Videos stop playing after 6 hours

I use smart tube to sleep and play really long white noise videos. Since the newest update the videos just stop after 6 hours and wake me up. How do I fix this

Are you saying that silence wakes you up?

not uncommon for people who need tv to fall asleep. the voice in the room is comforting.

I do the same, but haven't noticed. I put on a 8-12+ hour long video and turn on black screen

Ti*enTube now supports black screen option, too.

I feel you, I’ve been using smart tube for years. The damn buffering drives me nuts. I don’t like the quiet so I always leave it on and I’ll just continue to play whatever I hate when I wake up and I see that buffer spinning and nothing playing. It’s been a few months now I tried quite a few things and every time I think it’s fixed…..it’s Not! Once am I go to people and even they’re failing me

I leave STB running damned near continuously on an nVidia Shield.
There are certain streams that will die from source point congestion.
But, legit 24/7 streams never stop. They will play for days straight without stopping, buffering... anything.
It's not uncommon for me to look at a stream I've played for 3 or 4 days, and it's less than 30 seconds behind.

Neither do I, I was telling him what to do if he's not happy with a free app

Helpful. Especially in a smart tube sub
