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

    How about don’t do this:

    1. Open search in YouTube (and other apps?)
    2. Use speech button to speak my search
    3. Release the button a little slow. Like a split fucking second longer than my speech.
    4. It erases everything I said and clears the search results.

    Happens all the damn time. I can reproduce it on three people’s Apple TV with either kind of remote. How has no one in charge not experienced this?

    If you want to reproduce it very easily, stop speaking and keep holding the button down for a couple seconds. You’ll get search results. Now release the button. Bam. Gone.

      To best honest that sounds like a YouTube thing, as does it do it on any other app? If it done it on any other app with a similar feature maybe it would be Apple but if it’s just YouTube maybe Google didn’t integrate it correctly.

    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.
