Apple TV randomly fast forwards

My Apple TV 4K 32gb has started randomly fast forwarding with no one touching the remote. Once I stop it from fast forwarding, the play/pause button doesn’t work unless I exit the app I’m using and go back into it. I have restarted the device a few times and that hasn’t helped. Anyone else having this issue?

Hi there pangderx,


We understand you're experiencing an issue with content fast forwarding unexpectedly on your Apple TV.


Do you experience this with content in different apps, or only in one specific app on your device?


Also, do you control your Apple TV with any other remotes, such as the Apple TV Remote in the Control Center on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch?


Thanks!
