It seems that Apple could this fallonecan present a device for which we have been waiting for roughly as long as the highway to Košice or Half-Life 3. However, unlike my two examples, Apple TV The 4th generation should really come out and the latest admin from the server 9to5mac, which has in Appif legitimate sources confirm it. The public expects the news to bring support for apps and games from App Store, voice control via Siri and finally support for live streaming. But will all of this be true?
First of all, to Apple TV supported applications, it would have to have a full-fledged system. Now it only runs on a hacked and primitive version of the system on which it is based iOS. But the new Apple TV, known internally as the J34 prototype, includes a full-fledged iOS 9, adapted for the needs Apple TV. In addition, the company wants to release a functional and stable system and therefore decided to wait to announce the TV in the fall/autumn, since it will already have a tuned version available iOS ready for release. This is why she canceled her original plan to introduce Apple TV na WWDC.
The system itself will be similar to today's Apple TV, but it will go through some changes. First of all, it should look more like iOS, will live wallpaperua should be whiter. It actually looks similar to the concept pictured below. Among the most important news are: Siri, Proactive Assistant, and of course what we're all waiting for - the SDK for apps. The SDK itself should be aimed primarily at cable companies because Apple wants apps to focus primarily on video. The advantage is that TV companies will now be able to publish their own applications / stanive pre Apple TV, which they could not do until now. At the same time, this means that, for example, Nova, Markíza or JOJ will also be able to publish their application. In other words, konemore content for Czechs and Slovaks. Will it succeed? Apple TV even among game developers, he is still in the stars.
New hardware Apple TV but it is built for it. On the other hand, don't expect to play Metro 2033 or Tom Clancy Splinter Cell. Expect arcade games in the style of Angry Birds. Nevertheless, the hardware will be new Apple TV really decent By all accounts, it will be the dual-core A8 chip that debuted in iPhone 6. The transition to 64-bit architecture and two cores will be appreciated by developers who want to create more graphically demanding games. For an idea, games on Apple TV could look similar to on iPhone 6 Plus and that's because of the Full HD resolution. The question is the amount of RAM that will accompany the processor, but it seems that Apple it will use its conservative capacity of 1GB. And speaking of gigabytes, the new product will have at least 32GB of memory, and it is possible that multiple memory versions will be available, just as we expect. The current model contains 8GB of storage, which is not accessible to the user and is used only for cache and as a space on which the operating system is stored.
The remote control will also change. It will undergo a drastic change and will have more functions. First of all, it will have a touch screen and will support gestures, which was confirmed by multiple himself Apple in one of the last beta versions of OS X El Capitan, where this information was hidden in one of the internal files. The controller should also feature newer button handling, have a different look, and eventually may be backwards compatible with older hardware, as it includes an infrared sensor in addition to the Bluetooth antenna. The icing on the cake is that the controller should have a microphone, which would make sense given that Apple TV will support Siri and it's better to talk to the controller than to shout at the whole room just to tell you Siri she understood. It should also include a speaker, similar to the PS4 controller. However, it is interesting that the driver could include a 3.5-mm jack for connecting headphones for listening to music alone or streaming it from Apple Music.
At the same time Siri the system will feature an improved Proactive Assistant search, which is one of the main novelties iOS 9. Because there are dozens of content providers and developers can build Proactive into their apps, it's possible that this is how we'll find the movies we want to watch in Apple TV. For example, typing in the name James Bond would automatically show you all the results from iTunes Store, Netflix or even from Apple Music, if you want to listen to the soundtrack. But Apple can wait with this feature and will announce it later, after all, there are no pre apps available right now Apple TV.
Likewise, it appears that the premiere of a new service that could free users from cable TV and allow them to watch TV stations via Apple TV. Such a service requires more complex negotiations, and these seem to be much more complex than negotiations with music publishers, if only on the principle that TV stations have a stronger say than Apple. The company should introduce a service that will cost $40 a month and allow people to watch their favorite programs. Prototypes Apple TV however, they are ready for this function, which is understandable considering that Apple he needs to test the feature and he also needs to present it to TV companies so they have a better idea of what he has Apple in the plan. However, the service will not be launched until next year.
And finally, there is one report that could have been expected, but this should at least be taken as a confirmation. New Apple TV will receive a redesign and will apparently be lower than today's model, but will be a little wider. It will be the very first redesign in five years. However, it is very similar in design, so you should not expect it to be gold, glass or aluminum. Again, it will be a plastic device. The company should introduce him to the side iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s More.

Na Apple TV I'm really looking forward to it. As for the price of replacing the cable, $40 seems like a lot to me. In the US it will be a good alternative and price, but I don't see it much in Europe... Otherwise, thanks to Metal, I would expect slightly smoother games (hopefully TV OS will support 3rd party drivers like iOS and OSX). Regarding the redesign, I would like to see aluminum in all color combinations. I think it is quite likely considering that Apple these colors are quite pushing and wants to Apple TV It was revolutionary, so I think the material is better suited for it and it would also fit better into the portfolio...
petr: I rather think that Mronehut black color, let it match the furniture in the living room
I'm just afraid that it will be revolutionary only in the US, because I doubt that there will be any content for the Czech Republic. I have the latest model at home Apple TV and I found out that it's completely useless to me, it just collects dust and serves as decoration :)
It's not a remake Apple TV mainly because Apple HomeKit? I think the main part of the presentation isonein spirit HomeKitu.
Plex support would be great. And also faster wifi for smooth mobile game play. Yes, and pass through dts in the video.
Plex would be great, but only if it ran on the ATV itself and not on another computer.
Simonnek: if it has a classic iOS, anyone can write applications for it. So the only question is whether anyone in the Czech Republic will want to.
For example, it would be enough to motivate some IPTV operator to have an application made, and ATV can replace the set-top-box.
But it's a vicious cycle: until there's content available for it, people won't buy ATVs. And until ATV is widespread among people, developers and online service providers will have no incentive to make apps for it.
... and perhaps such a netbox has an application for watching TV on an iPad, rewriting it for ATV (and removing some of the restrictions that are in the iPad) might not be so much work.
...exactly UPC horizon
I have "all movies in" one "place" ... is something withance, that I will be able to help the new ATV stream movies from my Apple AirTime Capsule 802.11ac 2000GB port?
If it will AppStore for ATV, Plex support will definitely arrive (I would assume that PlexPass will be required) and HorizonGo will come soon, I think.
petrunkov: if applications will be available for download from AppStore, so theoretically it should work, because you will get access to network storage – get a Raspberry Pi 2 and turn it into a cheap server for sharing
