No longer seeing year playing movies

[jwolf6589]

Apple made a change in the latest update and not for the better. I can no longer see the year the movie was made when I play a movie. How lame.

Ok maybe I’m missing something here, but why would anyone need to see the year while playing?

Anyhow regardless of that I’m not sure what you’re meaning as I see a date upon swipe down

It also shows the year at startup and upon tapping the trackpad.

I like it. Especially when one wants to know this. It’s a feature that only TVOS had….

Nope not since latest TVOS update.

Nope not since latest TVOS update.

Then maybe try a restart or force closing the apps down, as you can see with what I’ve posted above there’s certainly no issues here with the latest tvOS update.

No issues here either.

It wouldn't surprise me if it depends on whether you are playing the movie from the TV app or the iTunes purchased app. There is a massive disconnect between the two.

I’ve checked both and see no difference on either of my ATV4K 1st & 3rd Gens.

The issue may be my account as I have a billing problem. I did a reboot and quit the TV app to no resolve. Until apple corrects the billing problem I will continue to have the issue.

Interesting. Must check mine out. There used to be a huge difference between the two with regard to extra information on the actual film that was playing. Maybe I am wrong, and they have finally bought the two together. I do hope so...
