Thanks for some good tips. I’ve been a long term user of the Apple TV, back from the original black box with silver, two button remote and I’ve owned at least one of every release since then. I didn’t know about the match content function. Hopefully this will resolve an occasional issue where content displays with very low contrast. My tip is actually an app pick. I’ve found the Plex Media Server very powerful. I can stream copies of my own media from a always on media PC, wirelessly to every tv in the house. Highly recommended!

Another tip to go along with the voice control you talked about. You can also use the exact same commands hands-free, if you have another nearby Apple device like an iPad or HomePod or Apple Watch. I use this all the time when I want to get up to go to the other room and I just call out to Siri to pause the TV. The HomePod is perfect for this because it's equipped with long range beam-forming microphones; and it works from any HomePod in the house regardless of whether it's paired to the Apple TV for sound output or not. Some of the things you can say is: Hey Siri: Turn the Apple TV Off (Puts it to sleep) Pause the TV Resume playing on the TV Go back 45 seconds What did they say? Skip 5 Minutes All of that without ever having to touch the remote.

Love love love this video- Wanted to mention a super-duper little tip for your next audio specialty video. Many of us who can't or dont want to add soundbars to our TVs Systems can use the Apple TV to do something amazing with our Sonos speakers( that even the Sonos folks don"t seem to know!!). With your I pad or Iphone through the audio / video tab in the settings screen of your Apple TV play the TV through our sonos systems as each amplifire will appear as a wifi option. Additionally these options can be placed into the home app on your IOS device and the volumes etc for each amp/location can be controlled by your IOS device!!! Its an awesome benefit that not many seems to know about!!! Happy holidays!!!

Hi Caleb - thanks for another gear video. I standardized on using Apple TV as my streamer across all my TVs. But I always struggle with bypassing or turning off smart TV features. My goal is to only turn on (or automatically wake up) my TV and never see any smart TV or TV OS interface. I am interested in your recommendation what TVs have the cleanest way to bypass their TV OS interface and go straight to Apple TV or AVR content. I appreciate your opinion and recommendations - cheers!

@benjamindepaz8429 Жыл бұрын

Here's a tip to go along with what you were talking about with the Match Dynamic Range. So having it match the dynamic range and frame rate, as you showed are important. But you can add to it by going into the main TV resolution settings and changing the Apple TV to SDR. Even though you change it to SDR, because of the Match Dynamic Range setting, when playing something in HDR it will switch back. The benefit to this is to ensure that SDR is ALWAYS shown as SDR and that it never tries to tone-map the SDR to HDR. But even assuming the Match Dynamic Range setting truly does always keep the content in SDR when it's non-HDR, there's one place where it will NEVER change it: the Home Screen. The Home Screen will always try to show in HDR if HDR is selected. This has the result of making the Home Screen look a little washed out; not as bright or well defined. This may not be a big deal on TVs where the screen is extremely bright (like a QLED) - but it's really bad on a lower cost TV. Many TVs under $1,000 have panels that are not capable of truly reaching the minimum brightness needed for HDR (regardless of whether they show the HDR logo on the box and the input allows it). And so for TVs that can't go past 500 Nits of brightness, trying to browse through the Apple TV Home Screen in HDR mode can be very eye straining as it's so dim and washed out. But by changing the resolution setting to SDR, and then enabling Match Dynamic Range, the home screen will have full 4:4:4 color and look much brighter and easier to see.

Most welcoming spec was the bluetooh inclusion for me. Because I hate typing with the remote. So when I buy a model first thing I do the bluetooth pairing with a keyboard then do the all other settings. For this last one, I did the same. Then I went using keyboard for search purposes. But a bad surprise happened with KZfaq. I cannot type into the search section with bluetooth keyboard. Which is the most important place to use the keyboard for me. Hope it will be fixed.

Hey Brendan, Caleb here. It may be possible, but I haven't tested it. You can get Spatial Audio from Apple Music on the XM4 using an iPhone by going to Settings>Music>Dolby Atmos>Always on. You can choose a similar setting in TVOS, but I haven't tested it with various apps to see if Spatial Audio works that way with a third-party headphones like the XM4 or XM5. I will test it and do what I can to come back to comment.

I turned on Chroma 4:2:2. Not mentioned in your tips, but forgot about that when upgraded to the new ATV.

I recently bought Airpods 3rd Gen. I used to have a home theater system with multiple speakers, in terms of audio that was better than actually being in the best seat in a theater or at the Super Bowl for example. The newer Airpods are better than that particularly because each person has their own personal home theater system, with the exception that with a home theater system you can actually feel the difference, like it's live versus a recording. I'm currently sitting at home waiting for delivery of my 2022 Apple TV unit as a Christmas present, and educating myself so that when my wife gets home I'll have it all set up. But now watching this I'm thinking maybe it's better if I just connect it and let her set up her own thing because we have a unique situation. I'm American, native English speaker; my wife is Japanese, native Japanese speaker. Both of us use iPhone and iPad. Until now we've been using an old Playstation, though mostly her. If only one can log in with global settings where it's that one person's language and such, I rather it be her. But ideally I want all our stuff separated by login by language, country, content, and so forth.

You can add multiple users. Simply press and hold the TV button to add new users and switch in between them seamlessly. I’m not sure if you can set different languages for each user but it’s worth a try ;)

@@carstenehlers1864 : Thanks! Hopefully useful to others: I use a VPN on my personal devices while I'm in Japan so I can get my streaming content, and all other location targeted stuff wherever I may be, BUT the Apple TV thingamajig not only is a shared device BUT it also can't have a VPN, BUT I can do mirroring. So if I want to see my personal content on the larger screen through the Apple TV, I just login to it as myself and mirror that content from the iPad.

I currently have it set to 4k Dolby Vision Match Off and frame rate Off. Looks great on the Sony A80L 77inch

When are you dropping the video for the audio. This was very informative and very helpful. Can you do the audio one now

I was hoping you might highlight the benefits of the new 2022 AppleTV 4k with setting up and running HimeKit, which may be a separate video on your channel perhaps? Kind thanks

You can also stream from a NAS. As a weird caveat, I’ve found you cannot stream Apple content downloaded and saved, it only seems to work with the universal formats like .mp4. To play Apple content, it must be streamed through a phone or laptop then airplayed back to the AppleTV. I’ve been led to understand this has to do with DRM (not claiming it’s true, just what I keep hearing). The online community has some “fixes” for this but I’ve found most of them problematic and/or unusable.

I just gave away my 2021 Apple TV and purchased the 2022 and somehow I am regretting it. You tube video at the beginning goes to black like 2 or 3 times. Any advice please? It’s driving me crazy. I am about to go buy me the 2021. Only does it when I set up video to HDR10+ which was the only reason a bought the 2022. Let me know if I need to change something on my set up. Thank you

I'd be interested in seeing tv app performance to see which tv has the best in-tv app performance when streaming and best Ethernet performance.

@Barbarapape Жыл бұрын

Excellent information, having just bought the new version with ethernet i now know how to get more out of it. My only frustration is the requirement to use an ipad or iphone for some of the featutres. I don't own either, and have no desire to buy into Apples system of making older phones obsolete. A stunning box that blows Amazons new cube out of the water.
