tVOS 17.0 Twitch App VOD video goes black after 5 minutes of watching

The Twitch Apple TV app does not work on the new tvOS 17.0 OS just released. When watching a VOD the video will suddenly go all black but the sound will continue playing.

The Apple TV Twitch App is literally unusuable in this state. Please fix this.

    Screen goes black after few minutes. Annoying. Tried everything
  • Phanpi_ commented  ·   ·  Report

    I’m starting to have the same issue on live streams as per today 🤷‍♂️

  • DarthVap8r commented  ·   ·  Report

    Why hasn’t twitch posted anything about this? Can you people not fix your own app?
  • DrHellbenders commented  ·   ·  Report

    Still a problem. It’s November 21, 2023.

    This has been up for two months, though the issue has existed longer.

    Can we get a fix?

    Not even asking you to re-add the creatures you pulled, fix the **** UX, or anything. Just make the video work, please.

    I wonder how many people have unvoted JUST to stop getting daily emails even though they are still experiencing this issue.

  • liquorlogic commented  ·   ·  Report

    Getting the same issue. Makes the app unusable. Please fix ASAP else I will move to another app.
  • darkwolfgar commented  ·   ·  Report

    Getting this issue very couple minutes, so frustrating!! Has been an issue for well over a month now

  • tannybanny commented  ·   ·  Report

    I am having this issue constantly! VODs are unwatchable. Please fix this. We should able to watch twitch on Apple TV.

    Still an issue, and now affecting livestreams too.

  • thebreadpusher commented  ·   ·  Report

    Screen goes black. Audio still plays. When video does come back it's super sped up like it's correcting for the time screen was black. This is happening on live streams. Please fix the issue.

    I'm really glad that the streamers I follow post their VODs to YouTube, so I can get an actually decent viewing experience. Scrubbing and UX in general is easier, too.

    The Twitch app is painful in so many ways, but the fact that this issue has been going on for THIS long, across multiple Apple TVs and across resolutions and HDMI cables...

    Get it together, guys. You trying to ignore your users as much as Plex ignores theirs or something?
  • enemyofusall commented  ·   ·  Report

    Ok I lied. It also affects livestreams as well. I thought it was just vods, sadly not.

    Issue still occuring despite app reinstall and system reboot, setting DNS to 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8, resetting the AppleTV.

    Why on earth would anyone subscribe to twitch no-ads universally if you can't use the app?

    Your number one show is Critical Role, you know this. It's long. We need to be able to watch VOD. I want to support things I enjoy that are long format on your platform. Why are you making it hard for me to want to give you money? Fix the bug.

    Can we report this problem other places as well so someone can fix it?
