When you start play back on the channel 4 app, the video will stutter, this is fixed my stopping the playback and going back to play, this will solve until an advent then the error will start all over again until I follow the same process as above, this is the only app or video play back this happens with.

Hi @stevenwood19730,

 

Thanks for reaching out to the Google Community Forum! I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience of the video stuttering on your streamer. I appreciate you taking the time to investigate what happened, and I'm happy to help!

I've reviewed the information you provided, and I have a few more questions to ensure I can provide the correct troubleshooting steps:

  • Is the device's power saving mode turned on?
  • Are the Google Cast devices’ firmware updated?
  • When did the problem start?
  • Are there other apps that actively run on the device?
  • Are you casting from a mobile device or another device?
  • What type of streamer do you have?

If you have any more information that could be helpful, please let me know.

 

Best regards,

Eduardo
