Hi there! I understand you're seeing just a blank screen when opening the UHF app on your Apple 4K TV. I'd like to help you get this sorted out. To start, could you please clarify a couple of things for me?

1. Which version of the UHF app are you using on your Apple 4K TV?
2. Has the app ever worked properly on this TV before, or is this the first time you're trying it?
3. Have you tried restarting the Apple TV or reinstalling the UHF app?
4. Is your Apple TV running the latest tvOS version?

Knowing these will help me provide the most relevant troubleshooting steps tailored to your situation. Looking forward to your reply!

Using ver. 1.61.1

Thanks for sharing that you're using UHF app version 1.61.1 on your Apple 4K TV. That's helpful.

Based on what I know, version 1.61.1 of the UHF app is one of the stable IPTV player releases supporting Apple TV along with iPhone, iPad, and Mac devices. A key feature is syncing your setup across devices, but there have been occasional reports of playback issues or freezes, though nothing specific about blank screens on Apple TV1.

To troubleshoot the blank screen issue, here are some steps suited to your Apple TV running tvOS (assuming it's updated):

1. Restart the Apple TV:
- On the remote, press and hold the TV and Menu buttons until the light on the Apple TV blinks.
- Alternatively, unplug the Apple TV power plug for 30 seconds and plug it back in.

2. Force Quit and Reopen the UHF App:
- Double press the TV/Home button, swipe up on the UHF app to close it, then reopen.

3. Check for UHF App Update:
- Sometimes updating the app fixes bugs. On Apple TV, go to App Store > Purchased > Updates and see if there's a newer version than 1.61.1.

4. Reinstall the App:
- Delete the UHF app and reinstall it fresh from the App Store.

5. Verify Network Connectivity:
- Ensure your Apple TV has a stable internet connection. Try streaming something else or check network settings.

6. tvOS Update:
- Check System Settings > Software Updates to ensure your Apple TV runs the latest tvOS version.

If all of these don’t resolve it, there might be a specific compatibility or software bug that needs addressing in later updates, or it could be a playlist or streaming source issue within the app.

Could you let me know if you've tried some of these steps already or if the app shows any loading spinner or error messages before going blank? That would narrow down the issue further.

Work fine til today, I’ve done reset of Apple , restart my network, all other apps,on Apple work.

Thanks for the details! Since the UHF app was working fine until today and you've already reset the Apple TV and restarted your network—and other apps on the Apple TV still work properly—we can rule out general device or connectivity issues. That’s good info.

Here are some next steps specifically focusing on the UHF app:

1. Reinstall the UHF App:
Sometimes app files can become corrupted after a reset. Delete the UHF app completely from your Apple TV and then reinstall it from the App Store. This often clears out any problematic cached data or configuration glitches.

2. Check UHF Server Status or Updates:
Sometimes the service itself or app backend may have an outage or a bug affecting playback on Apple TV. While your other devices may be fine, Apple TV apps sometimes behave differently. If you’re a pro subscriber, you might want to check any official announcements or user forums like the UHF Reddit community to see if others are facing the same issue recently1.

3. Try a Different Network:
Even though your network has been restarted, if possible test the Apple TV on a different network (like a mobile hotspot) to rule out any network filtering or DNS issues affecting UHF app streams.

4. Look for tvOS Updates:
Double-check that your Apple TV’s tvOS is fully up to date (go to Settings > System > Software Updates). Some app compatibility issues are resolved with system updates.

5. Check App Permissions:
Occasionally, after device resets, app settings need re-authorization, especially for access to network or system resources. While Apple TV doesn't have a heavy permission system for apps, double-check app settings or account login status within the UHF app.

If after reinstall and checking server status the problem persists, it may be worth reaching out to UHF support directly, as it could be a more technical issue tied to your account or app version on tvOS1.

Would you like detailed steps on deleting/reinstalling the app, or help checking the tvOS version? How does that sound?

I don’t think it has anything to do with Apple like I said all other apps are working .

Got it, you’re confident it’s not an Apple device issue since all other apps work fine on your Apple TV. That’s an important clue, and it suggests the problem is tied specifically to the UHF app itself or the way it’s interacting with your account or settings.

Here are some troubleshooting tips focused on the UHF app that don’t involve Apple hardware or system bugs:

1. Disable Private Relay or VPN Services:
If you use Apple’s Private Relay feature (part of iCloud+ for enhanced privacy) or any VPNs on your network or device, these can sometimes interfere with UHF’s streaming service, causing blank screens or loading issues. Try turning off Private Relay on your Apple ID settings or disconnect any VPNs and test the app again2.

2. Server or Account Issues:
Occasionally, the UHF backend or streaming sources may have selective problems affecting the Apple TV app but not iPhone or iPad. You might want to check if UHF’s official support or forums mention any outages or account-related blocks, especially if you're a subscriber1.

3. App Specific Playback or Format Issue:
Sometimes the streams or playlists you use may include content that Apple TV can't decode properly but works on other devices, resulting in blank or black screens. Try switching to a different channel or playlist within UHF if possible, and see if that changes anything.

4. App Cache or Configuration Glitches:
Since you’ve reset your Apple TV, also try uninstalling and reinstalling the UHF app to clear any corrupted data the app might be storing locally.

If none of these steps helps, the issue may be on UHF’s end or related to your subscription or playlist details. In that case, contacting UHF’s support directly would be the next best step2.

Would you like guidance on disabling Private Relay or checking specific streaming playlists? Or perhaps help with the reinstall process on your Apple TV? Let me know how you want to proceed!

It’s a pain to delete and reinstall with 5 different servers.

I totally understand that deleting and reinstalling the UHF app when you have five different servers set up can be quite a hassle. Managing multiple servers and playlists within the UHF app can indeed become cumbersome, especially when troubleshooting.

From what I gathered, users have encountered similar challenges around server management and app stability on Apple TV with UHF1.

Here are some tips and options to make managing multiple servers easier and possibly avoid reinstalling every time:

1. Export and Backup Your Server List/Playlists:
Before doing any reinstallation, check if the UHF app on Apple TV or your other devices allows you to export or back up your server configurations and playlists. This way, you can quickly re-import them after reinstalling without having to manually add five servers again.

2. Use UHF Server Companion App:
UHF offers a companion server app (called "UHF Server") designed to help you manage IPTV recordings and possibly your server setups more smoothly. Using this companion solution on your Mac or a local server might streamline your server management across all devices8.

3. Check for App Updates Providing Better Server Management:
Sometimes newer versions include features that improve playlist and server handling or fix bugs causing issues with multiple servers. Make sure your Apple TV app is the latest version.

4. Contact UHF Support for Account-Specific Solutions:
Some account or playlist issues causing blank screens with multiple servers may require backend assistance. Reach out to UHF support for advice specific to your account and server setups—they may have tips or tools to manage servers more efficiently and resolve blank screen problems without a full reinstall3.

5. Temporarily Disable Some Servers:
If possible, try disabling or disconnecting one or two servers temporarily to see if one is causing the blank screen issue. This isolated testing might help identify if a particular server or playlist is problematic.

If you want, I can guide you through exporting your playlists, using the UHF Server app, or contacting support. Let me know what you’d prefer!

How to update the UHF app?

Great question! To update the UHF app on your Apple 4K TV running tvOS 10.15.7, here’s a simple step-by-step guide:

1. Open the App Store on your Apple TV:
Navigate to the App Store icon on your Apple TV home screen and open it.

2. Go to the Purchased or Updates section:
- Scroll to the right to find “Purchased” or if you have an "Updates" section visible on the sidebar, select that.
- This will show you the apps installed or available for update.

3. Find the UHF app:
Locate UHF – Love Your IPTV in the list. If there’s an update available, you will see an “Update” button next to it.

If you don’t see an update available for UHF in the App Store, you might already be on the latest version. In that case, any ongoing issue could be due to server or app-specific bugs that might require contacting UHF support9 7.
