ABC Player - wondering if someone has an answer for me

[diannenet]

I downloaded the ABC Player from the app store and it works GREAT for a while (it has already finished buffering) and then the screen digitizes except for about 10% at the top. If I wait it out, eventually the screen goes back to normal. Is it something with the app or is it a defect on my iPad2? I've only had the iPad for about a month.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I've used it a few times for maybe 3 to 4 minutes at a time with no issues.

Well, I was watching the final episode of Grey's Anatomy so that was an hour long program. I finally got to the point where I would watch about 10 minutes or whenever it would go digital on me and stop it. Then I'd come back to it a few minutes later and start it up again and wait for the screen to turn normal. I FINALLY finished watching it. Definitely took longer than the actual hour though.

Sorry I couldn't be more help. Hopefully someone who's watched for longer periods can chime in.

I have been using the app for a couple of months now. Haven't had any issues with it.

could it be the commercial breaks?

 

[diannenet]

No, it's not the commercial breaks as they are far and few between. It happens in between the commercial breaks. Maybe it was just that show. I'll try another one and see what happens. Thanks for all the responses!

I believe this may be an iPad issue. Mny of my movies via several apps digitize randomly.

I just finished watching the last episode of Brothers and Sisters and the same thing happened on my iPad. Of the whole 45 minute show I'd guess it digitized a total of 5 minutes over about 3 or 4 times. My iPad is new this week.

Glad to hear it isn't just me. Ive only had my iPad 2 for about a month so would have returned it if it was an isolated case. Thanks again for all the feedback.
