Hello!
Got a questions to Apple TV owners WITH a smart/android TV.
What else do you use the Apple TV for? Exclusively for AirPlay from phone/tablet/laptop?
Any other benefits apart from that? Considering to get one, but don't quite see the point since the only streaming channel I use is Netflix and it's already available natively on my TV.
Thanks!

QUOTE(soonwai @ Nov 12 2019, 12:43 PM) I used it for Netflix & Youtube even though my TV already has the latter 2. Malas to switch input source. Airplay not so much. My main reason for getting the ATV4K was to use it as a Homekit hub. Noticed that I talk in the past tense as I'm now using a HomePod. Sold the ATV4K just before the AppleTV+ keynote. I thought Apple was going to release a new version. Anyway with AppleTV+ and Arcade, I'll be getting another unit soon. HomePod. How is that working for you? If it's gonna be for the Arcade and youtube/netflix, I don't think there's a real reason for me to get the ATV to be frank. Not likely to do set up any homekit anytime soon as well. This leaves me with just Airplay huh. Ah well. Thanks for the response kind stranger! I guess I'll hold off from getting one. Unless I get a really good price on one

QUOTE(muruga89 @ Jan 18 2020, 10:10 AM) Anyone has problem with playing contents on appletv (Apple Tv app) with unifi? Other streaming service like netflix and amazon prime working fine. But can’t play movies from iTunes and series from AppleTV+ (Comes out message : there’s a problem loading this content). There’s at least three of us with the same problem, including you. Head over to the Apple TV+ thread if you haven’t already. The general consensus seems to be an issue of when it’s being played. Day time seems to be fine, with issues from evening to night.
