RedBull TV app buffering and poor quality

The RedBull TV app is the only one that constantly keeps buffering or reduces quality on my Apple TV. My download speed is 807Mbps so its not my data line. Every other app like Netflix and Amazon Prime is fine. Ive tried reducing from 4K to 1080p but still the same. Is anyone else facing this issue?

Apple TV 4K, tvOS 17

Apple TV+ quality/buffering issues Why is Apple TV+ so bad, quality wise?! I have tried on firestick 4K, Apple TV 4K, native Panasonic tv app and on all it takes an age to load, then plays really blurry and if I’m lucky may get up to HD/4K quality for a while before it buffers. It’s really frustrating. I have all the usual ie Netflix, Prime, Disney and all of those work without fault and stream perfectly. My connection is wireless at around 200 up/down so I know that’s not the issue and it seems more like the Apple TV+ service itself. any ideas?

Apple TV + is annoying slow on Apple TV 4K second Gen Recently noted that movies and series struggle to play on apple tv + on my Apple TV 4K second gen. The app buffers for more than 1 minute and if i’m lucky, the movie starts by it’s blurry. No such problems on Netflix, Amazon Prime, YouTube and Disney +. My Speedtest is 500meg up and 250meg down. My service provider tried everything but my problem persists.

Apple TV+ is unusable due to buffering issues Attempting to watch anything on Apple TV + is an exercise in frustration. WHEN a show will load, the picture quality is noticeably poor. It is rare to go longer than 10 minutes without the feed stopping to buffer. But lots of times I try to start watching something and the buffering begins right away, lasting so long that I decide to do something else. This happens on both of my Apple TV 4Ks, and on my Mac mini with an M4 chip, and on my iPhone 12. Every other streaming app works perfectly- YouTube, Hulu, Max, Tubi, whatever. My devices and apps are fully up to date. I have 1 Gb internet service and no issues on that front.

if it was me then I would try to close / terminate the app and start it again

otherwise maybe pull the plug on the appletv for 30sec and let it start up again

Restarted, unplugged, uninstalled and reinstalled the app also, I've also contacted RedBull as it seems its only related to their app
