tvOS 27 Public Beta Released - Finally Adds This Apple TV Feature
Video Overview & Insights
tvOS 27 Public Beta is officially here with new Apple TV features and changes, including updated compatible devices, a redesigned Podcasts app, new Podcast channels, faster profile switching, lossless audio support, improved AirPlay, faster Control Center performance, adjustable text size, AppleCare and Warranty info, HomeKit 4K camera support, and easier Apple TV updates through the Home app.
Why are Apple obsessed with appearance rather than functionality?
The Podcast App on Apple TV has always been rubbish, it’s so bad I use screen mirroring from iPad or iPhone to listen to podcasts. The iOS Podcast App could be better, but it’s so much better than the TVOS app

Hi. I'm posting this up on just about every single tech/audio/video channel I can find in the hope of getting some clarity from SOMEONE on question I thought would be easily answered. I have an Insta360 X3 and I use it a lot while I'm out skating. As everyone knows, the X3 does not deal with wind noise well, and having tried the wind noise reduction setting and the mic muffs, both of which I found to be fairly ineffective, I thought I'd try an external mic. I was, of course, steered straight towards DJI.
It's probably about now that I should clarify something about my needs etc. Firstly, I don not want to have to use receivers or adaptors etc, I'm looking for a direct connection via Bluetooth. I am well aware that will compromise or limit everything from audio quality to connection stability etc and I am absolutely fine with that, I have no need for particularly high end audio. So, with that in mind, I went to the Internet with a very simple question; which of the DJI microphones will connect to an X3 via Bluetooth, and I can not get s straight answer from ANYWHERE. I've tried both Insta360 and DJI, reddit has come up dry and so here we are. I'm hoping some channel, or someone who comes across this maybe has an X3 and all, or any, of the mics and can let me know.
cheers

5:31 AppleCare & Warranty Info on Apple TV
When is Apple going to add a numerical volume display on the TV's screen? If you have a home theater with a small volume display (SONY HT-A9) you're always guessing how loud it is.
6:06 Get Support Directly from Apple TV

A dedicated, universal video player and PICTURE IN PICTURE are the only features we NEED.

More User Perspectives
Useless.
@WhatLorainewhatThanks for sharing, however what’s glaringly missing from your showcase is how the new Siri AI works on the Apple TV or not…🤔
@GregStewSuper unimpessive.
@JohnIn2SonAZAre we getting a new Apple TV this year? That’s what I want to know!
@shangrammohammad8453Will it allow 2 apple Siri Remotes now?
@billconnell8688The thumbnail image doesn’t exist in the video. Why lie or fake screenshots?
@Cabinet20Can we get ability to have tv and separate speakers at same time? And have audio channels separated, speech and background and effects separated?.
@runforrestrun1965Lossless audio was already there, but hi-res is new
@WildTanglerDid I lip read the guy on the ring camera properly? Ha.
@dougkerr5952I'm having issues with audio syncing. It slowly gets worse until I restart the ATV. Watching on a Sony Bravia 7 and using a Sony sound bar. Any suggestions?
@kwahausLossless Audio as part of tvOS 27 Public Beta Released is incorrect.
@fred4838I share icons all the time too! We're Iconskimo brothers.
@s3cunitwe always had lossless but not hi-res lossless. the real question is, can homepod output hi-res lossless?
@Anonyme09865With the understanding Apple TV and streaming apps use APIs, want to see AI able to do things like recognize in-video ads and auto-mute them, recognizing and auto selecting skip buttons within video content, etc.
@grcigar9911So Apple's gonna kill off the Apple TV HD that works just fine? 🙄🤦🏻♂️😡
@CorneliusTaylor-s1uDoesn't matter. The box is no longer a good value anymore.
@CorneliusTaylor-s1uColor Balance option is missing in tvOS 27 and I don't see 192khz lossless music option on my 2nd gen 4K
@张骋昊Lossless was already available on tvOS. I think hi-res lossless is new though.
@MacFan2410Wish it had usb c
@GrayMimikyuI’m still trying to get it to work with my Sony ht-a9 and a95k. anyone that has new Sony equipment paired with tv os 27 with any ideas I would be grateful
@narnarbarStill no subtitles, change text size… DAMN YOU APPLE, I don’t want to use Apple’s pre-customised size, because “Large” text size is for SkyShowtime, Amazon Prime Video, and HBO apps a bit too large, because one word is too long and it comes to the next row, just before the second long subtitle row, this is so stupid lol
@DarkAngelX2truehd, dts-hd ma passthrough is the only upgrade I've been waiting for tvOS but I know it's not going to happen
@bethesoultreeLooking forward to the Iceland compilation as I haven’t seen any of your trips there as of yet.
@MercSLRFani don't have the same settings under audio. all i see is sound check and song transitions. i just updated to tvos 27.
@akasinned52Is there any hi rez content on Apple Music yet?
@narnarbarHDMI audio passthrough? I literally don't care about anything else.
@mrp40404Every rumor video I've seen fails to mention audio passthrough or ANY meaningful specs on any picture enhancement features incuding Dolby Vision 2. If Apple thinks I'm going to pay $500.00 for a box that is not a serious upgrade they are going to be unpleasantly surprised.
@johncosgrove2738Audio Passthrough 🤞🏻
@outpost3178Shame is screws up HDR from working correctly
@MrCthulhuI keep waiting for real improvements. Faster airplay is great. Icon jiggle with liquid glass....Not so much
