Hi,
got my unit today (A2169), I was very eager for the new ATV 4K 2021 since I've been using HDMI 2.1 features since 2020 with LG CX TVs and PC GPUs.
All devices' firmwares are up-to-date, however the ATV GUI only shows HDMI output settings within HDMI 2.0 limitations, these are in (its best case) 2160p/60 Hz/4:2:2/HDR on.
Have tested multiple 48 Gbit/s-capable HDMI 2.1 cables that work fine with PCs and the same LG CX TV with 2160p/120 Hz/Full-range RGB/10 bpc color/HDR on, the ATV also says after its little tests that the used cable is "of good quality" (no sh*t, Sherlock!).
I know that refresh rates above 60 Hz are currently not supported but I was hoping for at least 2160p/60 Hz/Full-range RGB/10 bpc color/HDR on.
I want these features not for third-party content consumption but my own videos and photos that on a strictly technological note exceed the stuff that is streaming down the river of mediocrity.
Can other users confirm this? Am highly disappointed by this. Hope I'm only experiencing a somehow fixable handshake bug
