    Apple TV 4k mirroring resolution

    Funny, I have googled and nothing! came up on this. Now that I can buy a 4k TV, what is the resolution my Mabcook Pro can stream to it? ...I understand that the Mac hardware (a few years back) needed a special chip to encode H264 to send to the Apple TV and thus only few Macs were supported...

    ATV 4K is a Scam! Not Truly Delivering 4k/HDR

    This is kind of an update to an earlier post I made. The ATV is a massive disappointment. It is just fundamentally broken. The problem with it not being able to automatically switch resolution is even more disastrous than I initially thought. I totally take back everything that I said about...

    So who is Returning their ATV over the Switch Issue?

    Very disappointed in my ATV. Some of you may know that this was my most anticipated device and I LOVED the fact that Apple was upgrading all my movies for free. I kept wondering what the catch was going to be. Now I know. Who at Apple thought it would be a good thing to release a Streaming...

    Encoding my own 4K content with Handbrake and iFlicks 2?

    I've happily used Handbrake to encode in Apple TV format, and iFlicks 2 to encode the metadata into my iTunes content for years. With the ATV4K I have tried modifying the Handbrake preset for the ATV3 to use h.265 and setting the max video size to 3480x2160 which (eventually!) gives a file that...

    Apple TV 4K: No support for 4K Videos from iCloud Photos!?
