Hi there,

I use the NOW TV app on my LG TV. I have the LG 43UH610V.

I have very high speed internet, 100MBPS - so I used to always get maximum streaming quality, 4865.

Yesterday I came home to find the user interface of the NOW TV app looked different, more blue for sure! Must be an update I thought. 

I use NowTV only for the Sports Pass, I have a month pass. So I went to watch Sky Sports News and found, after it settled on the channel, that the streaming quality was only at 2432 (or around there)

I have tried the following quick fixes:

-Restarting my TV
-Restarting my router

-Wiring the ethernet cable from my router into the back of my TV

Has anyone else been experiencing similar issues with this update?
Are there any other quick fixes I haven't tried?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

James

It's just a poor update

Hi, I’ve had the same problems. I’ve tried 2 boxes and 3 televisions and still unwatchable on the entertainment package,  seems to work fine on the free view channels

Hi @Anonymous User,

 

Given that what you are seeing is not specific to LG TV owners, your topic has been moved into the forums Sports sub-section...

 

 

Cheers

Coo. Do you have any info on what might have caused this? When will it be rectified?

Not as yet. The NOW TV developers are constantly tweaking the service. Some tweaks work better than others!
