Wait. 500kb? Why does VLC allow GBs worth of chache when using remote play on their Apple TV app?

Apple TV is probably one of the best pieces of hardware to be emulating with…problem is capacity and no SD or USB slots!

Dont get used to it, Valve, Google and Apple allow emulators one month, then they don’t, then they are back again, then gone etc. Its a rollercoaster

Great video! Thanks for posting it. Apple actually tried to get Netflix to integrate with its TV app/universal search functionality so that when you search for a show or a movie, it will show you all the apps where you can watch that show or movie, including Netflix. But Netflix has steadfastly refused to do so. So this is on Netflix, not Apple. It’s not for a lack of Apple trying.

Same with Spotify. They claim Apple undercuts their music service, yet they actively choose not to make their service work on HomePods via voice control.
That’s on you, Spotify. ????

TIL that you can get ROMs in other ways than dumping yourself or getting a pirated version.

Hahaha normal people discovering how simple (ok simplish) setting up emulators are and then further finding legal means to purchasing ROMs. Thanks Sega for selling the ROMs, wish more companies did this. FYI I believe you can buy Atari ROMs as well. MagPi has an article about this as well as there is a pinned post in the Retropie forums if anyone wants to purchase ROMs. ethically.

I believe Netflix not being integrated with Up Next and Search on Apple TV is Netflix’s choice. It’s the only streaming service I use that doesn’t integrate so it ends up being backburnered for me a lot. I tried moving the app to the dock so most recently watched items would show up if I go to the app screen and highlight it but it still ends up a little out of sight, out of mind when all of the other stuff I’m watching automatically pops new episodes etc up in the Up Next section.

Netflix refuses to allow integration of its content into platforms like Apple TV or Google Chromecast. They want to force their subscribers to spend time finding content within their own app. It’s Netflix’s fault, not Apple on this one.

I’m just now finding out steam sells roms. ????… Not that I plan to buy any from there but it’s good to know they are there if I can’t find them elsewhere. ????…
As for apple loosening their grip on emulation, I think once they realize they’re not making any money from it and big wigs like Nintendo asks them nicely to remove a “particular app” then Apple will rethink their decision…it’s just a matter of time, wait for it.

The Netflix issue is 100% the fault of Netflix. Netflix won’t share its data with Apple TV.
