Apple TV 3 UI freezing and then rebooting after pausing a video on Youtube
Just updated my Apple TV 3rd gen to 7.6, when I noticed that pausing a YouTube video freezes the UI and makes the Apple TV reboot.
Any Help?

Hi all, there is a quick fix. If your ATV is version 3.1, grab a copy of the previous firmware here https://ipsw.me/download/AppleTV3,1/12H885.
The idea is to downgrade you Apple TV to v7.5 (Check your current installed firmware version by opening Settings, General, About. Ifyou're experiencing the YT pause-freeze problem, chances are you have v7.6 loaded.
Once you've got a copy of 12H885 (firmware v7.5 for ATV3.1), follow the steps below.
That’s it! Once you are done with all these steps, it means your Apple TV has been downgraded to the v7.5 (or whatever other IPSW you choose).
@Wengro, no video quality issues here (country Queensland, Australia). Definitely no green blocks. Not sure what's causing this. Pffft to buying a new device though. That sucks.
The last word was not a swear word !!! but something to do with what a vacuum cleaner does ...
Firmware should be offered on Apple’s website. 🤨
Not solved.
After downgrade to 7.5, the TV app is not working :/
👍😂
This really helped. The 3.1 version of the firmware didn't work for mine. But this 3.2 worked for me. Thank you for sharing this information!
So glad it helped you out! Cheers!!!
Thanks - done. Also referenced this thread.
Problem solved with 7.6.2
Look above! Problem is solved!
