Hulu and Netflix Issues

Is anyone else having issues with Hulu and Netflix freezing. I would be watching Hulu and the video will freeze and the audio will continue to play. Then after several seconds the video will catch up. I am running 100mb internet speed so I know its not my connection. The Prime videos run perfect but Hulu and Netflix have issues. I contacted Hulu and they couldn't fix anything. I have done 2 factory resets trying to fix this. Anyone else have this problem?
Do you have Comcast by any change? They love to slow down netflix connections. Can you check if you have the same issue on other platforms?
Actually yes I am... Neither of my Fire Tv's (both rooted running 51.1.0.2) will stream Hulu or Netflix, but internet is working on them. I have OTA's blocked on my Fire TV. Thinking of just updating it. Thoughts? Suggestions?
When I first rooted mine, I was having issues with Hulu. Once I uprooted it, it started working again. Try unrroting one of the and see if any changes.

This Fixed It For Me
I finally read somewhere that you can change the display settings for the Fire TV from 1080P to 720P. Now that I have done that I have watched 3 movies and 4 episodes on both Netflix and Hulu without any issues Hopefully if you are having any issues this will fix it for you.
Where'd you read that? If it makes Netflix request the lower-res streams that could definitely have an effect.
My TVs aren't 1080p anyway.

Move netflix and hulu apps to the sd card (install an sd card if you don't have one). Solved the problem for me.

Netflix won't play movies on my rooted ftv.

I have a bunch of rooted fire tvs and recently two of them are unable to play movies while all of my other units are able. I go to a movie it attempts to play and says netflix is unable to play this movie please try again later. Netflix is telling me it is the fire tv.. ? I am not sure how that can be if all other apps play fine as well as xbmc. Has anyone else ran into this issue?

Are they all linked to the same account and do they all have the same DNS settings? The apps don't work if the AFTV is in a different location to the Amazon account itself, not sure what else could be causing it though...

Chromecast on 4.6.3?

Is anyone else using a Chromecast with the phone? I have a brand new device I just purchased as a replacement due for my old phone due to a cracked screen... I was able to downgrade to 4.6.3 with no problems and installed google play services ( play.apk with 4 files in it.) Some apps are working, the Chromecast app installs and locates the Chromecast, YouTube, Showtime Anytime, Starz and Plex all show the Chromecast icon however Netflix, Hulu and HBO Now do not... Has anyone else experienced this?

not supported. Probably will never be unless you use a custom rom.

Netflix HD streaming problem

Initially Netflix worked Well with HD streaming on my view 20. But then couple of days back when I was scrolling through the app section in settings I mistakenly uninstalled Netflix provider app. It was around 5mb. After that I am unable to stream Netflix in HD. Is there any way to fix the problem? I cross verified in DRM info app and the device still supports widewine L1 license
I wish there was some fix/ update for that. My View 20 never showed HD badges on Netflix even though some users claim it works for them. The same with Now TV, Amazon Video or BBC iPlayer - neither supports HD videos which is a shame because of this nice big display ;/

TCL 55715k - Issues with 4k Content when streaming via Disney+ or Prime Video

TCL 55715k - Issues with 4k Content when streaming via Disney+ or Prime Video
Since the latest update to the new googleTV my Disney+ and Prime Video won't play 4k content, it just stutters and will play 1 second before seeming like its trying to load.
I have checked the wifi, I have a netgear r7100 router that's giving me 48mb down and 19mb up consistently.
My Galaxy Tab s7+ which is also 4k streams without any issues.
I have tried uninstalling the apps and re-installing to no avail. I have reset the TV completely.
Does anyone have the latest android software I can downgrade too? All my apps worked perfectly before the update.
