This new release has killed 4K playback. 4K media won't play at all, have tried it on Nvidia Shild, FireTV, and Android phone.

[averrkn0t 5]

It seems to be reading 4K as 1080p. To fix the issue I had to change the quality from auto to 4k-40 Mbps. Shouldn't have had to do that.

Not seeing any issues with 4K content playback on my Shield or Pixel 7 Pro with quality set to Auto. Logs?

@Luke

Help please.

This new release has killed my 4K playback. 4K media freezes then won't play at all, have tried it on Nvidia Shild, FireTV, and Android phone. To fix playback I had to switch the quality from auto to 4k-40Mbp. 

Thank you.

I was playing a 4K tv show, and it transcoded it to 720p, sometimes it transcode it to 1080p but wouldn't play it at its true 4K. This didn't start happening until I updated the app.

Can’t you sort yourselves out, or why are you releasing a new version almost every day?

I didn't have this issue until I updated. No settings changed on my end, just updated. I wonder if tests are being done across multiple devices before an updated release. I'll probably just roll back to the version that was working for me.

I reckon it’s more a case of the user having to test it. They pay money for the app and/or a subscription, and on top of that they get to act as a guinea pig. And then they’re asked to kindly send in the log. That way, the programmer saves themselves the testing phase.
