Hello,

I have some Questions to the VLC-App v2.1.11, installed on the "Amazon FireTV" (1st Generation) with the "Fire OS" 5.2.6.0.

1) Could you confirm, that the VLC-App crash nearly every 2 hour's. Than I have to restart the "Fire OS".
This issue repeating again and again.
Should I better install the previous App-Version for the latest "Fire OS" 5.2.6.0?

2) After stopping to play the video the screen goes black. Some Minutes later the Audio play suddenly automatic again, without Picture and without any User Action from the holded Stop Position.
Are there any Ideas to avoid this issue?

3) A watched Video doesn't start again in the VLC-App to play a second time.
The loading Process for the Video starts and load long time until only the last Milliseconds will played.
What could the issue produce?

Thanks very match.
Thomas

1) possible. It's a bug in the FireOS, if you cannot update.

2) and 3) should be fixed in 2.5.13, but Amazon is blocking currently the update.
