Does Continuity Camera work with an Apple TV HD?

Continuity Camera...

As with using an iPhone for a Mac mini (6,1) as a camera and microphone.

Does the same apply to an AppleTV HD (5.3), ie, as camera and microphone?

Would seem possible! Mistaken? No support in the tvOS? Any ideas?

Thx, James :)

Cannot add Aqara G100 camera to Apple TV Home settings Hi. I have purchased Aqara G100 security camera, which supports apple home. The problem is that, I can’t add it to Apple Tv 4k. It’s already been added to my iPhone’s Home app. I watched numerous videos on YouTube, but nothing useful. They all claim (including chatgpt) that there is Apple Home thing in Apple Tv’s settings. But it disappeared. My all apple devices and Aqara camera is in their latest version, updated. May be it existed some time ago or in older IOS versions. Can anyone help me? Is there a solution to this? How can I add it to Apple Tv? Step by step guide. Thanks in advance, everyone.

Are new features in tvOS 18.2 dependent on Apple TV display compatibility? Just updated my two 4K devices (A16 and A18) to TVOS 18.2. Neither seem to have any of the new features (Snoopy screensaver, aspect ratios, etc). After considering it for a while, I realized that in both cases, the displays theApple TV devices are connected to are 10 years old or more. I am wondering if the new features are dependent on the capability of the display. There doesn't seem to be anything published about it, and I am seeing other posts from people who have done the update and do not see these features so it makes me think there is an external dynamic like the TV display not supporting the feature.

Help in keeping the Best Picture Settings in Apple TV 4K ? Hello Guys, I have an Apple TV 4K 1st generation connected to my Hisense TV. I need advice on the best settings for both devices, especially for watching Dolby Vision and HDR content. I am talking about these settings on Apple TV - https://postimg.cc/FYY7sRFT Specifically, I'm looking for: 1. Recommended settings for Apple TV and Hisense TV for optimal Dolby Vision and HDR performance. 2. Do I need to manually adjust TV picture settings every time I switch between content types. 3. isnt there like an automatic setting on Apple TV that selects the best picture settings on the Apple TV itself and the TV, including color temperature for Dolby Vision and HDR? I want an automated solution so I don't have to manually adjust settings on both devices for each content type. Attached are screenshots of my current Hisense TV settings. Any guidance on what changes to make in the Video and Audio Format sections would be appreciated. https://i.postimg.cc/V63bvjCn/Whats-App-Image-2024-06-20-at-8-25-16-PM.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/fTQ9hfZh/Whats-App-Image-2024-06-20-at-8-25-15-PM.jpg Can you guys help me?

For FaceTime use (or Zoom, etc.), you’ll need an Apple TV 4K (2nd generation or later).

For Apple Music Sing iPhone as microphone use, you’ll need an Apple TV 4K (3rd generation).

Not sure what other uses you might have in mind?

No, unfortunately not for the listed usage.

Please note that Apple TV HD is 2015 hardware, with associated age limitations for what the processor can comfortably handle.

Continuity features and requirements for Apple devices - Apple Support

Comparing with Macs, Ventura or later is needed, which requires a ~2017 or later model Mac.
