Amazing, can’t wait to try this out!

On a similar note, I’d love to replace Aerials on tvOS with my own videos. I have yet to figure out how to craft a working data feed that the tvOS will accept using the secret mode that I believe is used in the retail store displays.

I suspect the retail stores are using autonomous single app mode, which allows an app deployed on an MDM managed device to take control and force itself to the foreground, disabling screen sleep and other things. I briefly did some reading around it recently when wondering about putting some sort of dashboard on my TV while idle.
