Keyser_Soze posted:shows that paid them, to blow up the main screen..... whatever It's been like this since like tvOS 9 or something. You hover on an app in the top bar and it shows a larger image of that app's logo or shows that are available to watch or whatever. Now some of them are animated. It's a tiny change. Have you even updated yet?

I'm specifically referring to the TV app as pointed out in previous posts and the ones referring to "Bob and Abishola" . If you use the TV app to manage content it's a huge downgrade and obnoxious. Now you have to press the TV app to see what you've been watching/up next. also, I move all the stupid itunes tv shows/movies crap to the bottom.

The only legitimate complaint you have is that they removed the Up Next feature from the preview. Everything else you've done is just whining about things that either aren't there or have always been there.

An actual, if subjective, problem with tvOS 13 is that it now reports the device’s HDMI name as the actual given name of your device (eg, “John Appleseed’s Apple TV”) instead of just “Apple TV” and now I need to actually set an override on my receiver to keep the name tidily in the display panel. It absolutely sucks. Whole OS is ruined for me now. I am very normal.

I wish it would be completely broken out of the box, rather than giving people false hope.

It's weird. CEC is one of the things I've long been very impressed with specifically on Apple TV. It's been flawless, out of the box, from day one. It actually Just Worked. It's the only device I own that properly interacts with my TV, receiver, and other devices, both ways. It's not like the Nintendo Switch, which can turn everything on but not off, and can be turned off by the TV but can't turn the TV off. The ATV's never given me one CEC problem. I guess I shouldn't be surprised others weren't so lucky.

Think it’s less to do with Apple, and rather the fact that the seamless cross compatibility goes out the window if x manufacture doesn’t push updates or fully functional CEC I’d rather have it broken than not at all, but it is a bit of a marketing scheme imo -edit also a lot of companies give it their own buzzword name and you have to manually enable for x HDMI slot it under a weird hidden submenu Nostalgia4Dogges fucked around with this message at 00:07 on Sep 26, 2019 |

CEC works almost 100% of the time to turn on my Apple TV/TV/receiver, but only about 30% of the time does my TV (Samsung) actually detect the receiver for audio output. I just went to back to using an optical cable.

Unfortunately optical ports are seemingly all but obsolete in new hardware outside of PC use

My only problem with CEC is that if I turn off my PS4, it likes to turn on my AppleTV.

CEC rules until you cat steps on your Apple Remote in the middle of the night and you're blinded by the 100% brightness screen.

I really don’t like the remote much, had to add a silicone case. Plus I—mostly pets—drop it a lot. PS4 is extremely fucky. Oh poo poo accidentally switched to that input ok now my PS4 is kicking on I’ll go back to my Apple TV while I wait for it to boot, then the PS4 takes source control again

It seems like the main touchpad for the ATV remote doesn't turn everything on anymore, I gotta hit the menu or tv screen button to turn it on, which is a big improvement imo. I keep the remote in a pouch hanging on the side of the couch and if the cat bumped the pouch before it would turn everything on.

I’d buy a 4K for Arcade to replace my 4th gen but I just can’t shake this fear/hope that they release a new model this year...

Feenix posted:I’d buy a 4K for Arcade to replace my 4th gen but I just can’t shake this fear/hope that they release a new model this year... Well you'll know in about a month. Apple sometimes has a mid/late-October event and since Apple TV+ is launching Nov.1, you would think that would be the time they would announce a new Apple TV model. Although, I'm not sure what else they could really add to it. I'd kill for a TV tuner in it but I realize that if they were gonna do that they'd have done it years ago. Other than that, I guess they could just do a spec bump with a new processor and keep everything else mostly the same.

Spec bump call it a pro. Wipe out the 4th gen. I’ll bite now that it’s a gaming machine.

Thwomp posted:Add an always-on mic so it can also act as a speaker-less HomePod. After using Amazon’s Cube this summer, the only real advantage it had over AppleTV was the Alexa voice control. While menu navigation will always be a bitch with voice controls, I really like telling Alexa to turn TV on/off, switch inputs, or change channels on my TV. If they don’t have true Siri integration in the next AppleTV it will be a mistake.

I'm digging Steamlink.app with my PS4 controller, seems like a nice replacement for a Steamlink. This might be a better question for the Steam thread, I've always preferred xbox360 controllers but they won't work with AppleTV. Xbox One controllers seem to have a lot of complaints about build quality and I'm curious if that's really the case or just vocal one-stars on Amazon. My 360 controller I use(d) with my PC and Steamlink is still going strong after over 7 years of use, but I obviously can't use it with the AppleTV.

360 controllers were still using a proprietary communications format I think right? Where as PS4 and the newer XBONE ones all use Bluetooth.

When I AirPlay YouTube/etc videos from my fully updated iPad Pro to the Apple TV it pops up the title in the corner but never pushes the video. Only the audio. Any ideas?

I can’t find the option to sync icon layouts between ATV devices in the same house anymore. Maybe I had too many beers tonight, but I swear there was an option to keep things lined up. Like, if I moved/installed an app on one ATV, it would mirror it on any others.
