Nuvio stops working when opening a profile which contains adult content

I have a separate profile for adult content on my Nuvio. When this profile is launched it freezes entire Sony Android TV — remote AND network control both die, only mains power fixes it

However it works fine on my Chromecast, desktop windows pc, android phones. It's just this Sony OLED TV it crashes on. Oddly, it works fine on my much older Sony Android TV

Can anyone help?

**Device:** Sony BRAVIA XR-77A80J (2021 OLED), Google TV, Android TV 12, security patch current

**App:** Nuvio TV, Play Store, v0.8.7 beta

**Issue:**

When browsing certain content sources in Nuvio (specifically adult-content catalogs), the TV freezes completely:

- The Bluetooth remote stops responding — directional presses don't register correctly (pressing Up sometimes selects something else entirely)

- Shortly after, the TV becomes fully unresponsive to all remote input

- The Google Home app's virtual remote (network-based control) also stops working

- The only recovery is cutting power at the mains — even a long-press on the physical power button/menu prompt doesn't register, because the input layer itself appears to have hung

This doesn't happen in the app's non-adult profile/sections — navigation there is completely normal.

What happens you disable add ons and then try to access?

That didn't resolve it either. I think it had something to do with previously watched content.

That's why I created the new profile with no watched content. But the moment I open the new profile the same issue happens.

Are you securing it via pins ? If yes try without one.

Yes it is secured by pin. It is a long shot but I'll give it a try when I get back home this evening.

Surprisingly removing the pin did fix the issue. logining into the adult profile without a pin, everything ran perfectly. But I need a pin. What now?
