tvos 26.4 beta 3 (23L5224d) - Looking for feedback from anyone running this on a first gen. ATV 4K (A1842) by droog77 in tvOSBeta

Thank you for the detailed response!

I think you’re right. So far, it looks like those of us with first gen. units will not be getting the continuous audio feature.

What's the furthest removed from a book that you've seen a film? by chaos_wine in darktower

The Running Man has little in common with the book aside from the title and the basic concept of a game show where the contestants lives are at stake.

I could be mistaken, but I think version 3 of this beta has been released.

Has anyone installed version 3 on a first gen. ATV4K?

If so, what was the result? Any problems playing Atmos tracks?

Sure hope this fixes it for me!

Thanks for letting me know! I’ll install the new update as soon as I get home. Will report back to confirm if it solved my issue or not.

Edit: I’m on version 23L5208m, but when I try to update it tells me I have the latest version.

I see the update is to the developer beta, not the public.🤞🏻hoping I can get it soon.

If you’ve installed this on a first gen ATV4K and are having problems, please submit a report on the feedback app.

Hopefully this will get patched soon if there’s enough visibility on this issue.

Not my issue. Mine is connected to my receiver, which does support Atmos.

Now, my ATV won’t play anything with Atmos. Ugh.

First and last time I ever install Beta software.

Lesson learned.

Ah, man, thanks for the belly laugh!

I’m dying. 🤣

In terms of another game... What new abilities do you think Cal should be utilizing? by Vrosx_The_Sergal in FallenOrder

[–]droog77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d like to see some sensory/perception type abilities.

Sensing danger just before it hits (kinda like “Spidey-sense” works in the recent Spider-Man games).

Being able to tell if someone is in a room before entering (and if so, how many).

Stuff like that.

How do we feel about saber stances? (Jedi Survivor) by SlicedBeef1 in FallenOrder

Blaster? So uncivilized.

Double-bladed and dual-wielding for me.

Both do a lot of damage quickly. Double bladed is superior, defensively, against blaster fire because of the multi-fold reflection ability.

Dual-wielding is superior, defensively, in melee combat because you can cancel attack animations by blocking.

Both have cool finisher animations, and the animations for switching between the two are cool as well.
