longer rewind or scrub forward. Am I missing something?

    Wheel of Time animated shorts missing on Apple TV?

    Posted: 27 Nov 2021 08:33 PM PST

    There are supposed to be animated shorts that explain some lore on Wheel of Time on Amazon by pausing, going to X-Ray, and then bonus content. All I see on Apple TV when I do this is photos. Anyone seeing them on theirs? I have the newest version of the 4K.
