Edit: I have the new Apple TV 4k and new remote.
I changed the sensitivity of the tracking to the lowest but that’s only for the speed of tracking, not the activation sensitivity of the touch pad. They really need a setting to change the activation sensitivity because it is TOO DAMN SENSITIVE.
If I’m watching YouTube TV, any time I press one of the arrow keys, I’m suddenly rewinding 30 seconds on the scrubber. I don’t get why the touch activation is even on the left and right arrow keys. If you look at it, there’s clearly a distinct circle indicating where the touch pad is. They should limit the touch area to just that inner circle.
I think this is a YTTV problem. I’ve experienced similar recently on that app but not on any other app.
