@appletv What is one thing you wish the Apple TV could do but it can’t right now?

    1. Be able to turn off the swipe feature since most people who use the remote get mis-swipes when trying to click the big button
    2. Always play HDR correctly instead of messing up the color channels

    For #2, this started after an OS update. It worked fine before. Now, HDR starts playing with messed up color channels (black looks magenta). If I shut off the AppleTV and turn it back on and resume playing, the channels are fine. Also, occasionally, it will just give static and make popping noises. I can’t find any setting that would fix this.

      You can turn off swipe on the remote:

      Go to Settings > Remote and Devices > Click Pad

      Set it to “click only.”

      Now you use the directional buttons, and the center is just a button. Use triple-clicks on arrows for some things, like closing apps.

      I feel like the new update has fixed the swiping issue for me though. It feels like it has better “brakes”. Might just be my imagination though.
