Apple TV 4K & LG Dolby Atmos Sound Bar Video Output Issues
Hi all, having a very irritating issue with my Apple TV 4K at the moment.
The Apple TV 4K is connected to the Soundbar (in port) with HDMI 2.0 Cable and then the exact same cable from ARC port on the soundbar to the TV's ARC port. When switching between apps i.e. Netflix, Music, Prime etc, the video output just disappears, and I get a "no input" from TV. Sometimes it comes back after a few seconds, other times I must reboot the Apple TV to get video signal back. This happens when just switching from one movie to another on Netflix as well.
Are there any special changes or setting that I need to change on the on the Apple TV? Currently it is set to SDR, Match Content & Frame Rate. Quick start is on in iTunes Movies and Shows.
I have already replaced both HDMI cables with certified HDMI 2.0 cables as per recommendation from the store.
When using the apps on the LG TV, this does not happen, thus it points to the Apple TV being the issue.

LG TV – 55SM8100PVA
