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!

Well, I have to say the Firestick has transformed the Oppo. Not only does YouTube perform as is intended but the picture quality is better as well. A big thumbs up for the Firestick!

I have considered that but I can stream YouTube on my laptop using wifi without a glitch even with others on the system. Yet when I try it on my Oppo with no one else home, it freezes up. I have not been able to explain it. The firmware is current on both machines.

 Now that makes sense. I recently had to replace my iPad because Tidal updated their service and it was no longer compatible with the OS I was running and the iPad could no longer be upgraded. What a pain. So it sounds like my conclusion was right when I decided to try the firestick.
