Is this a known issue and is there a fix?

I would imagine the stream bitrate is too high for your connection, especially if your home network is busy. Try turning off automatic play in Settings and find the best stream source and bitrate for you. The default for live streams is 5.1Mbps which is too much for my connection.

I've also noted that when I do a search for a program (after I select the first letter of the program title), no matches are returned. This anomaly has only recently started occurring (the last time it worked fine was on the evening of December 5th). I am using this app in the United States.

I've noted the following in the kodi.log when I attempt to view Live TV:

Any thoughts with regard to these errors?

Thank you!

As long as your VPN is in the UK we can help.
Are you sure your WeTek box is using the same DNS server as your laptop?

Hi - thanks for this - first off VPN is Uk London.
The Dns servers are different despite using the same sources.

the laptop has DNS Primary 209.222.18.222 and secondary 209.222.18.218 and the wetek box has a primary of 192.168.1.254 and has no secondary.

HOWEVER think I have solved the problem by changing the settings in STREAMS.

I have changed from any & fastest to AKAMI and 5.5 - at the moment I have Iplayer working in all areas , Live, Radio, T.V.

Is it working for anyone else?
