Apple TV 4K (2021) YouTube video play delay

Just recently I’ve started experiencing about a half second video delay when playing a YouTube video via the YouTube app. The sound will come through first and the video slightly afterward. This was never the case a few weeks ago but I can’t seem to fix it.

I’m running tvOS 15.6 and the latest version of YouTube. I’ve tried switching up cables, ports, and deleting the YT app. I haven’t done a hard reset for tvOS but that seems what might be next.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Apple TV 4K, tvOS 15

I have a similar issue. I see the ad or video without sound for 2 secs. The screen goes black for 2 seconds. Video comes back without sound for about 2 seconds then the video starts. Every video, every add. Apple for screwed something up for so many people to have the same or similar problem

tip, same issue here but not isolated to YouTube . Connecting to App Store time-out and can't connect to Apple TV+ when you logged out

DON'T log out of anything - It will cause Apple TV to become useless as you can't log back in again
