AppleTV 4K won't download new screensavers

[perezr10]

@Edd70 yes I did! My "fix" wasn't a fix at all -- I was looking at the screensaver settings UI "wrong".

In other words, when selecting screensaver themes to have in rotation, whether a theme is set to "Show" or "Hide" was not clear whether that represented the desired state. This is not great design!

So all I had to do was flip the button state, and then it started downloading. That was my problem the entire time. THE ENTIRE TIME!

Thanks for the update. That is useful info😃

BTW, here is a web page that says it contains all the available Apple screensavers. It shows 114 of them. The videos won't play on my PC through Firefox, but they play on my iPad and iPhone. The blog is a bit old - it references tvOS 13 - but it says it fetches all the SSs as new ones are loaded. Check it out.

See if you have this plug in, maybe that is what is needed. I restarted Firefox with all extensions disabled and the site still works so it is not an extension
