Peacock TV -- anyone else have tech issues with streaming it?

I'm the OP of this thread from back last year! The streaming issues I had with Peacock did resolve themselves and I haven't had those issues at all for a long time. Get it on our Roku TV, by the way, not Firestick etc. In fact it's now super reliable for me, however....

For a long time now, Amazon has completely sucked (just...doesn't load the "tiles" for shows, only gray boxes, and sometimes rebooting it does not help. Just gray, no images to click on.). Anyone else getting that glitch?

And Hulu will toss us all the way out of a show, then instantly start a different episode of whatever show we're watching. For instance, we're 40 minutes into an episode of something, the screen goes black and the Hulu loading bar pops up, and the next thing we see is a scene in the middle of a different episode of the same series.

Zero issue with our internet or other streaming services or even the free streaming services. It's not us. Peacock's peachy now, at least. The issue is definitely with Amazon and Hulu, especiallly as each has its own very specific glitch that's not like the other's glitch. Ideas, folks?

Have you checked if there are app updates on your device? How old is your Roku?

I have problems every day with the video & audio being out of sync on the Dan Patrick Show. I have tried everything suggested by tech support. I have a hard time believing that it is the fault of my Roku because for the most part, all other programming is fine.

I'm the OP of this old thread and find it amusing that it keeps popping back to life. For the record -- zero issues with Peacock now, and it's fine. Peacock seems to have had teething issues at the start when I was posting that. (But Hulu still throws us out of things we're watching and suddenly starts entirely different episodes! Weird.)

For the PP above, if your audio sync issue happens only with that one show and no other shows on Peacock, I'd complain loudly to the show's producers rather than Peacock. Sounds like it's a show issue, not a Peacock issue, maybe.

This has been an issue for years. I finally just dropped it last month. Really a shame because I’ll miss the shows.

Yes, Peacock has been terrible lately. Some channels under their Live option are worse than others.

I just upgraded to Hulu +Live and have cancelled all other services except Netflix.

I'm the OP of this thread from four years ago and was surprised to see it here again today!

Peacock has been great and reliable since those initial glitches in 2929, but it's Hulu that now has its own unique weirdness: I click to begin an episode of a show, and am taken to another episode entirely--and often to the middle or end of that wrong episode! Occasionally, to a different show altogether. Only Hulu does this. No winning with streaming services. If one isn't glitching, another one is!

HA! Not 2929 but 2020 above. I am not a time traveler.

Peacock is blurry for me on the google Chromecast but prime and Netflix are fine.
