The only time I've heard any issues with the sound was when the latest season of See came out and it had an issue in the first episode. As far as everything I've watched say in the past month is Billie Eilish: The World’s A Little Blurry, Cherry, and the entire latest season of The Servant. No issues in either. AppleTV+ does not have tons of Atmos Content that I am interested in to be honest. Only other thing I'm wanting to watch is the Beastie Boys Story.
Ok, but you did have the 1 incident. My occurrences are much lower than in Netflix too, but happened more than that.
Well, I really don't think the actual show matters. I think it's just a matter of watching enough hours of Atmos shows for the issue to arise. It's so random too. We watched the entire first season of For All Mankind with no problems. One season is 10 episodes, so nearly 10 hours. Then around episode 5 of season 2 it happened once or twice. Then no more.
Ok, I need to put that show on and test it out. I watched some when it first came out but don't remember any problems. I got bored with it and didn't finish the episode. That's a good test I should run.
Somone on this thread posted about that too. I think they tested Netlfix with it and there was no difference at all in the problem. I will try to remember tonight to test out some on the Drive to Survive since it apparently seems to have a higher frequency of issues. I recently updated my player to the latest OS and updated manually all of the Apps. To update the apps you have to go into the app store and select it there. I had trouble finding that and had to look it up on the net. You have to maually go to each app in the store and hit update on each one, one at a time.
Thanks, with the AppleTV it seems reboots, and sometimes, cold boots, are required to really ensure it is running the latest.
Well, I don't think it can be said that the problem is entirely the Netflix App because the sound also screws up on the Apple tv + service as well. Netflix does seem to have it a bit worse, because it happens more often on there. I must say though that when I watched the 1st season of See on Apple it was every bit as bad as Netflix.
It’s weird because I tested this exact episode with 0 problem.
Yeah, I'm not convinced that the material (show) really matters much. It is probably all random, but it does seem rather curious to me that I had audio dropout after watching the show in under 2 minutes. That's the first time I've ever had that happen. So who knows.
Good information there. Wonder if that would help Apple any, and would they listen?
Others say that the Shield is buggy too. Do you have any problems with the Shield? Im just afraid to get another streamer and then end up hating that as much as I do the Apple. Im thinking about " the grass is always greener on the other side".
