ATV2 - Will not show any video w/o reboot

I have 2 Apple TV devices (both are 2nd generation).
One of them is fine.  But the other one will not show a signal after about a day of no use. I have to unplug the power, then plug it back in to get a signal out of it.
The other day, I watched the LED light as I was trying to turn it on. It just flashes when I press the power button on the remote, so it is indeed getting my remote commands. After I try to turn it on about 5-7 times, the LED stays lit. But the TV still says "no signal".  If I unplug it from the power, then plug it back in, only then it comes back up and seems to work ok.  But if we don't use it again for about a day, when we come back to it.. we get the same thing and it needs to be unplugged again and plugged back in (power).
I tried to reset to factory settings, but that didn't help.
This started happening after the 4.2 update (I think that was about 3 updates ago).
Any ideas I can try?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
As I see this I mostly suspect one of three reasons
• iMovie Event's and or iMovie Project's folders have/has been moved/altered on DeskTop/Finder - DON'T - but try to move everything back exactly where it was
• iMovie pref. file got corrupted (very easily done by e.g. Panic/Force halt's) - trash it when iMovie is NOT running
• Material used in Movie Project is located on device not accessibly any longer. E.g. one used audio from Audio-CD then ejected the CD. iMovie (Project's) Don't do ANY copy of the used material - only point's to where it found it and if external hard disks, Audio-CDs etc are disconnected then the iMovie Project get's lost and it has no function to try to find it (at all).

    Do you get this window when you hold down the Command+Option keys and launch iPhoto?
    If not then you're not holding down both keys long enough.

  • OGMRIP is broken... will not rip any video.

    I am firstly not sure if this section is the correct one, if not then i am sorry
    After changing over from Ubuntu to Arch i still wanted to rip my dvd's into high quality MKV files using the program "ogmrip".
    After installing all the packages wich it depends on i installed the program itself and it seemed to work just fine, but it will not rip any videos.
    It keeps telling me that the codec is not supported by the video output and then fails.
    This is actually a known issue with version 0.13.4 and was solved by means of a patch or by replacing it with version 0.13.5 ...
    Without the patch this version of the package is useless, so can someboddy tell me how to contact the maintainer and advice him of this ?
    It would be nice to have the latest and correct version in the repo's
    UPDATE
    created the package and placed it in aur and i will also mail the maintainer of the file.

    It's already flagged out-of-date, which means the maintainer is aware of the new release. If you're in a hurry, build a 0.13.5 package for yourself using the Arch Build System.

  • Please help CS 4.2 will not import ANY video file

    I've been working for days to get this fixed. Everything installs fine software wise and I am using a
    Matrox RTX2 for capture/playback but Prem CS4.2 will not import any video file type.
    My system is up to spec.
    I've seen this problem discussed but none of the (many) suggested solutions have helped.
    I've uninstalled and re-installed the OS and clean install multiple times and still I get "file format not supported" with EVERY file type.
    Please help!
    Brian

    Brian,
    Welcome to the forum.
    When issues occur with Matrox cards, updating its drivers often fix things.
    If you create a non-Matrox Project, can you then Import AV files?
    Good luck,

  • FCP X will not play any video.

    FCP X will not play any video. I can skim the audio but can not playback anything. I can move things aroun in the timeline and do everthing else but no play. When I press play or space It will freeze with my favorite beach ball until I force quit. I have deleted all preferences and the app and reinstalled from scratch. Didn't change anything. I was able to export out a project without being able to see it untill the export finished, in full res with no issues.
    I am using an Imac 10 with Dual core 3.06ghz and 16gb ram on 10.6.8

    Spoke to Apple Rep today: Everything works in a new user. Duh I should have thought of that. He at first was telling me that 256 vram was barely enough to run FCPX  and my dual monitors was part of the problem with too many things on the bus 1 usb drive 2 usb printers 1 usb apc, Firewire 400 DVD and Lacie drive, and a Drobo He didn't like the Drobos.  Unhooked everything... Didn't help.
    He Did say that with A DSLR you must Render on import. Tried that Didn't help. I need tosee if that holds water. Off to figure out my User issues But at least I can get back to work.

  • HT4314 I have an IPhone an IPad1 and and IPod.  The game center on the IPod will not show any of the games.  Can anyone help with this?

    I have an IPod touch 4.2 and the game center is not showing any of the games.   My Ipad1 and IPhone are running from the same account and both work great. Any suggestions how I might solve this?  Thank u

    I would just explain that this just started happening, that nothing has changed on the phone, that it is an original iPhone and I wondered if they are implementing a change in coverage with their Edge network in my area.
    If you restore your phone, you will be given an option to back up your phone at the beginning of the process (see step 6 here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414).  You will be given the option to restore to that backup at the end of the restore process.  Your messages are stored in the backup so restoring to the backup will return the messages to your phone.  Be sure to import your photos and videos to your computer (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083) and back up your contacts somewhere before restoring your phone as these sometimesget lost in the restore process.

  • Upgraded to 7.0.2 and now iTunes will not show a video horizontally

    I have an iphone 4s.  Since upgrading to 7.0.2, itunes will now show a video horizontally.  The portrait view is also much smaller.  I tried changing settings, but I haven't found how to fix this.

    Now iTunes won't open. It doesn't give me any error messages it just won't open the window.
    some preliminary questions aimed at narrowing in on possible culprits.
    (1) do you have Norton Internet Security 2005 installed on the PC?
    (2) try launching your QuickTime. does it:
    (a) launch perfectly fine?
    (b) fail to launch with an error message? (if so, what does it say?)
    (c) exhibit other peculiar behavior? (if so, could you describe it for us?)
    (3) reboot the PC. bring up your Task Manager, and click on the "Processes" tab. now try to launch itunes again.
    does an "itunes.exe" process appear in the Processes tab? if so, does it persist in there or does it disappear after a few seconds?
