Apple 4K wont stay connected

i have an Samsung 4K Smart TV, every time I use my blue ray player, my Apple TV will periodically disconnect from the TV. I get a message that says its not connected, then it magically reconnects. To fix this I have to reset the Apple TV, is there a way to avoid this whole process?

Apple TV 4K Disconnects After Replacing It Three Times My question is, why are so many people having this problem with an Apple TV 4K? I've gone through three of them in two months; I'll be watching a video for about 20 minutes; for example, the video cuts out saying, "Unable to locate Signal, or Signal mode Not Supported. I spent $40.00 on a new high-end HDMI cable still it cuss out. I think the solution here is to get a Roku. So, my question is, why hasn't Apple fixed this issue? I think it has to do with the design of the Apple TV Device. Any ideas? Note: I went to the Apple store to pick up the third replacement told the tech that there's a 90% chance it will fail, and sure enough, it did fail. Any ideas?

Samsung TV 4K UHD (A7000U) Apple TV Problem Hi everyone I’m in a bit of a pickle here. I have a Samsung UHD 4K 55” inch TV (AU700) 2021 model and I’ve recently bought myself the latest Apple TV 4K Wi-Fi model. The problem: My tv supports native HDR10+ and 4K, however whenever I play content it loses its connection and the tv tells me check HDMI connection. Before it does the whole blue screen of death and disappointment. It first glitches black and then a little annoying circle appears. It than loses its connection and I have to switch off the tv and on again. It specifically does this with YouTube most of the time but Disney plus and and Netflix is in it too. Any solutions that I might be able to use to fix it from doing this all the time ?

Apple TV disconnecting from tv Hello, when turning my Apple TV gen 4 on it will automatically connect through HDMI to the tv. After maybe 2 seconds it will disconnect like it can not find the input and my tv screen will go back to connect a device. This will happen like 4 times before it finally will connect and stay on the Apple TV and is usable. I have gone through every setting I can think of, changed HDMI cables and it still does it. I’m stumped.
