Live PIP dual view has been discussed on this board hefore- the channels devs didn't think it was doable
Instead of that how about a "quick channel" change button allowing you to one button switch between two channels
You could be watching a game on Fox, switch over to CBS to check, n another game, then switch right back
That already exists at least on Android double tap pause play.
Well, Christmas came early for me ! Thanks!
Works Great
Been using channels for 6 years and didn't know it existed
We should start a thread on the little known gem in channels!
Do you mean like the official support articles where this feature is documented? (Other subsections give details about keyboard shortcuts, which can often be mapped depending upon your remote control, too.)
In my letter to Santa this year, I am requesting individual accounts for family members in Channels.
I know... As @Jay1987 mentioned earlier...
The support article shows the previous gen AppleTV remote, but I just wanted to chime in that this shortcut works on tvOS as well. Extremely handy!
One Christmas wish is for the AppleTV client to be able to collapse, or temporarily hide, the Channels Collections column in the guide, in order to maximize screen real estate, so that more listings can be displayed. Kinda like how it is on the AndroidTV client. Visually speaking, at least.
Better yet, provide a toggle to show/hide that column, directly in the guide. The current toggle for this, in Settings, is used quite often here, it just feels a bit buried down too deep to be convenient.
Happy holidays to all, and to all, a good night.
All I want for Christmas is the ATSC 3.0 non-DRM channels that used to work, to work again.
I want an actual fix to the audio driver to make HomePods as default speakers actually work correctly with pip.
I still want Trakt integration. They now integrate with a few of the streaming services (Netflix, Hulu, Prime only for now).
Beat me to it. Only thing that has kept me with JF
Legacy driver seems to be working okay for me.
Had to force close the app to get it to work though.
Thanks, I’ll give that a try again.
It’s so fastidious and annoying after all these years, but hey Plex integration is here!!! Yay 
Unlimited remote shortcuts. Right now it’s limited to 4. But sofabaton can send more F# keys.
So why not have it unlimited? However many custom keys I can make in the sofabaton app UI.
Add toggling the information overlay as an action that can be mapped to a function key (color button).
Multi view
Let me create a single multi view channel with 2,3, and/or 4 streams by adding my desired channels server side from my sources. Then it outputs that stream to my designated channel number I choose. Make it easy to swap out channels in the stream server side but the multi view output is always on the same channel number the user selects.
I would like to have DRM support for Channels plus maybe build in the functionality for users so they don't have to install all the programs.
Just an FYI
Legacy driver + surround sound off in channels settings + wireless audio sync in Apple TV settings
Don’t think I mentioned surround sound off before, turned it back on the other day and caused some issues for me.
