ESPN causing me to frequently restart my Apple TV 4th gen
I bought an Apple TV 64 GB 4th gen in 2018. Over the last 2 months, it seems to be breaking down. To fix the issues, I have been restarting the Apple TV, almost daily. I’m not sure if the hardware is the problem. How do I troubleshoot this?
Over the last 2 month, ESPN app:
- Won’t multicast games in ESPN+. When I try to play multiple games simultaneously, the app goes back to the home page. Sometimes it tells me the games are no longer available
- Sometimes it does this while trying to watch a single game.
- The problem is also happening on a second 4th gen box
- I only watch MLS on ESPN, and the problem seems coincidental with Apple announcing its long-term deal with MLS.
Netflix, Amazon and HBOMax scroll poorly, i.e. the movie icons don’t appear, just black boxes.
Thanks for any help,
