Be able to turn off the swipe feature since most people who use the remote get mis-swipes when trying to click the big button
Always play HDR correctly instead of messing up the color channels

For #2, this started after an OS update. It worked fine before. Now, HDR starts playing with messed up color channels (black looks magenta). If I shut off the AppleTV and turn it back on and resume playing, the channels are fine. Also, occasionally, it will just give static and make popping noises. I can’t find any setting that would fix this.

You can turn off swipe on the remote:

Go to Settings > Remote and Devices > Click Pad

Set it to “click only.”

Now you use the directional buttons, and the center is just a button. Use triple-clicks on arrows for some things, like closing apps.

I feel like the new update has fixed the swiping issue for me though. It feels like it has better “brakes”. Might just be my imagination though.
