Bought new remote. Light blinks but nothing happens.
The Apple TV box may acknowledge remote signals by blinking, while still ignoring the commands from remotes that aren’t paired (currently supported models) or linked (legacy models) to the box.
The latest model remote requires Apple TV HD (4th generation) or later (A1625 or later), with system software tvOS 15.4 or later installed. Apple TV remote models and their compatibility - Apple Support
