The voice controls are for the cable box only. It's not going to be able to properly control apps on a tv set.
The funny part about all this is that the Apple TV app works using another contour voice activation remote control on my tv downstairs .
You have to read the entire post.
According to the link "See more voice commands" on the following page, voice responds to "Netflix" and "YouTube." It also reads like OP has successfully launched AppleTV in the past and Contour initiates the command.
@bruce thanks but I clicked the link and I see the “more commands “ option but not sure what you mean by “on the following page, voice responds to "Netflix" and "YouTube." It also reads like OP has successfully launched AppleTV in the past and Contour initiates the command” ? What does OP stand for ?
Hello @darkatt the remote control does not work when speaking or hitting button to get to Apple TV + . All other apps work when speaking or hitting button .
And it's on a DIFFERENT TV than the OTHER voice controller, right? Like I said earlier, the voice controller is designed primarily to control the cable BOX, and is not going ot PROPERLY control apps on the TV. That's not to say it won't work, but it may not work on ALL tv's and all apps.
You said the apple app starts up then the TV goes blank. That could be a problem with the Apple tv app itself on the tv.
Additionally, Netflix and Youtube are apps that are on the CONTOUR box.
