I’ve been trying the betas (Apple TV 4K and iPhone with latest IOS) hoping to find a fix for Live TV playback as reported here, here, and other threads.
Basically starting Live TV channel streams is hit or miss, which appears to be related to the player trying to start at the incorrect position time-wise. When it doesn’t start, you have several workarounds to force it to start. (jump back or to current time in the timeline, or toggle the playback quality.) . This is the same both with or without the new enhanced player.
Considering it’s not even mentioned here I can only assume it’s either working consistently for others, or nobody is really testing Live TV on the IOS betas much?
Any input would be appreciated!
