HDMI ARC on Apple TV

Should I plug my HDMI cable for Apple TV into the ARC port on my TV or will any port do? I am using stereo homepods.

Apple TV 4K, tvOS 14

The ARC port is intended for the connection between the TV and audio system (AV receiver or soundbar), but it is a also functional as a regular HDMI input.

If you can, you should use a different HDMI 2.0/HDCP 2.2 port on your TV for the connection to the Apple TV 4K box.
