Our Apple TV picture quality has recently become grainy and looks like an old movie.

Our Apple TV picture quality has become grainy and looks like an old movie. Shows on the cable are fine.

Please try the following:


1.     Unplug your modem from its power source and Restart Modem.


2.     Unplug your router from its power source and Restart router.


3.     Unplug Apple TV from Power for 2-3 minutes – re-plug in and retest. 


If those steps do not work, please try another HDMI cable.
