A ton of recordings are distributed on Facebook. Be that as it may, discovering recordings to watch is significantly more troublesome.
Which is the reason it's remarkable that the best arrangement I've seen for discovering incredible recordings on Facebook drops by method for Rheo, another application for Apple TV.
Rheo is the brainchild of Copper Studios, a startup established by Alan Cannistraro. Before going out all alone, Cannistraro put in 12 years at Apple, where he fabricated the primary iPhone application and was included with the first Apple TV at its soonest arranges. He joined Facebook in 2012 and drove the group that constructed its AutoPlay video highlight.
The objective with Rheo is to bring back the channel surfing background that existed in the pre-line cutting days, yet with the sorts of substance individuals expend now: recordings on the web.
When you open the application – which is free (simply seek "Rheo" on your Apple TV, tragically, Apple doesn't give engineers an approach to share URLs to applications) – video begins playing in a split second.
On the off chance that you like a clasp, you can keep watching it, or you can press a catch and go to another clasp. You can even utilize the a twist signal on the Siri remote to quick forward or rewind. When one clasp closes, another instantly begins.
What's critical about Rheo – at any rate to me – is that the majority of the video is sourced from Facebook. As far as anyone is concerned, this is the first run through Facebook's video API has been utilized as a part of along these lines.
What's more, there is huge amounts of video from Facebook from media organizations, web arrangement and even people. Rheo ingests the clasps from Facebook's API and after that serves them to clients.

You can simply begin watching – which is similar to channel surfing – or you can go to different "channels" which incorporate "snicker" (cleverness), "sparkle" (workmanship) "learn" (think TED talks), "illuminate" (news) and "chill" (music).
The thought behind the application is to really kick back and watch content without thinking about it
The more you utilize the application, the better it gets at comprehending what you need to watch. You can likewise give a video you truly (like John Oliver's most recent HBO rage) a "support" which will likewise present the clasp on Facebook, in the event that you've snared it to your record.
The age of the video cuts in Rheo relies on upon the channel. Snicker clasps may incorporate more interesting bits that you haven't seen or that stay evergreen, while news cuts for "educate" are all topped at around 24 hours. The thought is that you can go to a channel – or simply go to the application – and watch video.
Given his history at both Apple and Facebook, it's fascinating to see Cannistraro focus on an issue that both organizations are confronting in various ways: video disclosure.
There are various video disclosure applications for Apple TV, however none have Rheo's kick back-and-click-play claim. What's more, for Facebook, such an extensive amount the video distributed to the stage isn't even obvious to clients.
Rheo is accessible now for Apple TV.
