Using an Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K with Oppo


Wanted to find out if anyone is using subject items together or a similar streaming device with the Oppo. I use my Oppo mostly for streaming YouTube. I have a 103D and a 105D. I have tried them both hardwired as opposed to using wifi and each of them will freeze up when streaming YouTube. I have finally had enough and I am not going to take it anymore! 😁 Please don't offer suggestions to fix it because I have tried everything. Yes my firmware is up to date. I want to use another device for streaming and wanted to get an idea of the experience of others using a separate streaming device though their Oppo. Thanks!

The firmware on the Oppo are locked based on January of 2017 (the last Oppo firmware). This means that Youtube and other streaming clients are based on standards from January 2017. Youtube, Netflix and many other streaming services have continually updated their streaming technical interfaces which require client updates. The best way to handle this is to use a dedicated streaming device such as Amazon Fire or Roku. I do remember that Youtube actually changed their service so that the older Internet Explorer 6.0 would not work anymore, so I am not surprised that the Oppo streaming stopped working as well.
