I seem to be getting intermittent An unexpected playback problem has occurred
on my LG G1 webOS app. These errors are completely intermittent. As soon as I back out and try playing the exact same media, it works perfectly. It happens when I initiate playback, and after I retry and finish the episode and move to the next one, it will usually happen again. It does not happen every time, and I cannot figure out how to consistenly reproduce it. It’s mostly just annoying. I have not noticed it on other platforms, though I do not watch enough on anything other than webOS to verify that it only occurs on that version. Debug logs from the client below.
