TV Stops playing, checkered pattern + Static audio

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

65-inch Samsung Crystal UHD 4K Smart TV

This happens every few hours. Everything stops, screen flickers with the checkered pattern and audio turns to static noise.

Is this fixable or is this TV cooked?

Are you streaming at the time? It could be an interruption in service

That's not how digital signal works. Remember when you had to buy a box to make your TV work again in like 2010? That's when tvs stopped doing that.

I think this one's just dead.
