@SAMBOB67 I have spoken to 5 different advisors and each one comes up with a different theory and questions. Lets face it they dont have a clue. I have had my NowTV skysports for yrs and never had a problem until Tuesday this wk, and its bad, so ive cancelled now and bought a dickie box. Saving me £240 a yr.

@Ronof9 
Not sure the point of the ‘White boy’ comment? 🤔

FYI that I do not work for NOW, just a NOW customer trying to help

@Ronof9 last weekend picture was fine, but last five days have been dire. Incidentally, new 3 month contract started last Monday. Coincidence?

Same here Live Sports only, Movies are fine, & only problem on my LG TV. Picture breaks up, pixellates,  and sound comes and goes. 

Reset TV to factory settings, reset WiFi router,  reinstalled Now TV app, still the same errors. 

Everything was working fine last weekend  I blame Everton v Liverpool,  that's when it all went wrong. 

I was blaming my dog for two days, I thought he must have chewed a cable.

@Gregoir12345 Same issue here and also started during Everton vs Liverpool. Tried same fixes as you but with no joy. As with others, only affects live stream and not on demand content and only affects LG TV, not phone, tablet, PC etc.

@Ronof9 Yes same problem here, on LGTV. I contacted Now TV support on 27th April, they said they are aware, but no commitment on by when they will fix it. Looks like we will have to watch it using some other means, for example a smart TV stick from Amazon, Google, etc
