Apple TV screen saver

Hi,

I used to have several different screen savers playing in my Apple TV.


The past little while, I started noticing it was always in a loop the Downtown LA one.


2 days ago, I went in settings, made sure it is set to download new ones daily. I had all the different themes, everything looks right.


So I restarted the Apple TV (restart, not restore.) and then I did have several different ones that would play. But just city, none of the other themes.


Then I noticed it was now just playing in loop one of the Hong Kong one.


And I am back to just seeing downtown LA in loop. Any idea why it would do that?


I saw another post that had a similar issue with the same screen saver playing in loop, but the person said it was since they had a 4K tv and changed the resolution of videos. Someone said they were not all optimized for 4K etc. But


I have the standard HD tv, with a 4K 32G Apple TV, and I haven’t changed anything. The software is up to date and I am confident I still have space since I mostly stream.


i will try to restore the Apple TV now and see if it does anything. But was wondering if anyone had ideas on what I can do if it doesn’t fix my issue.


thanks a lot

Apple TV 4K, 14

I ended up having to Reset mine. Eventually I got them back. It seemed related to a software update when it installed 14.0, I never got Themes. I called Apple and they ran through some things to try but that never really worked for mine so I did a Reset.
