Tablo Crashes when scrolling thru guide

I am a new user to the 4th Gen Tablo. I am using it thru the Tablo app for Firestick.

I notice when I scroll thru the program guide that after a few moments of scrolling, up/down over, etc…that the program crashes. The app closes and goes back to my firestick home page.

Is this a know/common problem? Solution?

Which firestick are you using? There have been known issues with the “regular” Firestick 4k.

I am using the Firestick 4K OS 6.7.0.4

Solutions?

I think everyone with that particular device has upgraded to a Firestick 4k Max or picked up the cheap $20 Walmart onn 4k streaming box. Both of these solutions have provided excellent Tablo experiences.

I assume you are talking about the Live TV grid.

My gen 1 4K app works fine EXCEPT that it doesn’t seem to be able to advance further into the future then 2-2 1/2 days. I have 1.5 GB of available storage and if today is 7/9 at 9AM and I have only 63 channels I can page into the until 7/12 midnight before it blows.

Of course I don’t use the grid for the future scheduling. I use the Shows, Movies, and Sports menu to schedule.

When I search for the Firestick 4K Max I get a whole page of them.

1.) Are there different 4K Max’s?
2.) Is there one on this page that I should get?
3.) If I purchase a new Max Stick…will all of my Firestick preferences/apps come over to the new unit?

Here’s what I see :

  1. There have been two different 4k Max versions. For Tablo purposes, I would avoid any regular 4k sticks and get a max.
  2. I would go with a second generation (the 4k max that says it’s the latest version)
  3. I can’t fully answer this one. I never migrate data to any device. I do believe it will suggest apps that are on your other stick, but I don’t think it will transfer any of your passwords, preferences, or other data.

The 2023 model of 4K MAX when on sale. It has 16gb and wifi 6E. And for those with atsc 3.0 native ac-4 support. A newer model may arrive by black friday.

Good point and it depends on how soon Sp113 needs a stick. I wish we had better information on when AZ will be using their own OS on new devices.

(And always compare AZ to BB or other retailers, sometimes they’re cheaper elsewhere.)

Zippy and 269587…I’m a little lost on the tech/specs…but would this one solve my problem?

My gen 1 4k blows at sept 28th 11:59PM or really sept 29th at midnight. If I reboot the device I can make it to oct 3rd midnight. I only use 67 channels. So why it blows is unknown.

If you think this is a good prime day deal go for it. It may or may not fix your problem. It probably is a bug in the app. Roku has the same type of problem except instead of blowing out of the app the guide data gets wonky(wrong). And I reboot seems to fix it.

That would be the 2nd gen Firestick 4k Max. Still my favorite overall device. I’ve never had a problem with it and it works great with the TabloTV app. $40 might be a little high, but if you’re not in a hurry there will probably be a better deal during this coming Prime Days (Oct 8-9).
