Apple TV3 crashes every time connected to TV

My Apple TV3, bought from Australia, currently in India about 3 months back.
It crashes every time I connect it to TV. I need to do a full restore to get it back working. Also, many time doing the restore I get 1611 and error 9.

Anyone who can give me clues, i just don't know where to start looking for problems. Apple Tv, HDMI Cable, software restore, TV, etc ??

Yes..it does crash..

Process is;

I restore to latest firmware -> connect to tv, see for some time -> Apple TV sleeps -> when i wake up/restart, its crashed.

it displays apple logo over and over again.

The only way to recover from this is another restore to latest firmware.

I tried with 2 HDMI cables. Any specifications of type of cable to be attached between apple tv and tv ??

Okay will try with a new HDMI;

I thought so as well that TV could be a problem. My LCD TV is old, about 4 years old.

Thanks for the inputs ...
