Playback Issues - Audio/Video & Power

[merk]

when i watch videos on amazon prime i can not fast forward/skip intro. It constantly buffers. It will skip ahead, start to play for a half second, freeze and buffer for 2-3 seconds, then resume playing for a half second, free, buffer etc etc. Same thing happens if I try to rewind.

Its only on amazon prime this happens. FF on netflix works perfectly. youtubetv FF works fine, disney and hbo are also good.

This has been happening for a while now, just didn't bother to check into it since i thought an update would eventually resolve it. As of right now both the amazon prime app and the system software for the tv are up to date.

I doubt it's a network issue since every other single service works fine, and the tv is wired into the network and i have a 1gb connection.

Any suggestions?

I have the same TV in the same exact problem. My internet speed is one gigabyte per second so I know it's not my connection.

would be great if someone from roku would contribute to this thread, maybe with a solution?

Hi everyone,

Thanks for the posts.
