Apple Tv App Issues

I normally watch any Apple TV content via my Apple TV box but last night though to give Hijack2 a go via Glass.

Some content is in German and there were no English subtitles for this as standard.  I turned subtitles on but then had them for everything English and German content.

I switched to Apple TV and the German conversations were translated with subtitles as expected.

I'm guessing this is an app issue over Sky 🤔 but regardless it needs sorting.

As a side the picture quality via the Sky based app was also pretty shoddy whereas via Apple TV through Glass it was outstanding.

It's pretty well known (or at least I think it is!), that the bitrate used on an Apple TV for the app is far higher than on any other version, which usually results in a better picture no matter what the limitations of the hardware it is plugged into.
