Using Nvidia Shield with Locast and Philo and getting these errors on a regular basis:

Does anyone know what is causing this?

DNS configuration issue

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Check and fix your dns settings

Which settings are you talking about? The only setting I'm aware of is the IP address of the DNS server. I don't have any problems with other programs that use DNS.

Not sure what you tell you. The DNS server you're using is not returning returning results for the Locast server. Your only option is to use a different dns server. You can try 8.8.8.8 or 1.1.1.1. Or you could reboot your router and hope that fixes the dns server there.

Thanks @tmm1. I will try that.
