Really? I've been avoiding that one. Maybe I should give it a chance.

I've been avoiding it too, but after watching the first 20 or so minutes I started to get into it. I like the idea of Orgs, Elves and Fairies in modern day LA, has sort of a "Lord of the Rings" feel to it.

Stuff blows up good. Story never blows up good.

 

[Johnny Angell]

I'm just happy you got it to work correctly. After watching the first 20 minutes of "Bright", I have to finish watching the rest of the movie.

Is that the one with Will Smith? I watched 20' and that's all I could take.

That's the one.

I just checked, I actually watched 40 minutes this morning so I'll finish the rest probably tomorrow.

 

[Robert Crawford]

I finished watching "Bright" last night. Not a good movie, but I was entertained.

Bad news for you then as a sequel has been announced by Netflix.

Not really. I subscribe at the level where Netflix lets me choose what I watch.

I was being facetious with my comment.

I knew you were and so was I, hence the emoticon.

I just got the Apple TV.
Plugged it in, turned it on and set it up.

Just trying to figure out the ui now.

Did come across one problem.

I can’t login to WatchTCM

It gives me a code, I go to tcm.com/activate
Follow the prompts but it always goes back to the code entry screen without ever logging me inTCM.

Searched but don’t find anything that answers this specific situation.

When in doubt, always try restarting it. It's in General>System

 

[TonyD]

I’ll try that.
Seems odd that only one app does this.

I did delete and reinstall it. Still didn’t work.


Would be great if you could simply login to apps with going to,an activate web address.

Did you mean "without" going to an activate web address? Most of the time you don't have to. You just sign in with your username and password. Amazon Prime (I think) also requires getting a activation code from Amazon for each device, but that's clearly Amazon's decision, not Apple's.

Anything cable TV related needs an access code, I think.

Are you logging in using your cable provider user ID? Is your provider one of those listed?

 

[TonyD]

Yes and yes.

I tried to screen record what is happening I’ll see if I can post that.
So at least these two are giving me issue and possibly a few others.


TCM



AMC

 

[Scott Merryfield]

Tony,

Not sure if it makes a difference, but the activation code I receive from TCM is in all caps, and I enter it that way. I cannot help with AMC, as I never loaded that app.

 

[TonyD]

Yeah tried that too.
Doesn’t seem to matter.
AMC allows for the activation and says I can go back to the app and watch but it actually has not been activated.
TCM seems to be an issue with the Dtv login going through.
I can watch the movie intros but when I try to watch a movie it kicks it back to the activate screen.

I’m becoming increasingly frustrated with this.

Can’t login into at least a half dozen apps.
Amazon Video only produces stereo 2.0 as a sound option.

Can only get Atmos through ITunes.
No Atmos on Vudu.

Audio is pcm multi.

Man, you got all kind of issues. Is your TV provider linked up with your 4KATV? Do you have the Vudu app on your 4KATV? If you do have the Vudu app then it should be playing Atmos if provided. How long have you had this 4KATV unit?
