The same H265 encrypted Fairplay content can be played in all Apple devices except A1625. The clear H265 content is played in A1625.
The question is: will this model (A1625) support H265 Fairplay encrypted content?

The AppleTV 4th doesn't have an hardware HEVC decoder, so decoding HEVC is limited to software, maybe there isn't enough CPU power to decode it when FairPlay DRM is used, or there is some arbitrary check that disables it.
@WZhou is this before or after tvOS26? I have seen that the CPU usages byt just idling in a view has raise from 40 % to around 120% after the tvOS26 update. We can still play fairplays content but we see that Apple TV downscale it so it get pixilated.
