With the new Apple TV 4K now in customers’ hands, some users are reporting issues when trying to control video with the redesigned Siri Remote.
Specifically, some users are complaining that using the circular gesture on the new clickpad ring to fast-forward or rewind paused video isn’t working as expected. Rather than scrubbing through video continually in the direction of the gesture, the video scrubs back and forth in opposite directions.

You should find this method works with Apple’s own apps, but we’ve found inconsistencies in its functioning with third-party apps, especially those that don’t use Apple’s native playback UI. For instance, it worked for us in Netflix, but the Disney+ app had persistent issues responding to the circular gesture.
