Pluto suddenly not working

All of the sudden, I can’t access Pluto channels on Channels, whether on ATV, iPad or iPhone. I can see Pluto shows directly on the Pluto app, but not Channels. I removed Pluto and reinstalled it, but it doesn’t make a difference

What do the logs show?

Seems like ipv6 issue on your network

I restarted the network, but it didn’t make a difference. Is there something more I should be doing?

In testing ipv6, this is what I got

Your DNS server (possibly run by your ISP) appears to have IPv6 Internet access.

Your readiness score
10/10 for your IPv6 stability and readiness, when publishers are forced to go IPv6 only

May be related to this then, which usually happens if the disk is filling up or failing and has become very slow


I think I have plenty of disk space available (132.32 gb)

Do you have both Ethernet and WiFi enabled on the Mac?

Yes, but I always have

Disable wifi and see if you get the same result

I had the same result. Here’s the log entry

Do you get the same error when playing the Pluto channel from the DVR web UI player?

And what is your source for Pluto?

*Yes,I get the same error. What do you mean about the source? I set it up through Custom Channels, using the same settings that have worked for me for at least a couple of years
