Dark center section of the tv using 4K TV

I upgraded to a Apple 4K TV and now have this dark section running across horizontally in the picture. This is fixed by restarting the Apple TV but over time it reappears.


What setting needs adjusted to eliminate this?

Apple TV 4K, tvOS 12

Try another port

Make sure TV is correctly set for HDR
