My main ATV is having a HDMI-CEC issue that I’ve read could be a bug. Considering installing 26.6 to see if that fixes it. I have 26.6 on my iPhone 15 pro without issues but just curious about tvOS. Thanks
I’ve been chasing an odd startup behavior and have tinkering with settings to try and narrow down the cause.
I’m wondering how “auto” actually works. Does it check for the best method every time it starts up from standby or does it determine the best method and save that information for future startups?
If my TV supports CEC maybe best to select HDMI vs auto. That could, maybe, save startup time & stop the behavior I’m seeing. Initial testing showed it may have fixed it but I’ve had that indication before. Time will tell.
I’ve been chasing an issue where when turning my ATV on it wants to start up 3 times. I determined it was the ATV starting up not the C5 but it also seemed to be some kind of CEC thing. Today because I’ve run out of settings to change on both devices I switched the ATV to HDMI 3 and my BluRay player to HDMI one. At least so far the issue seems to be resolved.
I like that seems to be solved but confused as to why.
I’m having startup issues with my LG TV. And during the discussion I’m being told to connect the ATV to my one and only ARC port or the ATV will not turn the TV on. This confuses me. I have my soundbar connected to the ARC/eARC port and until recently the ATV has worked great on a non-ARC port. My dumb TV in the bedroom is still working great that way.
I’m trying to understand what ARC has todo with turning the TV on by turning the ATV on. ARC is for audio return to a sound system. Turning the TV on is a CEC function which is available on all HDMI ports.
We set our video preference to filmmaker and next time I check it’s set to standard. Why would it do that?
We’ve had our ‘26 Sport L for just about 6 months. Today, on our way to DMV ( MVD in Az ) the touchscreen ( and as it turned out ) the dash was so dim that it was unusable. I’m trying everything I can think of to get it back to normal brightness. Then all of a sudden it just got back to normal. I’m scratching my head what is going on here. We stopped at the post office then I restarted the car and DAMN IT the touch screen is dim again WTF. So after a bit I’m wondering if it has something to do with the headlights but the selector will not stay in the off position it just jumps back to auto. So now I’m thinking where is the day/night sensor? Then it dawns on me my bride has put the folders with our DMV paperwork on the dash, move the folders and everything is bright again and at that time I noticed the dash was also dim.
So now I know where the day/night sensor is but still don’t know why the headlight switch will not stay in the off position. Why have an off it it’s not available?
We have a 2026 CR-V hybrid Sport - L.
Yesterday took it to the dealer for its first service. Apparently they rotated the tires and adjusted the tire pressure because about 5 minutes after leaving the dealer we got a message on the instrument screen about checking tire pressures and recalibrating the TPMS.
Two questions:
Edit to add, since the answers / information is all over the place.
Scroll the thumb wheel on the right side of the steering wheel until you get to “Driver 1 settings “ the TPMS recalibration is in that menu. There is no “vehicle settings “ selection anywhere in any menu - on my 2026 Sport L.
I’ve seen/read lots of threads about picture modes and there lots of opinions and suggestions but those often include this mode for this situation and some other mode for some other situation. Why is it that watching a movie vs watching sports requires switching modes? Is there a “set it & forget it” that works without all the tinkering?
We live in a 43’ toy hauler ( 5th wheel RV ) setup permanently in Ft Mohave Arizona. I installed a 18K dual zone mini split because based on my research this would be a good size.
After having it for a couple of months I discovered I had a couple refrigeration leaks so had a HVAC guy out. He re-torqued all my flair fittings and fixed a leak at the refrigeration valves on the compressor. He then topped off the refrigerate and said when it gets really hot I may get an overheating error message once the outside temps get hot enough for the unit to start really working.
Temps are up over 100 and frankly this thing is not cooling like I think it should.
Before I spend the money on a service call is the a basic test I can run to see if maybe my mini split is just not big enough or if maybe I have an issue that an HVAC professional needs to fix.
Update to say the HVAC guy did check for leaks with his sonic leak detector and found none. There was one fitting he was concerned about because it would only tighten to the lower end of the torque spec.
Is there another setting somewhere other than under picture that would cause my C5 to switch back to auto power saver?
I have a 9 year old TCL Roku TV that is seldom used. We play Wii and my wife exercises to DVDs.
What I’m trying to do isn’t working.
I like to set the default input to the Wii since it’s not a HDMI device and I like the DVD player to wake up the TV and the TV switch to the HDMI input where the DVD player is connected.
The TV “finds” the DVD player when searching for CEC devices, I’ve enabled CEC controls and checked both check boxes under CEC controls.
But when turning the DVD player on it doesn’t turn the TV on. When turning the TV off it doesn’t turn the DVD player off. It’s almost as though my DVD player is not a CEC device. Am I doing something wrong or can I not do what I’m trying to do?
We live in Arizona and our kids live in the Sacramento area & are considering a move to Ohio for work. Just curious how comfortable the CRV is on long distance trips. And particularly how the hybrid works out as a “road” car.
I recently purchased a BluRay of the original Independence Day. It also came with a digital copy that is part of my Fandango at home library.
I noticed the digital version is 4K UHD and DD+. Since my BluRay is not 4K I would think the video quality would better on the Fandango version but is the audio still compressed? Would the surround sound be as good as the physical media?
It’s a well known fact that in an effort to prevent credential sharing YTTV identifies your home network based on IP address. So if after you set your home network your ISP randomly changes your IP address then according to YTTV you’re no longer connected to your home network. And you can only set your home network 3 times a month.
This is IMO a form of shadow discrimination against those of us with cellular &/or satellite ISPs.
Making the unlimited streams from the 4K or Sunday Ticket add ons practically useless .

We’ve only had our 2026 Sport L for a few months. I have a question for you seasoned owners.
When we first picked this car, after the salesman went through the display that little car was always on between the two gauges. I know it’s lane control information among other things and I’ve found that safety menu to decide which features I want to use but for some reason now every time we start the car that little car isn’t there and I like having it there. I can turn it on with the button on the right side of the steering wheel but I thought the salesman told me that button selected between two different modes of lane controls.
So is there a setting somewhere else that tells the little car to always be there?
My owners manual shows a different instrument display than what we have and Google comes up with all kinds of conflicting information.
I watch a lot of football. I ( will ) have Sunday ticket. I watch all day Sunday, every Sunday, including SNF. I watch MNF as well as TNF. I watch the international games too. ( yes I get up early on those Sundays. )
This year I’ll have a new OLED TV and a 5.1 surround sound system. I’m jazzed!!
So now the question: How good is the sound on YTTV when watching live?

Do all the zones share a system total refrigerant are are the zones separate?
In other words can one zone be low while the other is not?
I’ve had my Costway 18k mini split a couple of months now. A few weeks ago we had temps up and over 105° here and the mini split did just what it should. Now the last 2 days above 90° it just can’t seem to keep up. This morning I did the hand in front of the vent test and air felt as cold as it’s been but once the unit starts falling behind the same test has a slightly warmer air. Still very cool but not really cold. Checked the evaporators and don’t see any ice. Checked the app and inside temperature is showing warmer than set temperature by 2 to 3 degrees. As an experiment I’ve turned the set point down another 3 degrees to see if that changes anything.
What else can I check?
