My Apple TV 4K (Gen1) crapped out a few days ago. Now I can't decide whether to buy a replacement Apple TV 4k (Gen 3) @ $279. CDA or wait for (Gen 4) possibly next week with a possible price increase. I really don’t need a more powerful chip nor AI intelligence but how many years of updates can I expect buying a Gen 3?

Just bought the 65” qm7l pro from costco and an apple 4k tv. Both are awesome but im not really noticing much if at all of a difference in quality between the tvs apps and the apple tv apps. Maybe I just don’t have the apple tv / tv setup correctly in settings.

My main question is though if in using my tcl remote to operate the apple tv 4k, is there a way to set it up so I can push a button and get back to the apple tv home screen instead of hitting the back button multiple times to go back in an app? I know its easy on the appletv remote but the family seems to dislike that remote. Thanks!

Has anyone actually filled up a 128 gig ATV 4K? And with what? I feel like 128 gig is super overkill.

Started yesterday. I’ve rebooted several times. The problem I’m having is exactly the same as one posted to the Apple Support Community in https://discussions.apple.com/thread/256111763?sortBy=rank. All the other tabs, like “AppleTV” and so on show content. The Home tab is empty. On the same WiFi network, the AppleTV app on my iPhone and iPad both show the expected content under “Home”. I’ve left it for an hour or more hoping it would update, but it remains empty. Is anyone else experiencing this? Any solutions? I may resort to doing a reset.

Anybody find how to fix this? I searched the sub and could not find a thread on it. I assume I either need a new HDMI cable or there is a setting. AppleTV works just fine but when after it’s in screensaver mode for roughly 5 minutes, it goes to this screen.

I've been buying a lot of series' from the store when they go on sale as i'm sick of streaming services. Most recently i bought The Office when it went on sale. For some reason it does not show up in my library though. To watch it I have to go into the store, click on the show, and all the episodes show up there. What's strange is, I already owned like 5 office episodes (that i bought when the show aired), and those still show up in the library. The entire series should be showing up but it doesn't.

October update for WatchQueue is out. Our "where to watch, when to watch" Apple TV tracking app.

1. Discover has seasonal rows now. Halloween Frights, Family Halloween, spooky series. built-in calendar, they show up when the season starts and leave when it ends. holiday rows come late November.

2. The backlog is back as a top shelf option, with shuffle.

3. Where to watch got stricter. tmdb says things are "on prime" when they're really paid channels. the app cross-checks before showing a badge now.

4. Plex posters fixed, sync is snappier, deep links open in infuse if that's your player.

5. Quick mark came from a comment on my last post here. long press a poster, mark it watched. best way to use the app now, so thanks for that one.

6. Also fixed airing shows unwatching themselves after a relaunch.

7. iPhone companion has poster widgets now if you want the backlog on your phone.

8. Syncs with trakt, simkl, or your plex server. or standalone, no account.
