I will push some more changes soon, but playback issues should be resolved now.

I have just installed today’s update and have run some test (running on the ethernet to USB adapter):

Yes definitely. Thanks for the help.

Most of this was way above my head, but it describes exactly my issues that started about a week ago. Same scenario with a Vero 4K and an Amazon gigabit adapter.

Sounds like a software update will fix it…?

I can’t see how this would’ve started a week ago. If it’s the same issue as @sojer2005 reported, a simple update will do the trick.

Sorry, just meant I was having buffering issues with 4K content all of a sudden, and I have a gigabit adapter, so sounded similar.

Just tried installing the update manually and getting this though:

Please start a new post with a log so that we can see what’s going on. I think the issue may be unrelated as @sojer2005’s problem is now fixed.
