Apple TV 3rd Gen YouTube errors

Hi, recently I am unable to watch certain music related YouTube videos through my Apple TV 3rd Gen (A1469). I’ve not changed anything other then restarted it thinking it may fix the fault. All other iOS devices play the content fine. Any ideas?

AppleTV, suddenly not able to load youtube videos that used to play. Apple TV on youtube app, had lot of favorite (meaning which were played before) music videos. suddenly stopped ,not being able to load. Reset to factory settings, updated software, tried disconnecting and reconnecting hdmi cables, still not loading. Many other youtube videos on its home page still play , but the videos mostly music, when on "search" option of appleTV youtube app, lists them,however when selected to play, not able to load anymore with the error "Error Loading Content". The same video, an iphone can search in safari on youtube site, and can be airplayed from iphone to appleTV. the same videos were played without issues until two days before from AppleTV.
