Problem with National Geographic pixellating

Currently watching trafficked on National Geographic channel (9:30pm) &  the picture starts to get blocky intermittently,I’ve had this issue previously when watching Air crash investigation at 11pm weeekdays, it doesn’t happen with any other channel 

there’s no problem with my internet connection either I have a 108mbs fibre connection which doesn’t change

using the Nowtv app on a Samsung smart tv

Hi @Anonymous User 

 

Thank you for your message.

 

Can I please ask you if you are watching the live channel or On Demand, please?

 

 

 

• If basic troubleshooting is done-(for unplug device/uninstall app, clear all history on device, smart TV & app. )
• Content name
• Season and Ep numbers
• If possible also timing of the problem happens in Ep
• Device types
• if it is samsung Smart TV, is that just using the app or if you use stick too.
• Area: UK or ROI
• Image or video of problem if possible

Thanks for replying

 

Watching live

Samsung smart tv app only

content as mentioned : Trafficked S1 e2

(Air crash investigation 11pm)

timing:  9;30pm & others (Sun 14/2/20)

Area : UK

 

Idon't see the point in deleting & re installing the app, as the other channels are fine,it's just Nat Geo that has the issue,i can't provide a screeenshot,it's not like i'm watching this on a mobile device or a pc,when i'm watching it on tv

Hi @Anonymous User 

 

Izzie-T sent me a PM early last week to say that she is on holidays until Monday the 1st of March 2021.

 

So you might be better off making NowTV Live Chat aware of the picture issues on National Geographic (unless you can wait until Izzie is back next week to pass this info onto the relevant NowTV Technical Team).

 

Unfortunately i won't be able to help, where i am a customer just like your good self.
