Other than when they announced issues specifically with the servers (authentication would fail, even for standalone apps), the only connection I've been able to note is when there are channel bonding issues with the modem. High error rates make it a bit flakey, and when it tries to bind a "dead" channel 9 at something like 507MHz, it goes completely AWOL on us. Reboot the modem and get clean locks on channels 17-32 (roughly 550MHz to 650MHz)... the app starts behaving again.
Hello,
My experience is that your device needs at least 8 GB of RAM to be able to avoid jttery playback. On my little $300 budget Windows 8.1 PC. (Purchased late in 2014) It's not even watchable. There is constant video lag, like watching still shots. Audio is good. Updating the graphics drivers on that PC makes no difference. It's cheap hardware.
In contrast on my Windows 10 PC with 8GB's of RAM it is very fast with Spectrum TV. (Purchased in late 2015) I think that you need a solid amount of RAM and a fast graphics card to be able to enjoy Spectrum TV. That site needs more RAM than say watching You Tube videos. On my cheap Windows 8.1 PC , I have no other problems watching other video content, such as You Tube videos.
