As owner of a new ATV4, i would like to continue using floating cover art images from my music collection as my screensaver but I'm not sure how. It was easily don on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation versions of the device and it is a great conversation starter and peek into my music collection when guests visit my home. How do we get this screensaver on the 4th Generation AppleTV 4?
Apple TV (4th generation)
It's not possible in the same way on the Apple TV 4.
If you have any suggestions that you think might enhance the Apple TV you can send Apple your feedback here
As a work around you could use a screen capture app to collect your iTunes artwork into Photos on your computer then share it either in a home sharing album or a shared album, which your Apple TV can then use as a screensaver.
TThanks for clarifying. Eh. I'll leave feedback for Apple but I'm really feeling like ATV4 is a step back. It removes this engaging feature that been present since day one, removes podcasting, remote app and streaming radio, doesn't support 4K and it adds an overly sensitive remote that requires me to consciously keep it off the couch. I'm not a gamer and rarely played iOS games via AirPlay before so the ATV as a gaming console doesn't replace what was lost. its a bad deal for us right now.
I Think the new ATV4 is a great leap with some bugs to work out. But the best part of being a consumer is having choice. You don't have to upgrade. the ATV3 may meet your personal needs in which case you would absolutly keep using it. I love the new ATV but I still have my 2 and 3 hooked up and still get some use as well In different places (garage and kids playroom)
