Ant+ PM to ATV ?

Is it possible to pair an Ant+ power meter to Zwift on Apple TV via the companion app on an android phone with just a USBC connection socket?

Not a killer if not just I'm sure my PM is more accurate than my wheel in trainer - plan to upgrade to a wheel off in time but if there was a workaround in the short term?

Thanks

    I think it is BT only.
    I guess if you can connect to your phone and stream to the ATV from there it would work?
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    Yes that's what I'm thinking but I'm not techy enough to know if that's an option. Is there something that would allow my phone to pick up an ant+ signal and could I then use the spare Bluetooth channel on ATV to pair to the phone maybe via the Zwift companion app?

    Two simple things to check.
    Does Zwift on your phone show your power output?
    Can your phone stream to your TV/ATV?
    Good to go if yes to both.

    Keep it simple. Use your phone as the controller and the ATV is simply a receiver/display. Using multiple apps and signals is likely to get messy.
    I'm fortunate that everything is BT for me so I just use BT in an app on my ATV.
