  1. It would be reasonable for @IntrinsicGroup to provide some update at this point, bad news would be better than no news. If you have dropped the product be upfront about it. Apple has now announced the next version of tvOS 16.
  2. Now that we are in May, any updates you can share?   My dealer has suggested when the C4 new core controller comes out I take advantage of the additional IR's and drop your driver.    I hope that isn't what I need to do and you have the update done before the new controllers come out.

    Any update would be helpful.

      Are we talking about Apple TV? We're still actively working on the driver but unfortunately I still don't have a release date as yet. IR is always a reliable option as there's no concerns about compatibility with future firmwares but it doesn't provide the same feature-set as an IP driver. Control4 have a HomeKit option native to the platform that may be worth discussing with your dealer as well.

      As soon as I have more info on a release date we'll post an update, apologies I can't be of any further help at this time.

      Sorry, yes I was talking Apple TV and the incompatibility with tvOS 15.     Any idea on when you will have more information to give a release date?    ie a plan for a plan?   Do you see being able to announce release date in Q3, Q4?  2023?   Any indication would be helpful as I try to decide whether stick with the product or move on.  Thank you.

      Unfortunately it's really hard to give an indication. There has been multiple times in the last 12 months we've thought we're close to a beta release and then when put through more rigorous tests the driver hasn't been stable enough. It's hard to know when the breakthrough will occur. I appreciate that's not a helpful answer at all and I wish I could give a clearer idea but I honestly can't say if it will be a few weeks or a few months. Control4 does have other options available for Apple TV, whereas other control platforms such as Elan and RTI don't, so you could ask your dealer to install the native HomeKit driver instead as that works on existing controllers.

  3. tvOS 15.2 is now out and you have been beta testing for several months.   Any chance of a Christmas present from Intrinsic?    At least a timeline at this point would be reasonable. 

  4. Can you provide some sort of updated timeline? Several months ago you were beta testing which was the last I heard. Thank you in advance.
  5. I had the same problem, but don't have a free IR on the HC800. So I went back to the Apple remote, not ideal.
  6. Now that you are beta testing, any update on GA release? I have two Apple TV's that family members have accidentally upgraded so I am now back to the pain of using Apple remotes to control the apple tv and the C4 remote for everything else.
  7. I signed up for your newsletter in May, but have never gotten one. Did you ever publish an end user newsletter?
  8. That is good to hear after tvOS 13 debacle I am reluctant to try.
  9. Does anyone know if when I upgrade my Apple TV 4K to TV OS 14 will break the integration with the Intrinsic driver? Since I can't go backward I want to be careful.
  10. Thanks. Do you know why it breaks without the latest version? I’m not sure sure why the March version wouldn’t continue to work. Thamks again.
  11. So, before I incur a service charge from my installer, how do I figure how if I need an upgrade. It stopped working in mid-late March, after the installer did an upgrade it was good. So, it was upgraded on March 27th, how do I figure out if that it what I need again? I don't quite understand the frequency with which I have issues with this driver. I don't have it with any other driver with issues and I do have other 3rd party drivers. I'd happily upgrade it myself, but not being able to do that, it feels like constant a fishing exercise. I have resisted paying for annual service contract with my dealer, but this one driver may necessitate it. In the end it might be cheaper to upgrade my HC800 and avoid the need for the driver.
  12. I have gone into Composer HE and I can't find the version number for the driver. When do I find the version number? I signed up for the newsletter a month ago and have not gotten any news about a new release.
  13. @IntrinsicGroup My driver stopped working again, I've rebooted the controller and both of my Apple TV's. Any other suggestions?
  14. I've signed up as well. Thank you. I agree line 2 of the address should NOT be required.
