Strange Mibox YouTube issue.

by Darth_Haskell

Really strange issue. I have an android TV Mibox and when trying to play live videos on YouTube app, the video appears normal for a couple of seconds and then changes to a screen like this. Sound continues to function perfectly. I uninstalled YouTube, deleted data, resigned in, and even went so far as to factory reset the device. Nothing gives. Regular YouTube videos that aren't live seem to work fine. Does anyone have any experience with this? Thanks in advance.

Please report the issue at the Youtube Feedback website, explaining with details the issue and add a video link as an example.

I have had this mainly with 4K videos, also a lot of freezes. I end up using the app on my Samsung smart TV more than the Android TV one because it works just fine... All the other apps on Android TV work, by the way.

Thanks for all the suggestions. The issue has gone away on it's own today. Happy streaming!

Strangely this is happening to me also after a recent update. Any solutions so far?
