There is nothing special about using a (4K) HDMI switch with Apple TV 4K. If it is not defective, it should work.

  • For commercial content, you will need to look for HDCP support. For 4K, that means HDCP 2.2. This is an essential feature. Skip models that do not specify this.
  • Don’t try to use a splitter as switch, or vise versa.
