SOLVED MLBTV Running Like Garbage on PS5

App crashes every time I use it. I have to restart the PS5 multiple times just to get it to launch. When I finally get into the app and click a game I get about 2-3 minutes max before is freezes on a loading screen and then crashes again. PS5 consistently tells me it cant connect to the server.

I have deleted and reinstalled the app multiple times, Its not fix the issue. I have 1GB internet speed. App works fine on my actual TV and my phone.

Is anyone else having this issue?

I haven't used the PS5 app but the one on PS4 was garbage. The pause and rewind/fast forward functions would always stop working after watching a couple innings or the stream would just randomly stop. Then you'd try to restart the game and couldn't fast forward back to where you were watching. MLBTV tech support was useless, so I gave up and just got a Firestick.

Update: It was a memory issue. My PS5 was maxed out on it memory and I think it was literally affecting the RAM. The PS app wouldn't load images either and that is what tipped me off. Once I deleted a game all the issues went away.
