ABC iView watching live news stops and starts with spinning circle

[Charlie F]

I’ve just got home after being away 2 years, and got the tv out of storage. When we try and watch the news live in the. Morning every few minutes the video and sound stop and then after a few seconds the circle appears and starts spinning. Then the program starts again and it’s fine for a little while, and then it stops again.

I have checked for updates of the TV OS and iView (2021 is the latest)

If I use iView on my iOS device and then airplay it to the tv it works fine with no problems. If I watch any program on iview that would have been prerecorded, even if I’m watching it “live” it’s fine.

I see a few people were having a problem with all iView programs back in 2022, but they resolved. 
 

can anybody suggest any solutions?

 

Thanks

Where was it stored, and what were the minimum and maximum temperatures there?

The reason I ask, is that electronic components have a maximum storage temperature, as well as a min and max operating temperature. There will be NO MIL SPEC components in a domestic device, so some degradation may have occurred, or even static damage (ESD) from a nearby storm.

Just in our garage, guessing at temps but no lower than 0 and no higher than 35could be the problem, except it only happens on live to air on ABC via iview app and other channel apps are fine
