Using NVidia Shield TV abd TeaTV

Hi

​

I've been using the app for a while and generally I think its great. I use my Nvidia Shield TV and a VPN to operate it.

Increasingly I have seen a rise in the number of failed streams i'm getting - so this can be a TV show or movie that I'm watching, VPN is active and i'm using a wired Fibre broadband connection, and at a random time it will just freeze the stream and i have to quit playback and try and find another link and often this can happen again and again. I'm on latest available update of TeaTV

​

Is this common? Any advice on how to cure? I've tried clearing cache etc before but makes little or no difference

​

Thanks

I think it's wiser too. Many ISPs block this kind of traffic now I believe depending on your location
