Apple TV remote control disconnect/reconnect mystery.

this message is in response to a trend pertaining to the Apple TV remote control keeps disconnecting from Apple TV.

—————-

I noticed when I select the hdmi to control the devices, then the Apple TV remote has to be reconnected by pushing a button on the Apple TV remote to reconnect. But when I’m using Apple TV remote control to turn on the device, it reconnects automatically. In other words, the remote control doesn’t stay connected to the Apple TV all the time, but it disconnects as the device is turned off. Then when you are turning it back on by pushing a button, that process itself reconnects the remote control to the Apple TV.

but when other devices are turning on the Apple TV, then you have to reconnect the remote control again by pushing a button on the remote control.

in my case, I usually use the TV remote control to turn on all 3 devices. But when I’m using the Apple TV remote control or AV receiver’s remote control they don’t turn on my TV. But TV remote control does turn on all of them. That’s why I prefer using the TV remote control to turn on all devices. Then when I am using the Apple TV remote control to navigate through the channels it reconnects to the Apple TV as soon as I push any button.
