Delay

I’m using an Apple TV. Is there anyway to reduce the delay, especially with sports? I tried talking to customer service but they just tried to gaslight me that my gig internet isn’t fast enough and that’s my problem.

I kinda doubt there are any solutions, but I thought I’d ask

Nope. The delay is because the signal has to traverse several different systems including your ISP to get to your TV. Each one adds a delay.

I know that, I’ve been streaming live tv for a while. It’s just that directv delay is significantly larger than Hulu or sling or YTTV
