Paramount Plus Buffering

[AnytimePlus+On+VM]

We generally have no issues with Sky Q etc. but even we have to admit that the Paramount+ app is flakey on Sky Q. 

We tend not to get the buffering/ratings display issue on our main box, but our mini box does all the time. Our main box does however suffer from the 'oops' error all the time. 

In contrast we don't have any issues with the other Sky Q apps on either box (Disney+, Netflix etc.) and we don't have any issues with the Paramount+ app on Android (phones/tablets). 

The Sky Q app does seem flakey at best.

Look on you tube where many people are complaining about Paramount + so cannot see why it could be a skyQ problem,  P+ is free so if we went to another place to get it we would have to pay

I dont bother watching it anymore and when my contract is up with Sky I will close my account

It's Sky passive aggressive behaviour to "force" you onto hard drive less glass or stream

especially glass which is a closed system tv with virtually no redeeming features which could have been the best feature ever bought out by Sky.

Unwatchable. Worked well for first few weeks but now just hopeless. There doesn't seem to be much I can do about it.

Paramount Plus buffering and fan on Q box staying on even when I leave the Paramount app. What is going on? Many people have now raised the issue and no direction from Sky. Seriously considering my 1080/year contract renewal in January because of the lack of support for channels  it is promoting on its platform, along with the premium rates it charges and NO response to its clients concerns. Not good enough.

I have the same problem but I run it through the p+ app on a smart tv, with sky broadband. I don't have sky tv or skyQ . And it has only started to buffer since I updated the app. So is it sky broadband or the p+app ??? 

[Mikhailichenko]

I would suggest it is the app. I have BT broadband with Sky Q. Paramount + is the only thing that I have an issue with. I've giiven up watching P+ altogether.

Am having same buffering issues, to the point where I get the Whoops something went wrong banner.

I've got full fibre with over 900Mbps and it still buffers. Yet no problem with Netflix or Prime.
Overall making programmes completely unwatchable and considering cancelling my P+ subscription!

Please can someone sort this out!!

[cobra69]

sky q, full virgin 300 MB.

netflix, all other apps work fine.

paramount plus, constant buffering.

totally unwatchable.

sky or paramount, get this mess sorted 

some great shows and movies, people are missing out on.

taking  plenty of money of us, with sky cinema

At least I'm not the only person with this issue. Every other app (Netflix, Disney+, Prime etc) is fine. Watching paramount+ the screen goes black after less than 5 mins of watching something, I have to exit the app and go back into it. It's getting REALLY irritating.

Good job it is free with sky cinema . I feel sorry for the people paying full price for it.

Same issue, why is it so poor. Every program eventually freezes. Just watched a trailer now and it froze.
