Only the Xbox 1708 Bluetooth controller works with Apple TV.

uh, i don't think you understand what an Apple TV is...
it's not a game system. it's like a Roku.

You need one of the later model Xbox One controllers that support both Bluetooth and the custom Xbox protocol.
The older ones might work, but only wired (with a micro USB cable). They can't work wirelessly since the AppleTV will only use Bluetooth, and even that's not guaranteed to work either.
