It’s been a few days since I noticed my aerial screensaver on my Apple TV 4K is stuck on LA. I am on TV OS 14.4.
I have tried to switch to photos and back again to aerial. I then had 4 screensavers back (not all of them) but after a few hours I was again stuck with LA.
Anyone else? I have posted this on the Apple feedback site fwiw...
 
Have you tried switching to another screen saver, then switching back after a few hours?
 
Sorry, should have said a different Apple Screensaver (landscapes, animals, whatever). Maybe that will delete the cache.
 
All but one of the underwater, Bumphead Parrot Fish, are gone. So tired of Sand and Dubai.
 
Are you almost out of storage space on your Apple TV? That happened to me and deleting some unused apps resolved the issue.
Also, restarting Apple TV after that may help.

(And I'm assuming the latest tvOS update is installed already.)
 
Still the same old… stuck in L.A or just n the new Island screensaver. intermittently. Whatever I do…restart, set the screensaver to photos and go back to the aerials. This is annoying apple is not working on what seems to be a bug. Should be easy to fix. But well… I guess they don’t care about the born dead Apple TV.

Yeah born dead that is why they just added new Screensavers.
 
Still no fix here? I still have that issue and it seems many people do. Sometimes it disappears not sure how and why and it comes back. I have been stuck on LA aerial for 2 weeks now on my Apple TV 4K in my leaving room. In my bedroom no issues for now. I reset my Apple TV etc… but it comes back fr time to others. Apple? Allo? Allo!!???
 
This is caused by the lack of free storage on the Apple TV (as it will revert to the 1 default clip of LA). I'm currently experiencing it again as well. I chased the issue the previous time I experienced it and was looking if there was a simpler solution by now. I guess there's not? Since I hardly have apps installed I assume it's just temporarily downloaded movies from both Apple Movies and streaming apps. I assume re-installing the streaming apps works... going to look into it again tonight.
