I wanted to come back to this thread and add some more information as something else is now happening but I don’t think it is Channels specific as I am seeing it in a couple of other Apps and I am curious if anyone else is having this happen or if it’s just me. (on the Shield device)
I was watching a recording today that was from last night and one part I started getting very bad artifacts across the screen for about 2 seconds then it would clear up but come back about every 30 seconds or so. I was going to come here right away and post but decided to try some other apps as well.
I happened to have setup a recording via the hdhomerun app of that same show so I started watching it there and saw the same artifacts. Out of curiosity I checked out the same recording via the HDHR app on my Xbox One and no artifacts - perfect playback.
I then came back to the Shield and tried the recording in the Emby app. The same artifacts showed up. I then tried it in MrMC - no artifacts.
I then got curious and started watching Live TV on the Channels App. Some artifacts here and there. I then tried the HDHR App again - same problem with artifacts popping up. However, I installed the HDHR app on MrMC on the Shield and I am watching Live TV right now - no artifacts at all.
I then tried the HDHR app with Live TV on the Xbox One - no artifacts.
Is anyone else seeing this or is it specific to my device? I thought perhaps an HDMI cable issue or something going on with my receiver but since it isn’t happening on MrMC I am now very confused.
