Apple Seeds Second Beta of tvOS 11.2.5 to Developers

[MacRumors]

Apple today seeded the second beta of an upcoming tvOS 11.2.5 update to developers for testing purposes, one week after seeding the first beta and one week after the release of tvOS 11.2.1, an update that introduced a fix for a HomeKit vulnerability.

Designed for the fourth and fifth-generation Apple TV models, the tvOS 11.2.5 developer beta can be downloaded onto the Apple TV via a profile that's installed using Xcode.

We don't yet know what features or changes might be included in the 11.2.5 update, but it likely focuses primarily on bug fixes and performance improvements rather than major outward-facing changes.

There were no outward-facing changes discovered in the first developer beta, but we'll update this post should new features be found in the second beta.

Will we see Dolby atmos support before the year is out??

Will we see 24hz support, finally? It does 24p (23.976hz), but not 24hz.

Hopefully it fixes these cut outs I’m having. Keeps cutting in and out when I go between apps or screens for that matter.

I’m hoping for AirPlay 2 support

It’s available in this seed. Make sure all yor devices are running 11.2.5.

What is the exact 'difference' between 24p and 24hz?

Not all TV material (or movies) are 24p. E.g. the new Netflix show “Dark” is 24hz. You just get frame skips at intervals, which is annoying.

I wonder will any of these updates address the Ethernet issues plaguing the 4K model! Supposedly fixed in 11.1 but still useless.
