Green tint

Suddenly, my Apple TV 4K has developed a green tint on all Apple TV setting screens as well as Apple TV app menu screens. If the screen is supposed to be white, it has a green tint. This is not on any other app, and elsewhere the whites are as crisp as ever. But when I go to Settings, the screens all have this green tint


It’s the same when I go to Apple TV.


But when I’m on other apps, the whites are white.


I have restarted the device 2x, and it has had the same HDMI cord for a couple of years. My tvOS is up to date as well. Can you help?

I would first shut down, then unplug and re-plug in the HDMI cable. If that does not work then unplug the Apple TV from it's power source for 2-3 minutes then plug back in and retest. If that does not work, try another HDMI cable, they do fail on occasion.

This is a recurring problem and is unrelated to any HDMI cords. Have tested all components. It's a software/ compatability issue that I've yet to see a solution for. For me the tint is perfectly fine. Then I start streaming a show on Netflix. While the Netflix scroll bar (where you can scroll through the show) shows the color is good. As soon as it disappears the screen takes on a deep green tint. Have changed out adapters, cables, have cleaned all the ports. Have updated to latest OS. Out of trouble shooting options at this point.
