enable picture in picture

My apple tv gen 4 hd purchased recently in 2020 does not scroll up for that picture in picture feature.

am i doing something wrong or missing a setting?

I am swiping the glass remote section up while the time frame is on the video playing.

(the sound and subtiltles are shown when scrolled down)

i just upgraded to 14.02 just now.

thank you

Apple TV HD, tvOS 14

  1. While a movie or TV show plays, tap the Touch surface on your Siri remote to bring up the video timeline.
  2. Swipe up on the Touch surface to highlight , then click the Touch surface to select it. If you don't see , Picture in Picture isn't supported. 

SO

if HBO is streaming a show, they are the ones to set picture in picture on their videos?

i should try this feature while watch "long way up" again.

I've found these articles listing apps that are Picture in Picture compatible. I know that HBO offered various stand alone apps + a specific Apple TV channel app. Check what HBO app are you using:

As you suggested, try inside Apple TV+: it should definitely work there.
