Apple TV was working fine. We had a brief power outage (less than 5 minutes) and now I'm getting the HDCP error message. How do I fix this? I've tried resetting, unplugging HDMI, unplugging the Apple TV unit and nothing is working.

Try a different cable, if you have another TV test there as well.
Tried switching cables - didn't help. I also restarted the Apple tv and that didn't help either. Could it be a problem with my Internet connection (due to power going out)?
It may be a result of the power outage, try a restore
Tried restoring and resetting. Found a suggestion from Apple support to put the Apple TV to sleep, then turn to off for 10, then turn everything back on. Still not working. I agree that it has something to do with the power outage - there has to be an easy way to get it working again!!
What TV are you using (Brand, model #)
It may be hardware based, take it to Apple
The Apple TV worked when I tried it on a different television. Looks like the power outage messed up the settings on my Sharp tv, and knocked out all of my HDMI ports. Just managed to get it working again!
