Hi Simon,

Is it only when you watch particular streaming services, or specific series/programs? I had issues before where one particular streaming service did this to me regularly, but others were fine. Turned out that the app wasn't updating properly on my smart tv -- I just had to uninstall and reinstall it. Been fine ever since...

Cheers,

Tom

I can't believe it, turns out it was my smart TV that was the cause of the problem. I went to the settings screen and there was an update available.

I've been putting up with this for days, and now it's perfect, thank you Barry Zucker Thomas Daniels 

Now... back to watching my finale!
