A:AnswerNo, but if nothing else the AppleTV works with Ir remotes. You can train it to accept input from basically anything. You can use am iOS device as a remote too, which could be handy to program an Ir remote.
A:AnswerNo Cords Included. The power cord is included, but you will need an HDMI Cable for your TV and a CAT5/6 if you hard wire it, it does have WiFi. I highly recommend Apple TV
A:AnswerUp to 60hz. Also supports 24 FPS if your tv supports that for 24fps content like a lot of films.
The newer model at have some better capabilities, but doesn’t seem to do anything better for my setup.
A:AnswerYou can stream purchased stuff over the internet, or from iTunes p/Windows/MacOS, or an iPhone/iPad, but I don’t think it stores stuff locally, I think it pulls if from another local device or the internet.
A:AnswerIt was when you asked the question. They’re about to release a second gen AppleTV 4K now though, with an updated remote (and two years newer hardware)
A:AnswerMain unit is always plug in therefore it always has power. The remote has a rechargeable battery built in. Once it is fully charged, it will last a long time before needing to be recharged. I wish more companies would include a rechargeable battery with their product instead of two AA batteries.
A:AnswerYes, you can airplay from you iPad/phone to any device through the AppleTV. But, if you're streaming IPTV content through your phone, you can just download the ap and stream directly.
