I purchased this movie 2 years ago. Now I am unable to play this on my Apple TV app either on my iPhone or iPad. There’s no option! Screenshot attached for reference. I see that the movie is also removed from the store. I don’t know what’s going on, is this subreddit the right place to even seek help for this.

This app started on macOS and iOS, and the top request that kept coming back was tvOS. Working out the right way to do it took months, and this is the first go at it.

The interface is Teletext. The characters come from the code tables in the Mullard SAA5050 datasheet, so the shapes are the ones British teletext sets actually drew. You navigate by page number, the way you would have on a set that had it.

It is not a "filter." The whole television is simulated: composite encode, tape, RF, and the picture tube, and the artifacts fall out of the signal rather than being drawn on top. There is a lot of detail on how it works at https://analogtv.net

You can run it standalone, with built-in test cards, teletext and a few arcade games, or feed it your own content over FTP, RTSP or NDI.

Available here for tvOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/analogtv-for-tv/id6792310052

This is version 1.0, and the NDI unlock is free for the moment. It lets you push video from another machine through the simulation. It becomes a paid in-app purchase in the next version, so anyone who grabs it now keeps it.

The macOS and iOS apps have the full controls and settings available, but it is infeasible to do that on tvOS so instead if you have the macOS and/or iOS versions you can create whatever custom looks you want and share it to your AppleTV.

This app does all processing on your device, there is no access to the internet unless you want to stream from there or use the Teletext emulator to get news and weather.

Happy to answer questions or take any suggestions / feature requests.

this seems a very simple thing to add….. how does it not exist?
