Hi, I tried to control an apple TV with a lintronic box, but it doesnt do the smooth scrolling etc. I also found the 8-32 STB-C not quite right either. What I did in the end was on the Apple TV, use the learn remote option and set the STB to something else - cant remember which one I used, but basically you learn a different set of commands to the Apple TV and it works fine - you also get to choose which buttons you assign - although up down left right and go are pretty standard but I used yellow for exit as it is next to the others.
I have had issues some times.
Once I simply needed to make sure the PUC's was correctly positioned over the Apple TV's "eye"
The other time I was rearrange wiring etc, and I believe I damaged something in the PUC's cabling - so I had to swap that PUC out and use one from another BV.
So intermittent failures (e.g. missing a key stroke, some slowness (not quite 3 seconds per stroke !)) all addressed better placement or replacement.
I use PUCs on ATV2 and ATV3 boxes, and I have BV8-32 and BV8-40.
