Youtube on Samsung TV crashing

Hello,

Was wondering if anyone else had this issue. I moved to YF back in March and have to say it is EPIC! However, there is one little issue I started getting on my main living room TV. Its a Samsung 75" 4K smart TV with YouTube and other apps.

When watching Youtube it will crash daily in this app only on this TV only at random times. It looks like buffering Circle loading icon. I have to then exit the app and power the TV off and back on to get it working again.

Anyone else experienced this?

Thanks in advance :)
 
Of course. Problems is with internet provider... .

Maybe need to check TV first? reinstall app, check for app updates e.t.c.

Does it work on your phone in that time?
Have you tried using a network cable instead of wifi (temporarily, just for diagnostics)?
It does sound like a problem with either your network or the TV.

I will also say this, more of a rant, smart TVs are some of the biggest dumpster fires around currently, technology not fit for purpose, underpowered and poorly maintained. Their main priority is to track you, show you ads and whatever else it takes to turn a human into as much ££$$ as possible.

My Samsung is smart, however, we live for Google TV, it supports everything we need pretty much except 4OD or whatever it’s called now, which we use on the tv itself. Had it around 2.5 years and it’s never failed us, even supports Plex which I only recently found out.

Great piece of kit.

I know it doesn’t solve your issues, but even with youtube it’s been fine.
