I keep denying the newest update thinking a jailbreak is going to come soon. Never had a JB'ed ATV but can see the appeal. I understand it's very hard for the current teams to crack, but I bet if a contest was released it would be cracked in a day! Wish I had the money to put up for it, haha.

Akuma posted:If you have an iPad you might not need a jailbreak (don't assume one is just around the corner, either - there may never be one) - just buy AirVideo on the iPad, then stream your MKVs from your computer, through your iPad, to the AppleTV. The image isn't cropped, it's just like playing something from within the aTV interface.

HolySwissCheese posted:Has Apple fixed or is there a known fix for the iOS Remote.app no longer connecting to Apple TVs? They updated the iOS app in around March, and it totally broke it. The only solution was to fish the old version out of your trash and downgrade, but I absent-mindedly upgraded again a few weeks ago, and it seems to be totally broken still.

I have a VPN set up to watch American Netflix on my iPad. Works perfectly. AirPlay doesn't work (only does audio) but mirroring will. Problem is that it doesn't fit my screen - black bars. I use DisplayOut which is a JB app, but it still doesn't fit the screen. I can stretch it to fit but then it doesn't look as good. Any help here to make it full screen? I'm so close!!

Legdiian posted:This may be a dumb question, but if I go to Walmart and buy a DVD out of the $5 bin, what is the official "Apple way" to get that media on my Apple TV? Disc media blows. We had it with tapes, then laser discs, then DVD's, BR's will be next, etc. At least if you get it digitally it'll still work when the new hotness comes around.

Bojanglesworth posted:Yeah, I worked at the Apple store for two years. I have personally given hundreds of customers a huge hassle over replacing the headphones that came with every iPhone, at the direction of the store manager. I assure you that even if something costs a nickel it could be a hassle.

Tim Cook said himself that TV is the one thing no one has invented on in a really long time and they are quite seriously looking into it.

Suqit posted:I've been using remote on two iphones with my 3rd generation AppleTV for around a year now. Starting a few days ago neither phone will recognize the AppleTV. I've force quit the application, deleted and reinstalled, reset the AppleTV, setup the AppleTV as new, and reset the router, all to no avail. Anyone have any ideas? Or is this take it back to the Apple Store? Don't you have to do something in the settings menu on the atv under remote? E: or home sharing?

To be fair, I'd imagine literally 1% of the aTV population does this anyways.

Buy a $19 remote and don't have the Apple TV hidden so it has line of sight, or stop complaining cuz you are a whiner. Get the Android equivalent judging by how much you hate Apple.

Acrolos posted:No, I'm complaining that I can't install an old version of the app that would work on my device (it did exist, from looking around online) . I can do that on an Android device, so that's the reason for my frustration. Considering you're using another device to control the Apple TV anyways, why not just buy the ~~~remote~~~ and use that? The ATV is small and inconspicuous enough to have out instead of hidden away too.

ZeeBoi posted:I'm confused why my receiver isn't doing surround sound when I try to watch content that has 5.1 audio on my Apple TV. I mainly have this problem with Netflix, and I know my receiver can do dolby digital plus just fine because it works when I use Netflix on the PS3. Funny I've had very similar issues. Try this out Rent an iTunes movie, don't do a preview, they don't do DD I then had DD. Netflix just doesn't give DD even though it should. Two customer calls later confirmed it's a bug on their end. I have some video files that are DD on my computer. Both Plex and Air Video Hd will do DD. This is Apple TV 3 using optical audio cable into my receiver. I was testing with Netflix and was pulling my hair out until trying an iTunes rental then realizing it's Netflix.

P0PCULTUREREFERENCE posted:FYI for you guys having trouble with 5.1: apparently the last Apple TV update broke something to do with Dolby (possibly only in the 3rd party apps?). I was so annoyed by 5.1 not making it to my receiver (a Denon E300, funnily enough) that I called Netflix to ask why it wasn't working - 5.1 support for the Apple TV is advertised on their site, after all. The Netflix rep that I got said it was a known problem and that they're working on a fix for it. The rep didn't know at specifics, or if the fix would be Netflix or Apples. 5.1 works on Air video and Plex. I have been using them and no issues. Cant wait for Netflix to be fixed.

Mahoning posted:Has anyone had the problem with the message "An error occurred while loading this content. Please try again later." popping up all the time? Doesn't matter what I'm watching, could be Netflix, could be HBOGO, could be WatchESPN. I'll get the message while in the middle of watching something. If I don't reset the ATV, I'll get the message again after a few minutes, but if I do reset, it might wait until the next day to do it. Either way, its pretty much a daily occurrence now. All the time. Restarting fixes it for me too. Haven't done a factory restore because I am lazy. It's super annoying.
