Only been using IPTV for 2 months. One thing I've noticed with the 2 providers I've used is whenever the channel goes to an ad break it will freeze until the program resumes.
Doesn't happen with all channels. I don't think think it's a coincidence either. Happens too often.
Not that I wanna watch the adverts anyway, would just like to know why this happens..
I'm using Fab/Flawless. Nvidia Shield / Live Channels app
It's because their source use streams from the web which have different contractually agreements with adverstisers for web vs broadcast/cable.
