Anyone use the BT sport app and Sonos? I'm watching a match and the commentary is all coming from the rear speakers which is a bit off-putting.

The only thing I dislike about the remote is they've put the mute button where the play button (imo) should be. I haven't used the remote that much just yet but I already love it.

haha, yeah, same. But I’ll get used to that.

The old remote really was terrible, every time I picked it up there was always the chance it would pause, rewind, etc. So glad to be done with that thing.
 
Trying to work out how best to use the remote, for instance if I want to watch a film I know that's on nowtv, I ask play Film X on nowtv and it takes me to apple TV listing for that film where it would cost £3 to rent. Does voice activation always do this? I don't want it to search paid options on AppleTV+ I want it to search the paid apps I already have. How do you do this?

I also had an issue where I said "play toy story on disney plus" and when it played it was doing that audio description stuff, despite me never having used it before. Took me an age to find how to turn it off. Would an instruction guide be that hard for them to do! Or a link to the basics in the box.

ah that’s what it is, thought for some reason you get a new free year with either an IPhone or Apple TV box. :(

I had this problem when I got an iPad earlier in the year and Apple Support just advised me to create a new Apple ID if I want to claim it as its also one per household sharing.
