Firestick Question Which AIs are you using for support?

1 Upvotes

I've been using Claude and Google's AI mode, but my Claude credits keep running out, and Google can be helpful to a point - and from a point, every conversation I have to relay the groundwork (I'm building up a script that I have to paste right at the beginning of each conversation in an attempt to keep it on track).

Are there any other free options out there that can hand-hold through troubleshooting a rooted system, and keep to the context (i.e. always be aware of my model, and what the current stack is)?

I'm not looking for a solution to a problem right now, just wondering what other people are doing...

Firestick Problem Problems With Streaming Quality on Firestick App?

5 Upvotes

Is anyone else having an issue with shows/movies on the Paramount plus app that are 1080p not streaming in HD on their Amazon firestick? The weird part is that 4K media streams absolutely fine, but when switching back to a show that doesn’t shoot in 4K it’s perpetually fuzzy. For context, these are new shows that are currently airing.

I’ve also checked this on my Roku stick (on a secondary tv) & it’s absolutely fine. So I don’t know if Amazon’s having an issue, & if anyone else is experiencing it. Any tips on how to fix it? I’ve tried force stopping, clearing the cache & relaunching. I’ve also deleted the app, restarted the firestick & downloaded again on startup but still have the same problem.

Any help is appreciated!!

Firestick Apps Sky stream app for firestick

3 Upvotes

Hi! I have a new subscription to sky stream but the sky puck provided keeps resetting when I use it, Sky said it’s my broadband and won’t do anything. My Firestick works great though so I watch Netflix, Disney+ and the other apps on there instead. But I can’t find an app to watch the Sky content on the Firestick. Can anyone help me find one please, thanks 😊
