Highly unlikely, iTunes movie is not the only feature in Apple TV and iTunes movies are not free.

Agree. My beelink Android box really cacat compare to my Apple TV 4. However, Nvidia Shield TV is as smooth as Apple TV if not better.

Latest AppleTV 4K update removed my AppleTV’s ability to turn off my TV. Was working fine previously.

It’s actually not. Apple TV have hardware bug that many people complain. You can google it. You can try reset Apple TV to see if that works.

has anyone experienced boot up being stuck on Apple Logo after updating software?
just updated to 12.3 on 4th gen Apple TV

I know this is half year ago question, I just notice this thread today, haha!

Movies Anywhere only can link account create in USA. In addition it is useless as it only playback as 1080p even your movies is 4K HDR.

Just switch your iTunes account if you have multiple country iTunes account, it is instant switch and only keying password once during setup.

So far no issue for me, I use Apple TV 4K remote one short turn off my Apple TV 4K, my Panasonic TV and also my LG SK9Y Soundbar.
Also work turning on all once.

So far until now, I never face any issue, touch wood. I am totally no regret buying Apple TV 4K.

So this is What is New in Apple tvOS 12.3, any different?
A better looking Apple TV icon, that it, inside is very similar as previous design.
Another changes is this new Apple TV app is finally support Malaysia iTunes account.

By the mean time, I totally No Regret buying Apple TV 4K, it is the only TV Box can playback Dolby Atmos for Netflix.
Beside this it is the cheapest way to get legal streaming movies up to 4K HDR.

Also, the processor is freaking powerful and no issue playback own collection up to actual 4K UHD Blu-ray without compression quality film.
Infuse doing it freaking awesome here.

I don’t see why we need TV app when the iTunes movie app work just fine.

I agree on that, that TV app is very useless for us and I never use.

It may a little useful for US and UK people as they can subscribe others TV channel there and can watch nearly everything in one app place instead of go for separation apps. But still it is not useful for me, I rather go different apps to watch. Also due to limitation like Netflix won't fully support, third party not streaming service apps not support, this Apple TV app became unable cover everything in one app, it is very useless in my opinion.

But it looks nice nevertheless...

Haha! It do look nice! Apple tvOS interface is well done and very friendly to use.

Yeah, it's weird, before it was OK. Now I find that if the TV is turned on by the AppleTV, the AppleTV will not be able to turn it off. If the TV is turned on by the TV's remote then the AppleTV will be able to turn it off.

Anyways, it's a really old Toshiba HD TV from 2009 which refuses to die. One white pixel is all it has to show for, for all those years in service. I guess I should be happy for that but that's why I have the ATV4K but no 4KTV.

Where’s your plex icon... since tv is useless why is it on your first fav icon... hehe

plex 2.2 for tvOS is awesome

Plex is not that good compare with Infuse. Plex is still in my Apple TV 4K box just somewhere below as I not using it. I keep it for hope one day it can do same as Infuse, maybe needs sometimes, already a year, not much improvement on Plex when enabling subtitle. I hope Plex can solve this issue as Plex had easier to find movies as they is a listing on side follow a b c. This is something missing from Infuse.

Plex cannot playback smoothly once enable .SRT subtitle. Beside this it also cannot enable .PGS or .VOBSUB subtitle as it will transcode the movie. Once transcode it is not original quality, the worst not support HDR. I already subscribe to Plex for testing the new player, but result is same. It won't transcode as long you not using .PGS subtitle. This is still not solved in latest version 2.2

Infuse no such issue and freaking smooth, that the reason I only use Infuse but connect to Plex Media Server for easier organize my movies.
The problem of Infuse is they don't have media server, thus I need supplement of Plex Media Server.

As for TV icon, I just put there during screen capture, haha! Just for illustration purpose.

My Plex is still there but not using until they solved the subtitle issue.

I guess we have different requirements... I am opposite of you infuse pro is just sitting there and not used. I don’t need subs as mostly watch English tv. For mobility especially catching up on series when travelling abroad plex is great. Sadly I don’t use infuse enough. As for srt subs. No complaints so far from users.

Srt no issue, just sometimes you will notice frame skip on remux copy of 4K HDR movie. No this issue on infuse.

But plenty movies came with pgs instead of srt especially those remux copy. I know can easier find subtitle replacement but I want instant find at apps not separate find at PC. Plex do support find subtitle instant but I think it disable it if already got subtitle inside as sometimes I don't find that option. Infuse always can find

I use to subtitle normatter what language movie I watch. I need English subtile even for English film. Chinese subtitle for Chinese film. Foreign movie that I don't understand I need English subtitle. Subtitle is too important for me.

Apple tvOS only I use Infuse and it is same mobility as Plex because I use Plex plugin inside Infuse.

Plex had better interface but weaker on smoothness performance and bad subtitle support.

I already infuse pro life time user because it give me the best. Plex Pass I only subscribe to test if they mentioned something new related to playback and subtitle support. At least it is support SRT now not like previous but it is not enough as at least need support PGS as well because this both is common.
