My you tube app has now frozen too. All working yesterday. I linked two mobile devices. Now the you tube logo just displays on the screen and just stays there. I can access other on demand services ok.
Yeah, I had this yesterday. Tried everything. The only thing that worked was reset to factory defaults, which means losing your personal settings, your favourite channels your series linked and other planned recordings, but resets your on demand apps. So make a note of everything before you do it! NB it doesn’t wipe your existing recordings.
I couldn’t find anything on the web about this issue, I suspect the problem may be with youtube rather than Humax, as without a network connection the YouTube splash screen won’t appear, so it looks like it is connecting to YouTube’s servers.
I signed into my youtube account on the TV, maybe it was something to do with that? Or, I connected 2 mobile devices too, maybe it’s that!? I haven’t signed in since resetting, and I’ve only conncted 1 mobile device, and it’s still working. For now.
Thanks. I don’t think I can be bothered to do a factory reset just to get you tube working again.
Just a heads up…..
After the 1.00.37 update it discarded my manually set IP settings & forgets re-entered ones every time I put it in standby. A side effect of this, that I discovered, is the fact that YouTube doesn’t appear in ‘On Demand’ if the box isn’t on-line. Once I enabled DHCP on my router (which I prefer not to) the box starts up, connects to the router & YouTube appears.
The new channel looks quite nice, but I doubt I will be using it because this humax box is so slow and laggy I’d rather just stick to watching youtube on my ipad.
I had this working fine when using my iPad. I then decided to pair my iPhone and all seemed well until I went back into the YouTube app. All I get is the logo and nothing else. There is no way I’m losing all my settings for this. YouTube needs to address it.
Had the exact same thing, as you’ve probably already seen earlier in the thread! I also paired an iPad and an iPhone, so wonder if the bug is to do with that, and/or pairing more than one device?
TBH doing a reset was a real pain, I lost all my planned recordings and missed a load of stuff. It’s not worth it to have YouTube on your TV. I imagine they’ll push out another update and it’ll probably fix this issue so if you don’t need or use the YouTube app, I’d wait it out.
Yes, I had the same issue with YouTube. I asked on the Freesat community forum and one of the staff suggested a factory reset, which cured the issue but wiped all my planned recordings and favourites.
If it happens again I will not be doing another reset but yes, hopefully a future update will fix the issue.
Worth complaining to YouTube and Freesat if you are bothered about it.
