I use my home theatre / Apple TV to stream video, to listen to music from my iTunes, and to listen to Podcasts.
Recently it seems the Apple TV app is slow / wonky to refresh pods.
All my "podcast management" -- like subscribing -- is done on my Mac and the Mac's podcast app. The Apple TV Podcast app is just a dumm player.
Finally this morning I remembered to take note of the issue
Today I turned on and rebooted my Apple TV and went to the podcast app.
There were no new podcasts on the Apple TV. I did a few things around the apartment then sat down at my computer. I didn't force refresh feeds or anything and the Mac's Apple Podcast app showed 11 (eleven) podcast new "Today."
So I grabbed my camera, went to my Home theatre / Apple TV app and now 1 (one) podcast shows.
These two images are within a minute of each other. Sure some of the podcasts are obscure but others are pretty mainstream -- NYT, FT, Vox Media, ....
I'm sure that through the course of the day the Apple TV app will catch up, still something is strange and it is a pain in the ass to get your "morning briefing" at noon.
And there doesn't seem to be a pattern -- today's "News Brief" might be slow to show on the Apple TV but tomorrow it will be there at 5:30 am.
I use Apple Podcast on my Mac and Apple Podcast on my Apple TV -- whatever feeds I get come from / through / because of / ... Apple -- but one is "up to date" and the other takes hours.
The podcast app is the one built in to my tvOS -- Apple TV 4th gen 1080p 32 GB, tvOS 16.6
On my MAC again the built in Apple app -- macOS 12.6.7, Apple's app: Podcasts 1.1.0
Any thoughts?
Thanks
