v1.0.0 beta release Pre-release
Pre-release

Beta version that works with tvOS 15. Requires Python 3 to work!

On launch, this program will run python3 -m pip install -q --user websockets pyatv to install the dependencies needed for the server component of this program to run.

If this doesn't start properly, search for where wsserver.py is either in AppData or Application Support. If you create a file called skip_file_write in that directory, this program will stop creating the server files every time at launch, meaning you can modify the files to try to get things running. The goal is to be able to run start_server.sh or start_server.bat and successfully start the server component of this program. Try running those scripts directly and report any errors you are seeing.

Also note that this does take a little longer to start than the previous version. Once it's up and running it should work similarly to the previous version.

0.9.8

This release will hopefully work for some of the people who weren't able to start the previous release.

Windows version

Download ATV Remote Setup 0.9.8.exe. It is a one-click installer that doesn't require admin rights. It should start after it's installed, if you don't see anything check the tray icons, the remote icon should be in there.

macOS version

The file ATV.Remote-0.9.8-universal.dmg runs natively on both M1-powered Macs and Intel-based Macs. Great! But because the application contains both Intel and ARM versions of the application, it's much, much larger.

If you want a smaller version (which is admittedly still pretty big, but that's electron.js for you) get either:

  • Intel-based Macs: ATV.Remote-0.9.8.dmg
  • ARM-based Macs (M1): ATV.Remote-0.9.8-arm64.dmg

Please create an issue if you have a problem running this. Thanks!

0.9.7

This is the version I've been using for a while, it should work on macOS and Windows.

Update: added ARM64 builds for Macs running on M1 processors.
