Good afternoon - I am getting some stuttering on the high-framerate channels. Really noticeable during last night's Leaf game. Behaviour is as follows:
- tune to channel
- for the first 30 seconds or so, it starts out good quality then switches to a better quality then to a great quality (normal, I've seen this before)
- from then on, every 2-3 seconds I will get a noticeable blip - audio is not interrupted but video is. Really noticeable if you look at scrolling text at the bottom of the screen (during Sportscentre etc.). I never lose the feed or get anything scrambled and never lose audio, just blips/pauses in the feed then it catches up instantly. Almost seizure inducing....!
I have the ADSL 50Meg service. Modem is bridged with a Google Home Wifi system. The "hub" that the STB is hooked into is hardwired into the primary hub that is bridged to the ADSL modem. Looking at the stats, maximum download speed is in the 18Mbit range to the STB when streaming on the higher framerate channels.
I would love to try to pause the game for a minute then resume to see if that fixes the issue (kind of manual buffering) but of course, pausing TSN is not supported :). Anybody else with this problem? - anything I can try? Start has been rock solid for the 4 years I've been using them - nothing else seems to be going on with the network - nobody is steaming Netflix or anything at the same time for instance. I've also given the STB box priority on the network (if that does anything).
