We just had this happen today, and we were able to fix it using the restart instructions:

Restarting your Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation) with an aluminum Apple Remote
Press and hold Menu and Down (buttons 3 and 4 below) on your aluminum Apple Remote for six seconds and then release when you see the LED light on the Apple TV flash rapidly.

Hope this helps!!
