    I was just rethinking this and it dawned on me about something kens said a few days ago...

    The specs for the box should specify Hardware decoder for Mpeg4 h.264

    I use an H96Max Android STB ($150) 4Gig ram 32Gig storage/ Quad main processor/ dual graphics processor

    I used the z7+ as my main box up until I switched over to the Prime 2 days ago. I didn't have that issue.

    Its messed up that the oldest mag runs smooth and the hyped up z7 runs like crap... Very discouraging at best... Just frustrated!.. Tried m3u and the same issues occur seemingly more frequent than before... Ready for something new . Been looking around the web and the z7 issue seems to be more prominent on all stream services.. Thinking I put my money on the wrong horse.. Just aggravated, I'm sure there is a fix for the issue somewhere. Been looking all day.. Is the new nvidia box any good? I'm ready to mothball this z7!

    Increase your Buffer size(time) in your settings.
    You could also Install an external player (MX Player has the most recent releases of Video Codecs for most Chipsets).

    *Will be getting a Formuler STB soon and will be able to review and test.
