🇬🇧 Just finished watching S01 (looks like more are coming) #Sugar on #AppleTV+. Overall a good series, although nothing particularly compelling. Without spoilers, I can say that there was an interesting and unexpected twist.
🇵🇱 Właśnie skończyłem oglądać S01 (wygląda na to, że nadchodzi więcej) #Sugar na #AppleTV+. Ogólnie dobry serial, aczkolwiek nie ma w nim nic nadzwyczaj przyciągającego. Bez spoilerów mogę powiedzieć, że był ciekawy i niespodziewany twist.
Got to troubleshoot #AppleTV tomorrow. First dad says he can’t turn TV ON (Siri remote). I turn it on via my iPhone’s Apple TV remote. I look at settings to see battery status but it shows remote not connected. So I plug Siri remote to charge. Was going to try to restart it & re-pair it after. I remind him of how to use his iPhone as remote. Then he keeps calling me that he can’t turn the TV OFF. Every time I turn it OFF with my phone it comes back ON by itself shortly after. Had to unplug it!
The YT app on Apple TV is really testing my patience. Besides the super annoying pause screen that kicks in now, and the screensaver, it resets your place in a list every time (e.g. going through your watch later list, or videos from all your subscriptions). If you play a video, it always resets to the top of the list when you back out to the list. I hate this behavior in any app. 😡 #UX#UI#annoyance#gripe#AppleTV
Post-holiday Tuesday blues got you down?
Check out my latest blog post where I share some of my favorite stress-relief TV shows that have been absolute lifesavers for me. 📺
ps. Sending you virtual hugs friends! 🤗
Apple TV+ has renewed "For All Mankind" for a fifth season, and will expand that storytelling universe with the spin-off series "Star City", a paranoid thriller set when the Soviets put the first man on the Moon. #ForAllMankind#StarCity#AppleTV#Entertainment#Television#TV#Streaming
Have you ever found a piece of media that you thought to yourself, "Yes, this thing was very specifically designed with me, personally, in mind when it was created."
That's how I felt watching this video of aespa from the new Fraggle Rock show where they are covering a song from the original series. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPnjKZFgeiE
To my #appletv bubble: What is the best open source solution to play my own videos from network storage on my Apple TV? I used to use Plex, but that started to suck and isn’t really open. Now I am using VLC, but it is buggy. Doesn’t work well with HomePods in a home theater setup. So basically I need an AppleTV app that lets me play from an SMB share and supports HomePods.
TV+ down for anyone else? I’m getting “there’s a problem loading this content” on my TV, and the TV app on macOS just bounces back to the menu if I try to play any TV+ content. Library content plays fine and the System Status page (https://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/) says everything’s fine (because of course it does). Restarted devices. #appleTVplus#appleTV#tvOS
The cool thing about #Netflix and #AppleTV+ releasing copies of each other's series is that when one makes a #scifi series, we also get a second sci-fi series 🤩. Bonus points when one chooses to use their "filmed in the EU" quota for it. It's a win-in :) 🍿
