Trying to watch Avengers: Infinity Wars in Commentary Mode

Can anyone shed some light on why Commentary Mode doesn't work for Avengers: Infinity War

Nothing happens except a blank movie Screen with "Live Broadcast" showing below the Pause/Start Button.

I did notice in the Selection Icon (bottom right corner) stating "Prefer AC3 Passthrough".

Any ideas?

Morning Wars has wrong "last time" on and "making of" footage - ruins episode! Australian subscriber here to AppleTV+ Sat down to watch S02E05 of "Morning Wars" (Australian title. You'll know it as the "Morning Show". Stupid, I know). The footage at the top of the episode, ie the "Last time on..." was actually the recap for the same episode - episode 5. This ruined the episode as it effectively gave up all the plot beats. Then, if you stick around for the making of featurette afterwards, it's actuality the featurette for the next episode - the one that hasn't even screened yet. More spoilers. Worst of all - there is NO FORM OR COMMUNITY to provide this feedback back to Apple. Only forums for the AppleTV hardware, not the streaming service. Pretty awful, all round. Great show though. Just wish the ep and next hadn't been spoiled by someone's editing mistake. Does anyone from Apple read this? Sounds urgent.

Purchased Movie: Sound But No Picture I purchased Escape Room: Tournament of Champions on my AppleTV. I watched the default (extended) cut by simply pressing play, no problem. Then I tried to watch the theatrical cut. The cut plays sound but there’s no picture, just a black screen. Subtitles show up, and the slider when I scroll ahead shows scene shots, but no matter where I scroll to, no picture. I tried turning subtitles off. I tried restarting my device. Everything else on my AppleTV works fine, so it’s not an HDMI issue. What gives?

Try turning Prefer AC3 Passthrough off and see if that works any better.
