questions for apple tv installation
#1
Hello, i have installed kodi on my apple tv, along with the arctic horizon 2 skin but i have alot  of questions
1 - is it possible to have kodi open directly to a specific addon? without having to open it manually?
2 - how do i navigate the player? pressing play just shows the bar, left and right seeks, and up and down changes the volume, i cant change the subtitles or anything
3 - is there a way to sync kodi with the apple tv app? so all my currently playing/up next movies and shows show up in that app and open in kodi? (i know its most likely not possible, but just wondering)
4 - what are the best qol addons to install? right now it works for what i want it to do but i was wondering if i could make it better
5 - is there a way to have it use the native apple tv player?
appreciate everyones support, thanks

also, is there a way to have it change the tvs framerate and resolution when playing the video instead of at launch?

1) You mean that same specific add-on in your previous thread that we don't support? It's a little obvious, don't you agree?
2) See https://kodi.wiki/view/Keyboard_controls
3) You'd need a common database storage for both Kodi and Apple. Perhaps Plex or Trakt is an option.
4) You need to first know what isn't working for you in order to improve it
5) You can define an external player in Kodi. We don't have an example (yet) for Apple TV player AFAIK.

Framerate yes, but not the resolution. Go to Settings / Player / Videos / Playback / Adjust display refresh rate and use "On Start/Stop".
