How do you put video files into an Apple TV Hard drive for viewing

Apple TV comes with 32 or 64 GB storage. How do you get content into it? AirDrop would be nice, but I don’t think that’s available. Can you connect it to a computer, or stick a jumó drive on it to copy files over?


Amy way to do this?


Thanks very much.

The Apple TV is a streaming device, period. You cannot download and store content for viewing on it at all. The storage is for apps and app related data. No files of any kind can be downloaded to it.
