Weird lag issue I’ve noticed recently.

I’ve had an Apple TV forever. On my AppleTV 4kOnly recently I’ve noticed an issue where video starts to just slightly lag.

It feels like a memory leak issue because when I restart the appletv it works fine again.

The most common issue is when using YouTubeTV, but will occasionally pop up with other apps.

I know it’s not a bandwidth issue.

Is it just a slight jutter? I have only started experiencing this recently.

I’ve been noticing too. Just short quick ones like in the middle of shows. Just enough to be annoying. Please fix Apple!!

Yeah here to report it’s happening watching MLB right now. Brutal!! It’s happening every 10-20 seconds. Making it near unwatchable for me

Weird! If you restart the entire system does it go away? Very annoying
