You have a link? That's useful. Was contemplating going via DX.com - but this looks like a winner.

Also ordered one from dx.com - a month and still not here.

Maybe Ali express will be faster.

Just found the link.

Waited ages for my previous DX.com - but hey, it arrived, and *free* shipping, so no complaints my side. Will give AliE a go now - at this price, nothing really to lose.

Thanks! Went for this one - a bit more pricey, but seems to be decent quality. Will pop something up in 2017/18, when(if) it arrives. :p

Lol,funny thing is mine took only a week from the time it was dispatched from the seller to get to the Joburg Mail hub then it was stuck there for almost a month till it got to Cape Town last week and then i got it today.
 
Hi Peeps, I went through the thread quickly but didn't see that Siri is supported yet for SA even with the latest tvOS 10.1. I bought the ATV4 64GB last night and still trying to get it all setup.

You can use the Apple TV 4 with multiple Apple IDs as well as use separate ID's for the App Store and iCloud. That way you can get Siri as well access to both SA and US apps and still use SA's iCloud storage and Apple Music.

So the apps you've purchased in Store A, remain active when you switch the ATV4 app-store account to Store B? And vice versa?
 
Thanks. Will take a look at creating and adding a US Apple ID account.
 
New question, I enabled home sharing on the Windows PC and I am to view the media content on my ATV but it is not in sorted in folders. Any work around to get it sorted as it is on the PC and external drives? Offline TV series, go pro folders and etc becomes a bit much if all is just sorted into one long list.
 
It will be sorted as per your iTunes Library.

So you are already doing it wrong as that should be one folder in one location.

Rather just install Plex.
 
Thanks, Plex seems to be the answer. I have posted a question in the networking section to help me get the home network sorted.

If I sign into my US account I lose access to Apple Music even though I'm signed in with my local Apple ID for iCloud.

There are people who say it is possible but I haven't come across a method that works.

The add clearly says the remote was R1400,
That is the price of the new remote,

Old remote is 400 rand( old price) at istore!!!
Clearly false advertising!!
 
Says the deal is online only. Price is R490 on their website too. So maybe place the order through there.
