🔧 Troubleshooting: Fix Buffering, Crashing, or Freezing Issues in TV-Player

Follow these steps to clear the cache, force close the app, and reboot your device. This will resolve most issues without affecting your account, settings, or login information.


🔥 Amazon Fire TV Stick (Fire OS) 1. Clear the TV-Player App Cache
  • Go to Settings (gear icon) > Applications > Manage Installed Applications.

  • Select TV-Player.

  • Tap Clear Cache.

⚠️ Important:
Do NOT tap “Clear Data” — this will erase your login and app settings.

✅ Benefit:
Clearing the cache removes temporary files that can cause glitches and buffering.

2. Force Stop the App
  • On the same screen, tap Force Stop.

✅ Benefit:
This fully shuts down the app so it can restart clean, eliminating any background issues.

3. Reboot the Firestick
  • Go to Settings > My Fire TV (or Device & Software) > Restart, then confirm.

  • OR: Press Select + Play/Pause on your remote for 5–7 seconds.

  • OR: Unplug the Firestick for 15 seconds and plug it back in.

✅ Benefit:
Rebooting clears memory and resets the system without deleting apps or data.

📺 ONN 4K Pro (Android TV) 1. Clear the TV-Player App Cache
  • Go to Settings (gear icon) > Apps > See all apps.

  • Select TV-Player.

  • Tap Clear Cache.

⚠️ Important:
Do NOT tap “Clear Data” — this will remove your login and reset the app.

✅ Benefit:
This removes stored temporary files that often cause buffering or lag.

2. Force Stop the App
  • On the same screen, tap Force Stop.

✅ Benefit:
This fully closes the app and helps clear hidden background issues.

3. Reboot the ONN 4K Pro
  • Go to Settings > Device Preferences (or System) > About > Restart.

  • OR: Unplug the device for 10–15 seconds and plug it back in.

Rebooting resets system memory and often resolves performance issues without affecting apps or data.
