Lagging channel changing +... on Optik TV

Anyone else experiencing a 7+ second lag when changing channels, switching between apps and other such functions.

It's also accompanied by a blank screen with a green rotating circle in the bottom right corner. 

Appears to have started and become a regular pain over last few weeks.

    See below a Telus AI ( Automatic Idiot) response to my post a few days back...nice f'in try! Onto the next prior to my contact renewal...Au revoir!

    Here's a tip...put more effort into providing a quality product in the space you (are trying to) compete in! 

    Your topic recently received 6 replies on TELUS Neighbourhood. If you got the answer you needed, mark it as the accepted solution.

    Over and done!!!

     

  • Just spit balling, perhaps hardware issue with Internet feed (i.e) modem and booster ancillary equipment too tired. 

  • Fortunate 😉

    And just for clarity for any Telus Support reader...every remote function lags...previous, back button, guide functions, ch up,/down, etc...literally ever time you press a button inevitably there's a 7+ second delay.

      Yes issue is ongoing. 

      I have (3) boxes. Tried unplugging/ rebooting, etc. Reluctant to do factory reset as it seems to be a system issue as opposed to box specific.

        The issue is continuing for me as well. I use 2 boxes regularly and about 2 weeks after receiving I went back to hard wired ethernet cable as opposed to wireless hoping this would speed up overall performance. It hasn't. I too did an unplug and reboot with no success.

  • Likewise...Never a dull moment with the Telus gear to be sure.

    Perhaps a related issue/symptom...a number of my series recording are  now showing (2) recordings of same program/timeslot. One with title details and another with E2100000000 in title detail area...go figure???

    Wanted to add screenshot...appears Telus has removed the attachment feature from this format...go figure again???

  • Yes, I am experiencing the same thing since about a week ago. This is in addition to the overall new AndroidTV box being a complete disappointment in comparison to the previous 4K box. May have to look at another provider once my contract is up in 2 months.
