Don't care about channel 5 but would like bbc and itv in there anyone got any ideas why they are not there as I like the fact that up next is then focused to that app once you go into the menu.

Other uk users have the same is what I am asking?

You need to download the relevant app to the AppleTV and login to them.

BBC could not give a shit about their Apple TV app. See their complete lack of subtitle functionality.

However they blame Apple for the AppleTV not supporting what they use for delivery. Pretty much the same reason for no UHD either because Apple TV doesn’t support DVB-DASH.

It is all a bit annoying considering iPlayer works without issue on lesser powered devices, same with Netflix and no interactive content.

ITV and BBC need to update their apps, my guess is Apple will onboard them when the 17.2 officially launches
