Apple TV to Support VPN Apps on tvOS 17

[Edgecrusherr]

I will save my praise once I find out if normal VPN use will work.

By normal, do you mean connecting to a site-based VPN to access and replay though that network? Or do you mean a VPN service that spoofs and/or hides your IP?

The latter.

my home router runs the vpn tunnel for the whole house, and I can choose our endpoint country with its app. Been using Apple TV with a vpn for years.

Sounds convenient. Which app/vpn service?

I'm not sure what they use, but I can tell you another router that does that. The FireWalla.

Brume 2 by GLinet + Surfshark. But any of their routers do vpn.

Even better is getting the Blu-ray set. It looks great.

Oddly enough the best picture I found was on YouTube

My brother bought the dvd box set and the Japanese import blu ray and while a definite improvement in picture quality the YouTube Clips are quite remarkable , god knows where they’re sourced from .?

I don’t use betas etc but are any VPN apps ready to go for ATV next week or whenever the OS update is released?

Ah, came to ask if it's out or not - my ATV purchase is pending the availability of ExpressVPN for tvOS 17.

I have IPVanish, Paramount+ in the UK doesn't support HDR, UHD or Atmos but even setting VPN to US it won't let me use it. 👎

I've been waiting for an ExpressVPN for AppleTV for more than 2 years. Hopefully they will release their app for apple tv pretty soon.

Paramount+ is region locked, if you got in the UK, you will need also to pay for the US version, same for HBO.

The beta version of the ExpressVPN TV OS app is out: you need to install Test Flight. It seems pretty flawless so far.

Good to know they're working on an app for Apple TV! I was starting to wonder if it was in their plans or not since they do offer a VPN router too but I'll take this as good news!
