    Welcome to the Apple Community.

     

    • Check that the HDMI cable is correctly seated at both ends.
    • Try disconnecting the cable and connecting it again.
    • Try another HDMI cable.
    • Try the Apple TV with another TV

     

    Try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds, or resetting it using the reset option under general.
