YouTube video flashes LOADING constantly

Ever since the last update YouTube videos flash "LOADING" constantly in the middle of the screen. I have a 30MB broadband speed and never had this problem before. It's very annoying and happens with any and all videos played.

Is there a way to stop the "LOADING" text from appearing ?

Not due to the last update. It started not long after the youtube app launched.

All parties involved are investgating the issue, no timescale as to when it will be fixed.

Ok thanks for the info. I had seen it before but it used to stop and only appear periodically throughout the video but seems to have got worse so I put 2 + 2 together and got 5 !

Hope they fix it soon

Well it's been around 3 months so far so I wouldn't be holding your breath. I've given up with it completely now and gone back to my Apple TV which has no such issues. Bottom line, there really aren't enough Freesat users to make fixing this a priority.

Agree with earlier posting.. a few months ago it flashed up rarely, hardly ever. Used it just now (Same conncetion..dead fast) and it's blinking on off like mad now.

Hi all new member here been following things on here since i got my box about 3 months ago. Well pleased with it but have been annoyed with the constant flashing of the loading message.
Just watching a few videos now and am pleased to report that it has now gone hurray!

Whoops just realised that my swanky new tv had connected to my phone and was playing the videos rather than the box!
Loading message is still flashing..... At least i don't need this feature on the box any more.

That's interesting as I get the Flashing loading icon whether I connect using my iPad Android phone or the Humax itself?
