    Airplay audio doesnt work, but display mirroring does?

    I use Airplay to stream music to my appletv, but often enough audio cuts out completely and in the worst times, trying to airplay audio gets "cannot connect to AppleTV" error messages. Rebooting devices doesn't help. At the same time, display sharing to AppleTV via AirPlay (which also sets audio...

    Remove an Apple TV from Remote in Control Center?

    I did a factory reset on an older Apple TV, but it still shows up in the drop-down of Apple TVs from “Choose a TV” in the remote function in Control Center. Is there a way to remove this?

    New Apple TV Remote Mute Button…

    Who asked for this stupid mute button… and right in the same place where you’ve been trained to press play/pause all these years… so annoying… if I wanted the sound to stop I’d hit pause… I can think of far more useful buttons if they were gonna add stuff….

    Siri Remotes stuck sending IR volume down commands

    Two of the (latest-gel) Siri remotes in my house have suddenly started sending continuous IR volume down commands to my receivers and TVs. ATV says the remote firmware is version 0x0061. Never had this before. Work around is to point the remotes away from the TV so TV can't see IR commands...

    Show Me on Apple TV Settings

    My profile under Home settings of the Home app: In the ”Show Me on Apple TV” settings, show me is disabled for my Apple TV even though I am signed in as the primary and only account. Given that, should this not be automatically enabled? Is this a bug?

    Apple TV + HomePod Mini Stereo Pair - one one speaker working

    Maybe it’s just buggy but I’ve spent some frustrating time on it and have come up with nothing. First, I updated everything to xOS 15. I then paired my HomePod minis and AirPlay works fine to listen to music from my Mac, iPad, and iPhone. They all work great. Apple TV works great, too, when I...

    Is GPU acceleration possible on the original Apple TV?

    I know that the first generation Apple TV runs a modified version of Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger, and it’s possible to get regular Tiger and even Leopard running as well. However, those versions run like crap due to a lack of graphics acceleration via the built-in Nvidia GeForce Go 7300 GPU. I think...

    Questions about Apple TV 3rd gen

    Im thinking about switching from firetv stick to Apple TV 3rd generation (since that’s the only one I can afford). So I just want to know does this Apple TV Device have a watch history or recently watched row? (Like firetv) and does it have a Bluetooth option to connect my Bluetooth headphones?

    Possible to View All of My “Added” Content?

    I can “add” movies and shows in the Apple TV app so that they show up in “app next”, but is it possible to view a list of all of this added content without clearing all of my play history?

    Apple One Discount on Apple One with new Mac?

    Apple has sent me a message on my phone suggesting I should upgrade to Apple One - which I'm thinking about doing as the monthly cost wouldn't be much more than I'm already paying for Apple Music etc. Just started paying for Apple TV after my last free year ran out from what came with my iPhone...

    Apple TV 4K (2021) Weird visual artifacts

    Ever since upgrading from the Apple TV HD to the Apple TV 4K released this year, I've noticed that most content I watch, regardless of streaming platform, has frequent visual artifacts. It seems to happen in areas where there is motion and with finely-detailed patterns, which leads me to believe...

    Laggy screen mirroring on Apple TV 4K Gen 2

    My Apple TV 4K Gen 2 is unusable for screen mirroring from multiple iPhones. The phone’s screen appears but runs at about ~1fps. It’s incredibly choppy and laggy, not usable for videos or even scrolling. Audio works fine. Mirroring the same phone to an ATV 4K Gen 1 in another room works...

    “Up Next” not working reliably

    I have two Apple TVs (one brand new, the other the previous generation 4K). I cannot figure out why sometimes the “Up Next” row just doesn’t update. For example, last night I started watching a movie in Disney+, and it appeared in “Up Next” on both devices. Then today, I’ve watched other items...

    Hello everyone. I always liked to consume content in high quality, but not having a TV, I decided to invest in a stream-box after learning that Amazon Prime Video and Apple TV don't provide 4K SDR/HDR playback in the browser or within the app (Like in the case of Apple TV), and I decided to go...
