It actually updated sometime after we got it connected. That may also have been what caused the Siri voices to appear.Cheers,DonnaSent from my iPhoneOn Feb 28, 2023, at 5:05 PM, Raymond Foret Jr  wrote:Do you have the latest version of the software, if so, you just need to look down far enough but they are there all under "Siri".

Do you have the latest version of the software, if so, you just need to look 
down far enough but they are there all under "Siri".

Re: Is it possible to get the American Siri voices on latest gen 4K Apple TV?

2023-02-28 Thread 'Donna Goodin' via MacVisionaries 
Hi everyone,

Not sure why, but it worked this morning.  After seeing Ray’s message, I 
decided to give it another try, and this time the Siri voices were there.  We 
had just hooked it up when I tried on Saturday, so maybe that had something to 
do with it.
Cheers,
Donna

Yes it is.  Be aware, however, that if you switch to the US Siri voices, and 
you try to click on Amazon prime video, it will switch back to the Samantha 
voice for the duration you're using prime video.  When you switch back to 
anything else, you will be back to the US Siri voice you chose.  That's why on 
my Apple TV, my Mac and my Iphone, I use the US enhanced Nathen voice.
