While using a black Now TV box with a wired connection and a 200 Mbit connection I regularly get 2-3 second picture freezes while the sound continues unaffected. While watching football it happens every 10 minutes or so. It's not a huge issue but more irritating and it only occurs while watching sports. Has anyone had a similar problem that was fixed?

Hi all,
Just an update to apologise for the issues you have experienced when trying to watch sport on NOW TV.
Yesterday we pushed out an update that should now have resolved the issue across our Sports Channels.
We continue to monitor these channels, if you still experience this issue please let us know.
Thanks,
Karl

With regard to entertainment & movies, presumably this issue is occurring on streaming the Live channels, as we're not seeing it here at all when streaming content On Demand?
Don't have a Sports pass at the moment, so can't comment on what's happening there - but as most (if not all) Sports content is effectively Live, and the issue seems to be affecting playback on a variety of devices, I would guess that it's a playout problem at the NOW TV end affecting Live channels (rather than specifically a software or device problem).
Sympathies to all affected though, we were affected by the "freezing" issue for quite a while during spring & early summer last year before that got fixed.
It would seem that a general lack of acknowledgement and ongoing communication with customers is, once again, reflecting badly on NOW TV.
