When I am watching either live or recorded pluto-tv streams, and the pluto logo comes up during the commercial break, the channels-dvr consistently restarts (back to preparing your TV). The only way I can avoid this is to try to jump skip the end of that pluto logo (the black background, yellow pluto logo). I was surprised not to see any other posts to this effect, given it is so consistent. Doesn’t happen on ios client. Anybody else experience this?
I'm not seeing this here on shield pro.
I've never seen this with the Chromecast with Google TV
You might want to experiment with different advanced playback settings. I'm using hardware. There is also hybrid and software.
Good luck
