Apple TV crippled my Horizon

Just an informative post in case someone may experience the same.

Yesterday my Horizon stopped responding to remote control input.

Unplugged it and plugged it in again but same result.

It would come on just showing the Apple TV connected to it but otherwise unresponsive.

Once it even just kept rebooting.

Left it off for minutes, and hour and even over night. No difference.

Then I unplugged the Apple TV and the Horizon was back to normal.

Grateful I don’t need to replace the TV I will go and buy a new Apple TV

Maybe just rebooting the Apple TV will solve the issue?

It was rebooted along with the Horizon but didn’t try and independent reboot.

But given the effect it had on the Horizon I’m reluctant to re-attach it at all and prefer to go for a new one.

I doubt it is your AppleTV which is failing. The Android TV OS on Horizon is not great to say the least. So before buying a new Apple TV I would suggest you try to connect it again. Can you connect it to another tv somewhere first?

I will give it a try on another tv and another Apple TV on the Horizon a try as well and see how it works out

I was admittedly unable to reproduce the error. Damn, I hate when an error is solved by mystery…

The mystery is called Android TV OS version s@#t which is on the Horizon. Expect strange errors and rest assured a complete power reboot will fix (almost) everything
