He’s referring to how you need an iPhone or iPad to set up the Apple TV; you can’t sign in to it without one. It’s an odd ‘overlook’ from Apple.Apologies, they did for an iCloud Update on Apple TV: https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/gadgets-news/apple-tv-users-may-need-an-iphone-or-ipad-to-accept-icloud-terms-and-conditions/articleshow/97063589.cms
You can absolutely set up an AppleTV with no other Apple device in your possession. It is a very good player for many things but much of this is dependent on your choice of application. For compatibility and no transcoding, Infuse is the best I’ve found, provided it’s pointed at a Jellyfin instance. Not a great choice just pointed at a local or cloud SMB share (though possible) as its cache gets cleared frequently.
AFAIK, Shield Pro remains the only option that can play back Atmos from ripped media, but would be happy to be corrected on this.
I get Atmos through Plex on the Apple TV no problem.
and you always hear good things about them. if it was a stand alone device it could easily be someones first apple product.
Yeah you shouldn’t need any other apple devices I don’t think
