I am trying to setup the Home Sharing feature for my video library. There are 2 apple tvs in the house, one is my parents and one is mine. I setup home-sharing and can see the videos on my parents 4K apple Tv, however, they are only showing as HD instead of 4k Dolby Atmos/Vision like it should be. Is there any way to correct this or has Apple still not allowed home sharing to use 4K with all the bells and whistles.
Apple TV 4K
The movies from Apple are only available in 4K if you are streaming them, when you download them they will be in HD.
You can add to use accounts to your Apple TV. That way either of you can stream either your own purchases or the others.
Welcome to the Apple community.
I'm not sure where you will get 4K Dolby Atmos files from to put in your library, are you sure that this is the case and that they aren't simply HD files to begin with. Where did you get these files from?
When I download the movie on my computer from the TV app and click on it. It says it’s capable of 4K Dolby atmos/vision. Then when I view it on the 4K Apple TV it says it’s only in HD. Using the orange computer icon on the Apple TV.
Ah okay, is there any easy way to see my purchased movies on an Apple TV where I’m not the main user and view them in their 4K atmos/vision form.
Thank you very much for the help.
Sorry, that should have said you can add 2 user accounts (Dictation not 100% yet)
