Issues with jerky playback for live tv only on Peacock

I currently have a Roku Streaming Stick+ model 3810X running software version 14.0.4 build 12221.  All playback on the streaming apps work well except for peacock live tv(ex premier league soccer).  Regular programming on peacock is fine.  I’ve checked other posts in the community and have changed the advanced display settings to no avail.  I also restarted the Roku.  Wi-Fi signal strength is excellent internet download speed is good at 115 mbps. If anyone has some suggestions I would appreciate it.  Is it possible my Roku stick is too slow and I need to upgrade?   Also if I go thru the PS4 there is no playback issues in the peacock app but I would rather use the Roku since I don’t have a tv style remote for PS4. Thank you!

When streaming live TV on apps on the roku ultra we are having frame issues.. it is skipping frames and everything looks choppy. Just started doing this a month ago after last system update.

Thanks for the reply.  I started a ticket with peacock after the chat feature couldn’t resolve it.

Yes….I have the same issue ….I have a Roku streaming stick and the video is very jumpy. If this continues I’m going to discontinue my Peacock service… all other services I have are fine…
