I mean come on now, this is absurd the amazon fire live tv has had nothing but issues for weeks now.
I’m running Beta channel, I can stream live tv at 1.5Mbps on the fire tv, anything higher and it insists it is direct playing, even though the system is set to transcode at 4 Mbps and the stream coming in is clearly 15+Mbps.
The same channel loads just fine on an iPhone, or an apple tv. Clearly this is an amazon fire problem, across multiple generation of the fire sticks.
Running an HDHomeRun Prime cable card tuner, transcoding on record is turned off, turning it on does not help the issue.
DVR works just fine, it’s just live tv that seems to not want to work in the least when activated from an amazon fire, and it kills me because I have several users who bought the fire sticks and boxes just for plex to connect and now have crappy experiences almost every time they attempt to use them.
