Status:Open Resolved:
Product:Apple TV Product Version:7.0 (6897.5)
Classification:Serious Bug Reproducible:Always
 
Summary:
When Apple TV is switched ON for a long time (3h+) for just receiving AirPlay streams the GUI will be broken after an undefined interval by showing NO video anymore OR the video is overlayed by all menus.

Steps to Reproduce:
- switch Apple TV ON
- stream what ever audio you want to it
- take a look after 2/3+h by starting a video from the iTunes Store, Netflix, YouTube etc.

Expected Results:
- streaming audio should stop
- video should start
- all menus are invisible

Actual Results:
- streaming audio will stop
case [1]: video starts, but without any pictures, just audio is available
case [2]: video starts, everything is up (video & audio), but all Apple TV menus are overlayed

Regression:
I guess this happens since I updated to version 7.0
