Pluto TV Not Working on My Big Screen
Self | March 23, 2021 | PJ-Comix

Posted on 03/23/2021 6:28:57 AM PDT by PJ-Comix

Although I can still access Pluto TV on my computer, I still can't get it on my big screen TV. It has been about a week since I was able to get it on my big screen. I use Amazon Fire to get my channels.

Does anybody else out there have this problem? And how can I get this resolved.

Pluto TV is great not only for channels such as One America News but it also has a big library of movies and old TV shows. I sure hope I can get it up and running again on my big screen.

I hope Amazon’s not blocking it. That would explain why you can still get it on your computer.

Try checking for updates on both the FireTV app and the Pluto app.

Sometimes I find that solves similar problems.

Looking to FReepers to solve technical issues? You're a brave soul. Upp, oop. I mean, you've come to the right place.

Y'all wait for me to make a fresh pot of coffee before you get started.

Okay. I'm ready. Commence.

Pluto TV is owned by CBS and would suck up most of my computer’s resources causing freezing.

I have no problems with ustv247.tv

I have a problem with a channel on my Apple TV called Classic Arts Showcase. They changed their satellite at the end of February, and the channel has not loaded since on both my Apple TV and Roku. I can still watch it by bringing up the internet version on my iPhone and then transferring that to my Apple TV via Airplay. Maybe you can try that?

Try removing the app and reinstalling it. I have to do that with Pluto periodically on my mom’s Roku in order for it to keep working.

Unplug the fire stick. Turn off your tv. Wait 30 seconds. Then plug it all back in and turn it on.

These days that represents your entire ability to service technology in your home.

Something “upgraded” and the TV and stick are out of synch. Be prepared to log back into everything.

Did it get sucked up into the new Paramount Network?

Go get a ROKU and you’re problems will be over.

Maybe the app data needs to be deleted? I don’t use Fire stuff, but it runs on Android, so it should be similar to a phone where you can delete all the stored data for the app somewhere in the settings.

Probably about adding new platforms in the software to increase the ads you see. Never trust the MSM. They only follow the $$$.
