My Apple TV remote control turns the TV on but screen remains dark and does not show the Apple TV menu. It used to work before. Any tips ? My general settings for TV control ok. My TV is Insignia.
I was able to solve the issue with Insignia TV turning on but not showing Apple TV content. In Apple TV settings, just turned off control Tvs and receivers. Now Apple TV remote turns on Apple TV and TV shows content. Most likely the TV goes to sleep mode so faster to link to Apple TV again. Thanks all for your tips.

Some Thoughts:
Plug this Apple TV into a different video device. Plug a different device into the Insignia TV. If any issues, it’s connectivity the getting in the way here.
Plug this HDMI into an input port on the Insignia Television. Be certain you are selecting the correct port number. Try using a different HDMI cable if the connection is broken. Power on your Insignia TV, if there is not power to it.
Check with Insignia and see if they can do anything about this from their end. You would find a “Contact Us” link somewhere in the the “Help & Support” section or the bottom of Insignia’s Home Page.
To have the TV switch to the HDMI port of the connected and powered on set top box, is a function of HDMI-CEC. To make use of this functionality, the HDMI-CEC must be turned on on all HDMI devices that you want supported for this.
