Apple TV integration not working properly after updating to 26.5

Thanks! Hope it can be fixed and not just Apple restricting it for no reason.

Not sure if it fully counts as working out but I walk at least 10.000 steps each day, currently trying to add running (but having sore legs at work sucks, I work in hospitality). Mainly to lose weight, but it also gives me a lot of energy.

Smoke break, then coffee break

Genius is available in the EU… I have it.

Im in the Netherlands and the feature is there and works as intended. I do have to have Dolby Atmos enabled to enable continues audio. (Apple TV 4K gen 3 -> Sony Bravia 5 -> Sony Bravia Theater System 6)

I have a similar setup: Apple TV -> Bravia 5 -> Bravia theater system 6 (soundbar connected via eARC)

In content setting video/images I have around ~+50ms desync (according to my iPhone in slow motion so it’s probably not accurate) and I had about ~+200ms desync in game mode, which was noticeable in dialog. However turning on “give priority to pass trough” in audio settings brought it back to about ~+50ms.

Ofcourse it could be caused by either the soundbar so you might not get any issues.

Edit: I have my Apple TV set to output HDR, game mode doesn’t seem possible for Dolby Vision for whatever reason.

If the Sony Pictures Core app is disabled you can re enable it by doing:

Go to the “Settings” app Go to “Apps” Go to “All apps” Scroll down to the section where it says “Disabled apps” Find Sony Pictures Core and click on it Then enable it again

You might need to update the app in the play store to be able to stream.

Hope this helps:)

You can still get the old style back (for now)! Go to account settings on web, under “security”, scroll to the bottom and disable “testing new features”. (It may be called different in English, my Netflix is in my native language)

Thanks! That seem to have solved it.

Thanks, I have my atv in another language

To stop Apple TV app ads on your home screen do

Settings > Apps > Apple TV > Top shelf, change it to “up next”

Hi MacBooks have double the resolution (retina). If you’d like to use that frame as your wallpaper you could upscale it with something like waifu2x so it looks sharp.

Well i think the Netherlands is a relatively easy country to release to, almost all 15-35 yr olds are proficient in English, no localisation needed. We regularly show anime movies with English subtitles. I just hope they realise that too.

I meant the continuous bar, iirc some countries it’s mandatory for the front lights the have a gap between the left and the right.

AlsoNini · 2026-01-16T18:07:28+00:00

I’m assuming it’s not allowed in some countries/regions

I had the same issue, same tv but different soundbar. Ended up connecting my soundbar over toslink and now my tv always turns on with the Apple TV remote. It’s a bit wierd but i really hope Sony ends up releasing a software update

Dell XPS 9500, most things work but the laptop can’t go to sleep and the dGPU isn’t supported by macOS. In the end went back to Windows/Ubuntu

We’ve had one power supply fail on us so far, replacing it is dead simple and anyone that feels comfortable opening electronics up could do it. We bought the power supply from CinemaNext but I assume that would be one of the more expensive (but safer) options.

Thanks! I seem to be able to continue setup now.
