I use a 4k ATV in my lounge and office, but all of my many other ATVs (about 10 in total) have been retired as the App works well enough for my other TVs and my parents home.

not anymore, and everything vanished, like MLB, NHL et. on the TV3.
i get crackle!

would erasing the current fossil os, and installing the original one get those stations?
(besides finding out the hard way)

College apartment living room:

Apple TV HD 32Gb
LG Ultrawide monitor
Marshall Acton bluetooth speaker

 

[JahBoolean]

4k 32 Gigs ATV

49' Samsung Serif TV

And my trusty server delivering content via steamlink/vlc

 

[stillcrazyman]

Sony 65" Bravia

ATV 4K with the new remote

Sonos Beam, Sub, and 2(R&L) Play 1s

 

[khollister]

Marantz 8805 processor, Emotiva XPA-5 power amplifier, Sony A9F 65" TV, B&W CM 8 (surround), CM 9 (front), CM center, HSU VTF-15 sub, Panasonic UB820 BDP, ATV 4K gen 5

Theater (recently rebuilt - just got rid of a projector setup and replaced all of the equipment):

15’x17’ room 9.5’ ceiling.

ATV 4K
LG C1 OLED (83”) we used to sit 12’ from 100” screen, now at 9 1/2’ and it looks bigger - nice trade off.
Anthem MRX 1140 (7.2.4 configuration)
Klipsch Reference Premiere (8060FA x4, 8000F x2, RP-504c, SPL-120 x2)
Panasonic UB9000 for BDs

4 Seatcraft Diamanté seats with SoundShakers (curved row), had two rows of 3, but rarely used more than 4 seats.

Rotated the room so the OLED is on the 17’ wall….Pure Audio Nirvana. Speaker placement in this configuration is optimal for this size of a room and it’s fantastic. OLED is a better display for the ATV vs a projector, plus it added Dolby Vision capability for it and the BD player which a projector can’t do.

Family Room:

ATV 4K
LG C1 (77”)
Bose 900 Soundbar with Sub

No place for surrounds, but the up-firing speakers add some nice effects. We call it Atmos sort of.?

Bedrooms (x3):

ATV 4K
LG C1 (48”)
Bose 300 Soundbar with Sub

Atmos in a bedroom would be a bit much.?

Who needs a movie theater anymore?
