John GruberThe Amazon Prime app for Apple TV has some great features (e.g.: X-Ray tells you the actors in a scene when you pause) but is the cheapest-looking app I’ve used on any platform in decades.
Chad C.@gruber Oh have you had the pleasure of skipping back in a scene a few minutes to rewatch—only to have playback trouble so badly you have to restart the app? Infuriating every time I skipped back during The Peripheral because I couldn’t understand the dialog. Which is also infuriating.
@dominocollege That happened to me during The Peripheral too, for the same “what did they just say?” reason. Also, it would crash frequently after rewinding to toggle captions, too.
@gruber yep. Same thing. Maddening. And also for whatever reason YouTube TV app also got worse this past year with black screens on launch (required forced quits).
sankaraThat particular thing happens with Netflix as well for me.
