Since the update, the Aerial Screensaver just plays whatever
Before if I was watching an HDR show and paused it, the screensaver played was always HDR also. It seemed to have only downloaded one in HDR, so always played the same one, no matter Dolby Vision or regular HDR, although it matched the media that was paused.

Now, it looks like the screensaver plays at the default setting in the A/V section of settings. Meaning I get a blackout for a second or 2 while the TV adjusts when coming out of the screensaver. Happens going into screensaver also, but obviously, I'm less focused on the TV then.

Not sure there's any way to fix it, short of a new OS release, just wanting to make sure I'm not alone
I've tried switching the settings around (default output, and toggling the match options) to see if it would set itself right, but no luck.

I keep my aTV in 4k SDR, with match rate/range on, since most of what I watch is in SDR.


both this and iOS seem like a next to last beta version, rather than a final release.

I submitted this to apple quite a while ago, they responded this is "working as currently designed"
and had only a few related reports.

if this is happening to you, and it annoys you...
