I haven't done this in a long time but if you have a Mac you may be able to connect to the computer and use Apple Configurator to manually install the latest tvOS. do so at your own peril of course. I’ll maybe give that a shot eventually if it doesn’t pickup the update. The only app that won’t load is paramount + but everything else seems to work just fine.

Cold on a Cob posted:This may sound ridiculous and is definitely a long shot, but I had this issue once and it turned out my TV's actual remote was stuck on. I actually thought my AppleTV or the tv itself were broken because I noticed the issue went away when I covered the IR receiver on the TV... but then I tried pulling the battery out of my TV remote and the issue went away. I did not try this but thank you for the suggestion anyway! My TV remote battery is actually low but I have just ignored it since I wasn’t using it. Anyway I unscientifically reset my TV and Apple TV as well as updated it from 17.1 to 17.2 all at the same time. One of those things fixed it.

LPT: remove channels you don’t subscribe to anymore from the TV app. You would think deleting that channel’s app would do this but nope. You have to go to Settings > Apps > TV > Connect to TV section and then set the channels to Off. This should theoretically improve the suggestions to only include stuff you subscribe to, although practically it’s still 75% Apple TV+.

Anyone actually like the OS update? Not sure it’s helped anything for me, the new lady hand bar contains some random poo poo like MLS soccer that I’ve never once watched. Apart from anything else, it hasn’t fixed the recent problem for me of shows I’ve watched in full on the Apple TV (both appletv+ & 3rd party) remaining in my up next list, shown as partially watched. I think there’s also an extra step to switch profiles.

The TV app was redesigned and the navigation menu moved from the top to the left side. https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2023/12/redesigned-apple-tv-app-elevates-the-viewing-experience/ I like it a lot. I use the sports section to direct me to wherever the NFL games are, and if you have any streaming subs they pop up on the bar there as well.

Was not expecting my new Apple tv 4k with Ethernet™ to display EVERYTHING in Dolby Vision... Watching Dragon Ball on Crunchyroll and the picture mode says Dolby Vision [Bright], when I'm pretty sure neither the app nor the series masters anything in DV.

I think I remember some default setting to "match content to the menus" where it'll convert it to fake HDR/DV so that when switching between menus and content your screen doesn't flicker while changing modes. You can turn it off if you want but I'm not sure it actually hurts anything unless you're a calibrated screen kinda guy.

I hate that if you use Dolby Vision any time you view any content, there's a 3-5 second delay before the content appears because, I guess, it's flipping on and off the "Dolby Vision" or the "HDR" or whatever the gently caress this nerd poo poo is doing.

We literally just described a setting (that’s on by default) that fixes that issue regardless of what TV you have.

Yeah but if you do that, you're disabling Dolby Vision/HDR-- I'm saying the implementation of those seems to cause a ruckus. Saying not to use it is like saying "if you're having color issues simply disable color." The problem is that the implementation, maybe it's sourced at the ATV or maybe at the TV level, doesn't use the same thing for menus, etc., as it does for content. You'd think when you enable Dolby Vision, it doesn't need to change the signal between the menu and the content but it does! At least for me!

I thought the solution forces the menus into HDR not the other way around but maybe I’m misremembering or it doesn’t play well with DV.

4k sdr with content matching is the best way to do it, with the only caveat being that your screen will temporarily go black every time it switches content type. i don't remember whether the latest atv has qms or whatever the hdmi 2.1 feature that's supposed to do it instantaneously is

I have mine to output 4K SDR. Then you enable match dynamic range and it will switch to Dolby vision and HDR when the content supports it.

I use 4K Dolby Vision at all times and when it takes a couple seconds to switch... whatever. But I now use an HD Fury Arcana (I need an eARC port for my Sonos Arc to output Atmos) that outputs Dolby Vision all the time regardless of whether the content is or isn't DV/HDR, so my TV never switches. But let me tell you, that setup causes CEC to crash and loving burn. It's SO goddamn annoying.

I use homepods as audio and I'm going to set up my ATV as an eARC setup today. Supposedly I can use the ATV/homepod this way but I have a feeling it's going to be ever so slightly hosed

Honestly I have a very simple system, just a Sony TV, an Apple TV, and a Sonos sound bar. Feel like it should “just work” a bit more.

qirex posted:I thought HDFury stuff played nice with CEC, it should, given the pricing. Yeah, it should. I think it's also a function of my Bravia X900F TV. The CEC on that is loving weird. There's a specific section in the Arcana manual for Bravia TVs, but it can be kind of hard to follow since it definitely looks like it got ran through google translate. Also, the steps don't solve the issues

Really wish Apple could do a better job realizing that Paramount+ as an Apple TV channel and Paramount+ as a service are the same thing. Instead of constantly trying to sell me a service I already have.

Instead of constantly trying to sell me a service I already have. It’s not the same to Apple, they’re not getting a cut if you subscribe separately. But yes, that and the whole “constantly shilling Apple TV+ shows I will never watch” thing are why it will never be the true hub app it was supposed to be.

It will never be a true hub app since Netflix and plex aren’t there. Apple TV plus is fine because I’m properly subbed to Apple one family plan.

Mister Facetious posted:What's wrong with that though Watch your TV however makes you happy, but it's "wrong" because the filmmakers didn't intend for or grade the content to be in HDR. They graded it for SDR and the AppleTV is taking a best guess as to how to convert it to HDR. You may as well just set your TV to "Vivid" mode

Anyone have issues with their ATV Remotes re: CEC use? My ATV 4K (2nd Gen) remotes sometime stop working for volume on both my C1 and C9. Googling has shown me that home button and up button being held sometimes resets it but its been 50/50 for me.
