Buffering issues on Sunday Ticket

[notwoz]

I had issues with buffering today on every game I tried to watch. At first I thought it was an issue with a new modem-router I activated this week. But then I tried streaming several shows on Prime and Netflix with no issues. According to this Washington Post story, I wasn't the only viewer to be annoyed.

I tried to make the story shareable, hope it works.

Yeah, today was rough. 

 

First time this season.

Mine kept dropping from 1080p  to 360p resolution at least 4 times until I gave up and watched Scott Hanson on the Red Zone channel instead.

YouTube TV in general has been having trouble lately. Not only with the games, but DVR issues, along with live stream buffering. 
 

Thank God I “cut the cord”.

I was frustrated as well. Just glad BUFFALO wasn’t playing today

   We went YTTV as our main option as soon as last season end and we got rid of DTV.

   It is not a great or even good platform, in general. 
    There is a way to report issues by clicking on your account icon in the top right corner of the screen. Sometimes this helps, sometimes not. We often turn the TV off and on and that helps, sometimes not. Today it helped for a bit but then started the issue again.

    We don’t watch too much TV and will only be in this house for a few more years so we just deal with it.

   But, it is a PITA.

It worked. Thanks for sharing 👍

[Maynard]

Yeah, had issues early today as well. Working good now.

Yep I had same issues with directv streaming being out the last 2 years, saw Sunday Ticket was $400 and scoffed. Glad I did. Jailbreak fire stick for infinitely less and have had no problems ever. Have every sport. No going back, they don't care

The worst was on the multi-view. I had some better success Re buffering on single games.

I’m oddly relieved seeing this because I thought it was just me.

I can’t stand it. Got it only for ticket and hate how long it takes to change channels.  After March Madness, I might put account on hold.

I was too. Initially I thought I had screwed up a new hardware installation. Although I was annoyed by the problem, I was glad it wasn't my fault!

Same. It’s been trash so far. The interface remains a real pain to navigate too. 
 

the only plus is being able to add “Bills” to the library and it will auto record every Bills game.

Just another day living with modern technology which is making everybody's life more enjoyable 😉

Agreed. I had a "wonderful" time trying to get everything in my house linked up to the internet after I installed a new modem-router.

Glad to see I wasn't the only one

I am sure it will work fine for a few weeks till you rap the turkey in tin foil and lose the signal..

Just hope this doesn’t turn into another “Fire Dorsey” thread!

I had a couple of freeze-ups and a lot of low-res video. Very disappointing.
