Poll: ** The official Apple TV 4K thread (the 2021 model has a new remote and everything!) **

You need to upgrade to an Apple TV 4th gen or 4K.

Yes, I know that! But are there apps for tvOS that will play mkv files?

 

[LFletcher]

Yes, Infuse will play mkv files, https://firecore.com/

Where's the cheapest place to pick up a 4k 32g model?

 

[TJM]

Apple tightly controls prices. I just paid £179 rather than waiting for a sale that might not come for a long time.

£180 everywhere, I got mine from Very.

ITV Hub now available on the App Store.

Apple accidentally advertised the Amazon Video app in the app store today so it must be very close now.

 

[Broken Hope]

Launching before tha Grand Tour makes sense, that show is likely to get them new subscribers.

And it's live:

Apparently it doesn't support 5.1 audio.

ITV Hub now available on the App Store.

Just noticed that as well when I opened the App Store to install Prime Video. It's really quite funny that in the last month with the launch of My5, ITV Hub and now Prime Video my AppleTV 4th gen has become more useful than in the whole time I've owned it!
Apple should've had these services onboard prior to launching in the UK, it's no good playing catchup!

If Channel4 and UKTV Play will bring there services to tvOS I'd be even happier, but the likelihood of that is remote at least for Channel4 currently.

It's rolling out now, will also appear on iPhone/iPad too.

 

[Deleted member 138126]

Just by magic will show up as a new icon?

Yes it will just randomly appear. On the iphone/ipad it replaces the Video App.
