(4) - Most of my iTunes purchased TV shows have lost the Chapter Markers too. It's not just the ripped content.

On my iTunes purchased content if I pull down the info box on the top, the chapters are listed along the bottom. They are in image format, not listed by name, although the name appears when you select one of them. I was doing it all weekend long as I got a new TV and was tweaking picture and sound settings, so I would pop into specific chapters in movies to look at bright vs dark, vs action, etc etc.

Not sure if its an Apple TV issue or Netflix, but streaming is consistently interrupted with a server error. This problem didn't exist until I switched out my Apple TV (3G) to the new 32GB Apple TV.

I've noticed that happening a bit over the last couple days, but not so much for the first few days of ownership on the new ATV. I think it is a Netflix thing. I've heard Netflix has different hosts for different devices so it isn't uncommon for one platform (ATV4 vs everything else for instance) to have server issues while other platforms don't. An example is some previous year's Christmas holidays where Apple TVs would have issues but playstations/Roku/Smart TV seemed trouble free.

I subscribe to Apple Music so maybe that is why I don't see an option to purchase music on my ATV4 like I used to do on my ATV3?
 
You said the update does nothing and is pointless, but what you really mean is: The update does nothing to solve YOUR problem.

You can't speak for everyone when you say it does nothing, because you don't know if others' issues have been fixed by the update ...and according to at least one member, their problem has been fixed since updating.

It's not My\Apple's fault you can't express yourself too well.
Lol don't post in macrumors to sound like my parents...
 
Guys it was reported on page 8 what the update does, it's a fix for Apple Music subscribers via Telstra, given how small the update is I would find it hard to imagine that there are other fixes in there.

Wait for 9.1 for a more thorough set of fixes
 
sounds more like a bandwidth issue. I don't have this problem unless my local network is really saturated or wifi connection is horrible.

I have this problem. I had no issues on Apple TV 2. I upgraded both of mine to a 64GB and a 32GB. It seems to happen on specific movies. Happens on Interstellar and Inside Out the most. Interstellar was ripped with Make MKV and encoded with handbrake on the Apple TV 3 profile. Inside Out was purchased from iTunes. I had no issues on the 2 Apple TV 2's or my 1 Apple TV 3 that I kept and I still don't have an issue with it and it sits the furthest from router. I have tried cabled and wired with the same results. If I stream Inside Out from my purchased content it doesn't pause. I've deleted and re-downloaded also and it still happens. It's been driving me nuts trying to figure out what is causing it.
 
I've seen this issue as well, and can confirm two things:
1) It isn't a bandwidth issue. It is consistent with the same content, over ethernet with nothing else on the network. Flip to a different file which is MORE bandwidth intensive (10+Mbps vs 5Mbps) and no buffering issues.
2) It happens with some content and not others. My rips are seemingly fine, but an iTunes video I just downloaded (Inside Out) using the redemption code reproduces it very consistently. But it very much a case where a file that repros the issue will always repro the issue. A file that doesn't, won't. So it has to do with the file.
3) And actually, for me, the only files with issues have iTunes Extras in the "modern" format (some sort of embedding or linking). Even more annoying/perplexing.

It's as if there's something with the buffering itself that in certain situations causes it to let the buffer empty over the course of a couple minutes, while other files will buffer properly. It's annoying as hell, and I actually dropped back to the ATV3 for now since it doesn't have this issue with the same files.

The movie have the biggest issue with is Inside Out. My kids can barely watch it anymore. Thankfully I still have an Apple TV 3 that they can still watch it on. I didn't notice it as much before 9.0.1 so I just assumed it was my network. The last couple days I've been trying figure it out and can't find much on the net so I came back here to read all the posts. Glad I'm not the only one. I was about to go buy a new AirPort Extreme to test with...
 
A new version of the app sounds nice, but I am not sure that's exactly a true statement. I don't see any reason why they can't make ATV4 (tvOS) compatible with the current app. They should be able to release a fix from either side.

HUH??? And you know this how? Are you a programmer? Are you an Apple programmer? Are you involved in programming the tvOS? If not, then how can you intelligently and logically make such a statement. Where do these statement come from?

Rumor has it that the remote app now works with the latest tvOS update (no remote app update), can you confirm this for me Mr. SlipperySlop? If so, where you d your statements come from?
 
You're looking for the TVos 9.1 thread, here: Apple Releases tvOS 9.1 for Fourth-Generation Apple TV


I know what I am looking for, thanks. I specifically want to know if 9.1 fixes the "remote app" issue. The reason I replied in this app, was specifically to slipperyslop who claimed I couldn't intelligently state that it could be fixed in a tvOS update, that it had to be done with an app update in this thread.
