🐞 Troubleshooting: Beat the Most Common Streaming Glitches

Still getting stutters, buffering, or your audio’s out of whack? Let’s sort it out, one step at a time. 🛠️

• Switch Decoder: Head to TiviMate Settings > Playback > Decoder. If Hardware Decoder is acting up, swap to Software Decoder (or vice versa). This solves most playback hiccups.
• Adjust Deinterlacing: In Settings > Playback > Deinterlacing, switch between Auto, Bob, and Weave, or turn it off. Some channels prefer it one way or the other.
• Increase Buffer Size: Go to Settings > Playback > Buffer Size and choose Large or Extra Large. Bigger buffer means less freezing!
• Update Everything: Make sure your Shield and TiviMate app are both running the latest versions.
• Turn Off AI Upscaling (Shield Pro): Some folks get smoother playback by switching this off in the Shield’s settings.
• Match Refresh Rate: Set your Shield’s display to 50Hz or 60Hz to fit your stream—especially useful for sports and movies.
• Try a Different Playlist: Sometimes, the issue’s on the streaming side, not your setup. Test with a second playlist if you’re stuck.

🚀 Boost Your Experience: Fine-Tune TiviMate for the Smoothest Streaming

Want to make your streaming not just good, but amazing? Here are some expert tricks:

• Use Wired Internet: Plug in with Ethernet if you can. It beats Wi-Fi hands down for stability and speed!
• Close Background Apps: Keep your Shield focused—close out any other apps running in the background.
• Organize Playlists: Only keep channels you’ll actually watch. Too many can bog things down.
• Match Video Output: In Shield Settings > Display & Sound, pick a resolution and refresh rate that fits your stream sources.
• Restart Weekly: Give your Shield a quick reboot once a week for peak performance.
