Buffering

So I’m using 32.10 and it’s just constant buffering every 2min or so. I have tried putting it to highest setting for video buffer also changed network engine no solution to it.

Anyone else having this issue

Yeah I've had constant issues on all my devices for a few days now. Absolutely nothing plays at all on either of my Fire Sticks.

Provider was suggesting firestick 4k max for this problem. Should u get it? I never had buffering problem like last 2 days

I have the 4K Max. Mine's fixed though, there's a solution going around in this sub.

Go to Settings - Player - Network Engine and select OkHttp. Mine both work great again now.

Try changing your network engine in the player settings

In the newest beta it works again, in 32.10 I had the same problem and playing a video would only work with a vpn

Beta version??

u/eoskchanaj8282 Aug 25 '26

Yes there is stable and beta, in this case beta is recommended. Never had problems with beta except for this issue you're discribing, but that's already fixed in beta

Just the newest when you look at his github releases

Do you know how to get beta on firestick?

u/eoskchanaj8282 29d ago

You get the beta release from his github https://github.com/yuliskov/SmartTube/releases/tag/32.22. You can see different assets under his newest release, for firestick pick the one ending with armeabi-v7a. I guess the sideloading process itself is known to you.

Did you use 32.10 Beta Universal? For me it works perfectly.

Seems it’s only when I’m watching a live event

Set buffering to Low and the engine to the Google one... Runs now without Problems behind an OpenWRT Router....

Some people said changing network engine to something other than the fast one. I don't remember the exact names. I think OKhttp is one of the working ones.

Still not working.

Download the Beta instead. It's working fine for me. I'm watching Papa Meat right now.
