    ATV4 not able to access home share after 12.1.2 update.

    I noticed my ATV4 is not recognizing an available home share after the 12.1.2 update. I have a couple ATV3's that access the home share fine. I've tried all of the typical fixes: Reboot ATV and Mac, signout and sign back in to home share, reboot wireless router, forget wireless network on both...

    TVos/TVapp - integrate external library into Up Next?

    I'm trying to wrap my head around the newer 4/4K model, TV app, and Up Next feature. From those with experience in these things... Is there an app that would allow me to integrate, let's say a 'folder' of personal library shows from a networked drive, into the TV app Up Next? Or would the...

    ATV4gen + Onkyo 656 - Audio/Video Sync Issues

    Not sure what is going on but this started a couple of weeks ago. I made no changes and the only thing that has changed is the ATV4 updates that have come out. Two major things have started: Video starts playing fine (any app) and then after a few minutes, becomes "slow mo". I have to pause...

    No picture after update to tvOS 11 on ATV 4

    After updating to tvOS 11.0 I lost the picture when ATV 4 is connected true Pioneer WX-321. I have tried to connect other devices like BD player and SAT box and they are working fine. I use the same HDMI-cable as connected device work well with. Have tried to change resolution on ATV without any...

    Are their any aftermarket remotes worthwhile for the ATV4?

    Have been running the Apple TV 4 on two TVs in my house since December and use them as my main service. Everything is great except the damn remote. Can’t take it anymore more. Are there any good aftermarket remotes you guys have tried that works well? I don’t need any touch features so I...

    Apple TV 3 or 4 - Newbie Questions

    Hi all, I'm a long time Apple device user (phone and tablet). However, I've never owned an AppleTV. I'm a DirecTV subscriber with all the premium stuff, however my girlfriend cut the cord on cable this year. I've shared my DirecTV credentials with her to use on her iPad, so she has access to...

    Hooking up ATV4 to xfinity hotspot

    Just bought an ATV4. I live in an apartment complex and get my internet via an xfinity hotspot using my sister's credentials. It works great on iPhone, but when I try to connect to it with atv, it doesn't come up with the login screen. Like many wifi hotspots, it shows up as "unlocked" on the...

    ATV4 UI: Folder names in tvOS 9.2 not always displayed

    I am not sure if this is intended or whether it only affects my setup. I will assume the former. Since installing tvOS 9.2, I have created quite a number of folders to make navigation and location of apps that I have forgotten the name of that much easier... well, that was the plan anyway. The...

    Home Sharing Video Freezing (ATV4)

    I've recently run into an issue with my ATV4 streaming video via Home Sharing. Essentially what happens (as the title suggests) is that the video will freeze frame or start stuttering (showing 1 frame every 10-15 seconds). Meanwhile the audio continues without issue. I have been able to...

    How can I display a clip I see on my Mac or iPad on my ATV4?

    Sometimes when I see a clip on webpage on my computer or iPad (I also have an Android phone where this could come in handy) I want to show it on my TV using my Apple TV 4. Just enabling Airplay and mirror the screen isn't good enough because of frame drops and general stuttering. Also, the...

    MLB on Apple TV

    Has anyone found a good way to watch live, in-market MLB games on the Apple TV? We cut cable a few weeks ago and I have yet to find a way to watch the Yankees live in upstate NY. Seems like the MLB has some pretty arcane blackout rules that prevent watching any live games online, even if you...

    Is 32g enough? (ATV4)

    Simply put, is anyone with a 64g really glad they didn't get the smaller one? Anyone with a 32g glad they didn't spend the extra money? Unlike in the states, Apple made it $100 different here in New Zealand. $300 or $400, and while I'd like to have one, I'd prefer saving the money. Of course...

    Has the Siri Remote Doomed the Apple TV?

    Probably not, but with so many people saying that they "hate" the new remote you have to wonder what Apple will do to correct these misgivings with the next revision of the product. I'm going to come right out and say it, the touch surface on the Siri remote has got to go. What I'm concerned...

    Siri Remote poor response to trackpad clicks

    My Siri remote has started to exhibit poor responsiveness to when the trackpad is clicked. Swiping on it still moves the focus around the app icons and up and down menus, but clicking in the center to select stuff often takes one, two or sometimes more tries to get it to register. Same goes for...

    ATV4 Perfect Storm...

    ATV4 (64GB) has worked flawlessly since Christmas. However, yesterday, when I turned it on, the home screen came up as normal. But when I tried to open an app (Netflix), it just went to a blank white screen and stuck there. Tried force closing apps, restarting, etc. and nothing worked. I...

    ATV 4 Issue - anyone else?

    Hi, I'm a long time Apple TV user, and have a new ATV4. While watching content, either streaming through Neflix or Hulu, or, videos stored on my network, the entire signal drops out for a few seconds, and then comes back. I checked and replaced cables, so I don't think the problem is there. The...
