Since the new firmware came out I have been noticing two things that are (again) making my Tablo almost useless:
-
When I use the Tablo Preview channel on my Roku, I can view the show information in the matrix, but if I attempt to select any channel for live view, the channel stops and dumps me back to the Roku main menu.
-
On several previously strong channels, if I try to watch a show live, it will sit and churn for several minutes and then appears to either lock up or just stop. i usually have to back out or even hit the home button back to the Roku main menu to try again. I can’t tell you how many live shows I’ve seen recently on the channel guide, just to be disappointed when they wouldn’t load. I just gave up each time.
I have to say, between the lack or reliability of my Tablo and the constant problems with SlingTV (another $20 out of my pocket), I’m questioning if dumping Dish was such a great idea. I have spent a lot of money and time on this stuff and it’s getting me no where. Only Netflix, Hulu and Amazon Prime have been my constant sources of TV.
Really disappointed on so many levels.
