I think my 4K Apple TV is on its way out, but I'm not sure! When watching content, the screen will go completely black for a few seconds before the picture returns, with the content paused and you can then resume it. When it happens, it will happen a few times in a row and then be fine.

Occasionally I can tell its about to happen as there will be some white flecks appear on the screen - just a dozen or so on the picture like old school interference before the black screen.

This happens regardless of the source of the media and pretty much every single day. I'm guessing its a sign that the ATV box just needs replaced, but was wondering if anybody else has had similar experience?

Thanks!
