Upgradied one ATV-5 to the new .1 version. Went to the second TV to upgrade it, turn it on and it came up with the "no video" message. Move the good ATV-5 to the bad TV and it worked. Move the Bad ATV to the good TV and the ATV-5 still didn't work. Tried HDMI Cables, rebooting, different HDMI ports, etc... no go. Called Apple support said bring it for repair. After lunch I turn on the bad TV with the Good ATV5 and it died with the same "no video"message. The TV is a Samsung 3/4 years old. Called Apple again, got to second level of support ...no idea what was wrong, but told me they would replace both ATV's at no charge which I am in the process of doing. Bottom line, I bought a new TV. How stupid would it be to hook up one of the replacements and do it again. Only other thing attach to the TV is a Sonos sound bar..it works.

Has anyone seen or heard of this before? The ATV will boot with the blinking led, go steady. The remote works, will turn TV and ATV on/off.
