Dark areas get compressed more in general, if your TV is calibrated too bright they'll be more obvious, even on disc content. Also Netflix's 4K streams aren't particularly impressive.

Yes. It’s not obvious, but those are the best settings.

Is there any way to figure out why apps keep crashing? Looking at HGTV and SciGo in particular lately. I’ve already done a restart (I’m already on the current version) and would like to see what’s causing the problems before I reinstall them yet again. Other apps like Netflix and Amazon work perfectly.

Hell I've had apps I've had to nuke once a week because they would keep loving up.

Are we still expecting an ATV update this year? My old ATV won’t do airplay 2 or work with home so an upgrade is in order if it’s not close to upgrade cycle time.

I can't imagine anything they could bring out that would be a major selling point over what's already in the 4K. That thing is basically perfect.

There won't be anything to upgrade in the Apple TV until some new standard for video or audio comes out that it can't handle.

I’m sure they could make it faster so the bloated corpse that is Netflix could find a way to run even worse.

I really wish the ATV was more dominant in this market so they'd be able to push the likes of Netflix and Amazon and Google to not produce the worst apps in the world. I didn't have a single problem with the touchpad remote until Google redesigned all their apps and made them god awful.

I swear to god the Netflix app gets worse every time they touch it. Like the My list and continue watching lists are almost always never in the same place and it’s beyond frustrating. They added that side bar thing and I feel like that’s almost worse I dunno.

If you hated the remote like I did: https://www.amazon.com/Sideclick-Universal-Attachment-Streaming-Players/dp/B01N3PL81R This poo poo changed the game in my house. We used to have to have multiple remotes for various things, now we only need one. I got it a year ago or so, still works without changing battery-- not a single complaint. It also gives the remote a little bit more heft so you don't feel like you're slinging around a baseball card. But most importantly, it attaches to a single side which means when you pick up the ATV remote you never have to flip it around because you picked it up upside down which was ANNOYING.

Matt Zerella posted:I'm having an issue where my denim won't turn my Sony tv on. Otherwise I'd ditch my harmony. The way I got it working was aTV->Sony->Denon. The trick is to use the ARC output (it’s HDMI 4 on my 2015 Bravia) into the ARC input on the Denon. You also have to dig down into the HDMI settings in the Denon menu and allow it to be remotely controlled. I had no problem with the aTV turning on the Sony and selecting the correct input. And then the Sony would turn on the Denon. My problem was, for whatever reason, I could never ever get anything better than 2CH Surround from the TV to the Denon. I have a feeling it’s because my Denon is almost 10 years old. So I gave up and went back to aTV->Denon->Sony with a Harmony Hub.

I did too but I could never get mine to power the TV on, tried fiddling with the auto-wake, etc. And then changing the input on the TV was even more of a nightmare, once I got a PS4, etc. Volume, etc., works just fine on the ATV but power/input no.

I'll just live with it and my wife likes the harmony remote.
