Apple TV 4K Black & White

My Apple TV is displaying black and white picture instead of color. I have unplugged and replugged in the HDMI cord and reset the Apple TV box. I'm not sure what else to try? Anyone? Thanks!

That would mean either a poor Internet connection or a poor quality HDMI cable. Please start by doing:


1.     Unplug your modem from its power source and Restart Modem.

2.     Unplug your router from its power source and Restart router.

3.     Unplug Apple TV from Power for 2-3 minutes – re-plug in and retest.
