Fantastic Craig I also like screen mirroring my favorite movies or calls to a friends tv.
We LOVE Ted Lasso at our house. Eagerly awaiting season 2.
Awesome, clear video! Great job Craig!
Great tips Craig. Love the shortcut switching users on the ATV. Good stuff! And yes…most importantly, watch Tes Lasso! 👍🏻
Thanks for the tip about setting up folders!
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.

If you are worried about “bit perfect” audio, the Apple TV will resample 44.1khz streams to 48k. 99% of people won’t care!
Great introductory video Craig! Just bought the 5th Get AppleTV 4K as my first AppleTV - Can't wait to get started with it and get exploring all its features!
I've just discovered you Craig, and you've already got my ToDo list full to bursting! Really great channel - subscribed!
Love the Ted Lasso tip. Great video Craig. Love your work.
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!
Great tips Craig. Best tip was Ted Lasso.....what a great show!
Also watch Mythic Quest in Apple TV+. I’m also starting to watch, Little Voice, seems intriguing as a series
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.
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.

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?

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.

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.

Can I use the Apple TV to play all the movies in MKV / MPEG format that sit on my NAS ?
eeeeh learned a few new things :)
You can also control a sound bar volume with the remote.
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, KZread, 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.
Liked based solely on the what did they say tip. Sold!

Good video can you please help with a widget on my iPhone. Last time you helped me with my shopping list. This time I’m looking for a widget to go on Home Screen. I want to asinine a name out of my contacts list to the widget so i call them. Thanks Len

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”.
Actually you can drag and drop apps into folders. I have been doing that. Just drag an app on top of another one to create a folder or drop it into an existing one. I haven't figured out how to rename one
how do i get the smart home when i push the home screen cuz it’s not popping up
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 KZread 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.

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.
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.

Now, next question: I have a humdinger of a 5.1 surround system I brought over from the UK - a Denon receiver and B&W Front, Center and Rear speakers. How would you recommend hooking them up? Is it even possible to get 5.1 (or something) from a stream? I have only ever played 5.1 DVDs.

Glad to hear you got it figured and it is looking good with color balance. The way mine is hooked up is the out of the Apple TV goes to my receiver along with any other sources. Then from my receiver an HDMI goes to the TV. Most surround systems have an HDMI pass through for video and the sound is covered by the surround system.
The up next section does it work with Netflix , Disney+ ? Some say yes but I don’t see any other shows than Apple TV+ ?

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.

I love the Up Next feature but because I add all movies and shows I want to watch in the future the list becomes way too cumbersome to sort through and find certain items depending on the type of entertainment I feel like watching at the time.
