Optimizing Apple TV for the Media Player 

The Apple TV senses the attached TV/monitor and usually does a good job of selecting the correct 
settings. That said, there are a few settings that can optimize the performance and response to a 
variety of incoming stream properties. So, 

let’s 

look at the 

Video and Audio Settings

.  

 

Click the Settings button and select the 

Video and Audio

 item from the 

Settings menu to open the Video and Audio menu (image below).
