Fine-Tuning Performance & Troubleshooting Login Errors
If you encounter buffering, audio desynchronization, or "Authorization Failed" notices on British broadband:
- Verify Trailing Spaces: On-screen virtual keyboards frequently append an inadvertent space character after usernames or server addresses. Ensure credentials are typed cleanly.
- Toggle Stream Format: In Smarters Settings > Stream Format, switch between MPEG-TS (.ts) and HLS (.m3u8). HLS is often more resilient against British broadband packet shaping.
- Switch Player Decoder: In Settings > Player Selection, configure Live TV to use the Built-in Hardware Player rather than Software decoding to eliminate video stutter.
- Deactivate ISP Content Blocks: If the app displays "Invalid Details" despite correct credentials, your broadband provider (Virgin Media, BT, Sky) may be blocking the handshake. Deactivate BT Web Protect or Virgin Media Web Safe in your ISP customer portal.
