Netflix not loading

[JasonSmudge]

Went on to apps and tried to load Netflix but all it's doing is the loading circle keeps going round and round. 
Anybody help.

Have you tried rebooting by unplugging the device for 30 seconds?

if that doesn't help it sounds like it could be the internet connection the device is getting. How is it connected via WiFI or Ethernet?

WiFi is good, haven't got a problem with it. 
Haven't tried switching the box off and restarting the box yet.

Also don't suppose this has happened after you have turned it on out of standby has it?

if so you may want to change a couple of settings as by default the WiFi gets turned off when the device goes into standby and it can take a while to turn back on when you put it out of standby.

in settings set networked standby mode to ON and that ensures the WiFi connection is maintained. It's also worth turning off overnight power saving mode as well if using WiFi if you notice issues like this first thing in the morning as well.

My son had been watching You Tube on it before switching over to Netflix. So the box had been on for about an hour.

If the reboot doesn't do anything you could try an app refresh as well. 

Settings > System Management > Resets & Updates > refresh apps. This process is not instant and is carried out in the background so don't expect an instant solution. it could take several hours for the app refresh to complete.
