When Apple introduced Apple TV 4, they also introduced beautifully filmed Aerial screensavers.
The one ring This freeware screensaver has been specially created for all the fans of The Lord of the Rings and J.R.R. If you liked the book or the movie, this screensaver will. The Ring app lets you see, hear and speak to anyone on your property from anywhere. Download the app today for iOS, Android, Mac and Windows 10 devices.
A setting in ATV allows it to check regularly for new ones and download them automatically. Only a few of them are downloaded at any given time, so check your settings for how frequently you want ATV to refresh your local copies.
In December 2016 Apple greatly expanded the list of Aerial screensavers. The table below has been updated to include all locations. When Day and Night views are available, Apple TV will cycle thru the appropriate ones based on your local time.
Notes:
- Screensavers shown are all those available on Apple servers;
- Some screensavers at Apple servers are repeated more than once; No duplicates are shown here;

| macOS Catalina compatibility or lack thereof |
| macOS Catalina 10.5.3 and earlier is not compatible with SaveHollywood. Things are working better on macOS 10.15.4. Starting with macOS Mojave, Apple apparently started sandboxing the Desktop & Screen Saver Preferences Pane. And, surprise, surprise, while doing that, Apple introduced new bugs. Among other things, this resulted in the standard open panel not working correctly any more in multiple cases. In macOS Catalina, Apple completely broke the standard open panel APIs when invoked from a screen saver. And, for the same price, they also introduced other issues. Working around this probably requires new APIs that are currently private and used only by Apple's own screen savers. Until either Apple fixes its bugs or provides access to the new APIs to 3rd party developers, there are no real workarounds to make macOS Catalina 10.5.3 or earlier compatible with SaveHollywood. |
What is SaveHollywood?
SaveHollywood is a Screen Saver module for OS X 10.8 or later. It lets you play movies when your Mac enters screen saver mode.
Movies, movies, movies, …
SaveHollywood lets you define which movies you want to be played. You can either add a movie or a folder of movies.
You can play:
- movies shot with your iPhone®, iPad® or iPod® touch.
- movie trailers (for example from the iTunes Movie Trailers website).
- training materials (for example: WWDC sessions, video podcasts, exported Keynote® documents)
- etc.
The Ring Two Screensaver For Macbook Air
You can sort movies manually so that they get played in the order you like or you can choose to play them in random order.For a list of compatible video formats, check the Technical specifications.
Multiple sizes to fit them all
You can choose to enjoy watching your movies either at their actual size or in fullscreen. You can also select to have the movie fit the screen to remove the top and bottom borders. Speaking of borders, you can add a virtual frame border around the movie if you wish too.
To make the public aware of which movie is currently being played, you can have the movie title and copyrights be displayed when the movie starts playing or you can periodically remind the audience of what they are currently watching.
Movies look usually better on a black background (when they are not sized either to fit or fill the screen), but if you want to use another background color, you can pick up the one you wish.
Silence is nice too
If you use this Screen Saver to display marketing information when the computer is not being used (similar to what you can see in Apple Stores), you may want to mute the audio of the movies. If you have a multiple-display configuration, listening to 2 or more movies at the same time can be confusing, so you can select to play the audio only for the movies on the main display.

If you have a multiple-display configuration and want the movies to be played only on one of them, you can select to play them on the main display only.
