Hello,

I recently bought Apple TV 4K 128gb version for my LG OLED TV. Initially, I thought it’s excessive, but after hooking it up, I was happy that I made the purchase. I watch YouTube a lot and I know that it doesn’t support Dolby Vision natively, but I set Apple TV to 4K with Dolby Vision. It’s been pretty great, but almost every time at the start of a video, I see a lot of frame drops. I’m on TV OS beta, but I think it’s the same even on regular version as well. Sometimes it drives me crazy, but most of the time it’s fine. Is it expected as it converts to Dolby Vision format?

Also, I have a 5.1 Dolby Atmos sound bar which is connected to the eArc port of the TV and I also have two HomePods. When I try to use both sound bar and the HomePods at once, it seems like there is delay on the HomePods as it’s just Airplay. When I put the HomePods sound at low level, it sounds fine. But if I increase the sound, it feels like there is so much echo because of the audio delay. Anyone with similar setup had/managed to fix this “issue”? Thanks in advance!

    You are not going to get both the soundbar and HomePods to play nice together, HomePods can sync to each other but not to other non-AirPlay speakers.
