Fantastic Craig I also like screen mirroring my favorite movies or calls to a friends tv.

[@thanehtike]

TIP: I use my old 3rd Gen Apple TV as an Apple Music AirPlay device. It's hooked up via toslink to my integrated amp outputting to proper floor standing speakers.

[@CraigsTechTalk]

That is a great tip. Thats right the old ones supported toslink. Thanks for sharing.

[@hey-patrick]

Can you control the volume through the Siri remote?

[@thanehtike]

@@hey-patrick I control the volume from my iPhone, iPad, Mac. I don't have a Siri remote paired to the Apple TV 3 but if I did I would imagine volume control would be possible.

[@jclaybaugh2]

If you are worried about “bit perfect” audio, the Apple TV will resample 44.1khz streams to 48k. 99% of people won’t care!

[@MajiJaxVT]

Mine comes today, looking forward to it! Switching to the Apple ecosystem in general from years of Windows and Android problems. So far it's been way nicer.

[@MajiJaxVT]

@@WizzRacing Yeah I have an iphone, moved my wife to one as well, got an AppleTV. They all just work, it’s a nice change.

[@BridgetReadsandReads]

We LOVE Ted Lasso at our house. Eagerly awaiting season 2.

[@teesong6801]

Just hooked up my Apple TV and thanks to your video it made things easy! My wife and I watched 10 episodes of Ted Lasso!

[@CraigsTechTalk]

Thank you very much. Glad to hear your setup went well. That great you jumped into Ted Lasso. Such a great show. Thanks for watching and your comment.

[@jedwardoo]

Also watch Mythic Quest in Apple TV+. I’m also starting to watch, Little Voice, seems intriguing as a series

[@AceSantos-ji4hm]

how do i get the smart home when i push the home screen cuz it’s not popping up

[@DanteYewToob]

Anyone know how to turn a TV on or off with the 4K remote? It only has a few buttons… Is it a double click or multi press of some kind?

[@CraigsTechTalk]

The latest Apple TV remote has a power button. It uses CEC to turn on and off devices.

[@BrianMegilligan]

The "miss" with the apple account set up thing is that there isn't a way to map the Apple TV accounts with the individual app accounts (like Netflix, Amazon, KZbin, etc). It would be nice if by connecting to my Apple TV account, somehow that info could be passed to those apps so when I launch them they would know who is logged in.

[@iancorzine]

Awesome, clear video! Great job Craig!

[@daviddanielle7308]

Great tips Craig. Best tip was Ted Lasso.....what a great show!

[@sekaf4125]

THANK YOU!!! I’m an apple tech nut. Didn’t know about the “what did they say”. Amazing. Thank you

[@larrybrown1984]

I don’t have Apple TV (yet). If my Firestick keeps being stupid, I might be! Some great features. I like the colour balance and the ‘what did they say?’ Features. Will this pair with my Studio speakers?

Great tips Craig. Love the shortcut switching users on the ATV. Good stuff! And yes…most importantly, watch Tes Lasso! 👍🏻

Help.I’m thinking of buying one from Amazon. What’s the difference and What’s better 4K or HD? And different between 32 GB or 64 GB

[@CraigsTechTalk]

I have never bought anything above 32gb. Apparently it is for more apps and on board storage. Never have had an issue in 10 years.

[@ArinatorGrande]

[@marcoarispoli]

Can I use the Apple TV to play all the movies in MKV / MPEG format that sit on my NAS ?

[@davidbrown3309]

Of all the wonderful things the new remote can do, I don’t think there is a way to tell it how to turn on/off my non-CEC television. Would have been a nice addition to “Learn remote”.

[@christinerakes7248]

What is name of app to use?

[@eddiec4536]

Does the Apple TV allow 2 sets of headphones to hook up with Bluetooth?

[@Bewefau]

How do i save my movies on my hard drive of the apple tv ? It use to let me when I first got my 4 but its not letting me anymore that's why i got the 64g version to save my fav movies on the tv it self.

[@jamesbennett5421]

Love the “what did they say” feature, excellent!

[@CraigsTechTalk]

One of the best.

[@iandegroot2387]

Thanks for all I learnt, my new Apple TV was a big difference from my 3rd generation. The biggest recommendation I can make is to slow down the touchpad. Made my experience so much better.

[@TheTelferVlogs]

I turned my touch pad off

[@gregg5958]

Oh my gosh. You are a lifesaver!! I didn’t even know the “what did they say” feature even existed. Here I’ve been using the Apple TV all this time backing up the old fashioned way when there was a much more elegant solution. Ugh! Thank you thank you thank you. 🙏 You just made not only my life better, but my spouse and mom’s better too!

[@CraigsTechTalk]

You are welcome. Glad to help. I am with you and used the skip back to try and listen. It was a game changer for me too. I am glad your family is benefiting from it to. Thank you for watching.

[@jimg1474]

[@billdungan3709]

Can I use my Sony remote to control the Apple TV? I have a new Sony tv.

[@roberto.gallegos]

What would put it over the top would be internal storage to store your library on it so you can watch your movies offline

[@Vaticous]

“What did they say?” feature is insane, I had no idea. Thank you

[@CraigsTechTalk]

You are welcome. It is a great feature. I was listening to my wife used it yesterday. Thanks for watching.

[@ronsilberman276]

At the 7:26, you speak about ‘Smart Home’ button; I do not have a smart home button!! How can I insert one/active one??

[@ronsilberman276]

BTW, I have a newer 4K with latest software.

[@JJCoxUTube]

Hi Craig, nice video. Here is a feature I always like, when entering in a password just hold down on the select button and the letter will be capitalized (great for case sensitivity). Also, if you hold down on the delete button with the select key the entire line will be deleted.

[@6789uiop]

It suddenly forced me to sign in on my Roku TV when nothing had changed. It never used to require a sign-in. Prime doesn't require it after the 1st time. I'm not signing in on my own TV with that miserable password spelled via a remote's D-pad. Nope, cancelled.

[@UrbanRave1982]

So How do I find the fitness app for my apple tv

[@CraigsTechTalk]

It should be installed by default. If not you should be able to find it at the App Store. Thanks for watching.

[@CraigsTechTalk]

[@DanteYewToob]

I actually prefer Roku for the ‘what did they say’ feature… just click the ‘back’ button and it jumps back with subtitles. One click, that’s it. I like how connected and fast and easy the Apple TV is, but I think I still prefer my Roku Pro… I’ll have to keep learning about the Apple TV tho.

[@zendoll1]

Thank You I just ordered it. Didn’t know what 32 or 64 was, I ordered 64 4K

[@michaelkodesoh9945]

I have a non smart Samsung N5 32 inch TV will all the things you mentioned including color balance work on it?

[@nareshparikh]

Why 2 nd and 3 rd generation Apple TV are not having KZbin’ app.? Why should we upgrade all time?

[@krisin1834]

A bonus reason I got an Apple TV is because it enabled remote access and Siri control of addition smart home features. Specifically my Wemo lights switches/outlets. Because they’re the older versions I also required a Wemo hub. Nice to be able to control my lights outside the house without pulling out my phone.

[@minigiant8998]

i dont know how to pair 2 sets of homepods (4 total). it only lets me do two. any tips?

[@271830066]

HELP... I have an Apple HD TV with the NEW 2021 Remote. I can not find a way to completely have the remote turn off my Samsung Series 7 TV. When I hit the power button it put the Apple TV box in sleep mode and then it acts like it is powering off the TV, but within 10 seconds the TV comes back on. Then I have to use the TV remote to turn it off. I am trying to just use the Apple Remote. Do you have any ideals.

[@markdcmountp]

When I do the ‘What did they say’ feature I cant get the subtitles to turn off without manually doing so. Unless I’m just not waiting long enough. I also really agree with you. I wasn’t sure I was going to be able to get into Ted Lasso, but I absolutely loved it and I’m really hoping that the second season is just as good or better!

[@pattes4304]

Is „what did they say?“ only in the Apple TV content or also in 3rd party apps like plex?

Question how do you connect your ring doorbell to your Apple TV. With HomeKit like when your watching something and someone is at the door a pop up comes on the screen with video

Thank you fellow Craig. Appreciate you watching and subscribing.

[@TP_Beast]

Do you prefer apple or fire tv better? Everything in my home is echo powered so I love having everything connected but Apple TV just seems much cleaner, sleeker and a much better interface.

[@jessemorales146]

The Apple TV is way better. But if you’re already in the Alexa ecosystem, the fire tv can be very convenient. However, if you have an iPhone and Apple Watch, I would say it’s still worth getting the Apple TV. I’m still in the Alexa ecosystem in my home (echos everywhere, ring, Kasa smart products, Phillips hue lights) and I do not miss my old fire tv. The $200 price for the Apple TV is worth every penny.

[@alanb8116]

Great video Craig! I may yet get an Apple TV. I subscribe to damn near every service, so why not add another one. Lol just a side note, why does it not surprise me that you have a GRAY Mini Cooper... 😏

[@oscaraviles1891]

I just start to used after a used fire tv for long honest my experience is amazing how fast is logging and define the pictured is amazing because I’m a Apple ecosystem everything is connect but one thing I wish Apple add on the future is the availability to see you text and call when you watch tv on one corner no full screen that way you pause what you watching and answer o not and read text that way you don’t have to stop and to pick up phone and give the available to disable is you don’t wanted

Does it work on tv? I can get the “what did they say” to work on Netflix and HBO movies, for example, but not on KZbin tv, even if prerecorded. If I say “reverse 15 seconds” it backs up tho … guess I will just have to remember .

[@chianti95]

Does it work on live tv? I can get the “what did they say” to work on Netflix and HBO movies, for example, but not on KZbin tv news, even if prerecorded. On programs, it won’t work, either, but if I say “reverse 15 seconds” it backs up correctly

[@nithish.s5504]

I'm using an Apple TV 4K 2021 model and I couldn't see any 4k @ 120 hz option in the video and audio settings even though I'm using a certified HDMI 2.1 cable. Does Apple TV does not support 120 hz yet or is there any other tweaks that I should do to get the 120 hz option.FYI- my Tv supports a frame rate of 144hz.

[@agthegoat26]

no this models main selling point was finally being able to output 60hz

[@agthegoat26]

no 120hz. maybe next apple tv

[@holaybla]

Remote tip: The "little tv button" activates the appleTV app by default, but in the settings you can actually change it to go to home screen instead of apple tv, so now you don't have to long press the "back" button. I find it very cool since sometimes I'd want to see maybe a Marvel movie and then go back to home screen and KZbin to get a breakdown. Some people might find it useless, but for others they don't like to hold down the button. Either way, cool feature.

[@k3lvinsWorld]

[@juanfigueroa3769]

What if my tv doesn’t support hdmi 2.1. Should I still use a 2.1 hdmi for my 2021 4K Apple TV?

[@CraigsTechTalk]

Might not be worth the cost of the cable with it being a newer standard. Personally I would buy an Amazon basics 2.0. When you get a tv with 2.1, cable cost will go down and you can move the current tv with the 2.0 cable.

Do you have a video showing how you created this routine in the Apple Shortcuts app? I've tried to replicate your steps, but cannot figure out how to specify which Apple TV, or user account. I found your other video where you talk about the NFC sticker and that doesn't go into any detail. If there's a source for this information, I would appreciate it if you would point me to it.

I figured out the problem. I created my shortcut not at home, so when I would touch those linked areas, nothing would happen. When I did this at home, those links would populate with my Apple TV names, user accounts, etc.

Can I ask for a bit more help getting my new Apple TV 4k going pls? I have an Amazon Prime Video a/c and watch it on our Firesticks. I see a Video (Polar Storm) on the Apple tv and press Open In / Open In Prime Video app. Instead of it playing, I get a “How do I watch this” then “To watch this title, get an add-on subscription from the Amazon website on your mobile device or computer” - how do I do that pls?

[@CraigsTechTalk]

You would sign up for whatever subscription needed from Amazon.com. Then it will launch when you choose the show throw prime.

[@randallpatrickc]

@@CraigsTechTalk But I already have a subscription, do I need another one for the TV? I didn’t see that option on the Amazon site. I will look again. Very exciting - just turned on our first device fromSiri on my Apple Watch 😊

[@CraigsTechTalk]

Very cool using the watch. My guess is that what you are asking for is not a prime video movie. But rather an add on service. Such as amc+, hbo max, starz or one of the others. Amazon sells the services through Prime Video. That would be why it is telling you to purchase the service through the app or Amazon’s webpage. You can find the same services available through Apple TV+.

In your opinion….. is color balancing or HDR better? I set my AppleTv to HDR and I can’t color balance 🤷‍♂️

[@j800r_aswell]

Both. Run colour balance while set to SDR picture and then set your default output to HDR (I’m assuming you’re using Dolby Vision if the colour balance is greyed out), make sure you have the setting enabled to adjust picture according to content and then whenever you are watching content only available in SDR it will use the balanced colour profile for a more accurate image while Dolby Vision is already accurate due to the way it works.
