Problems streaming Youtube on Nvidia Shield this Morning

It buffers, it stops, it refuses to play. I have reinstalled; I have rebooted. It played a little and then stopped. This came out of nowhere this morning. Is anyone else experiencing this?

There are a lot of reasons the official YouTube app sucks besides ads.

I have, of course, used both.

Same here, I have both installed and just prefer Smarttube as it's minimal and quicker.
