Hi SamanthaF, Thank you for sharing your experience. Buffering during streaming is typically related to internet speed or signal strength. This can happen when your connection isn’t able to deliver data quickly enough for smooth playback. We recommend the following steps to help improve streaming performance: 1. Use a 5GHz Wi-Fi connection, if available 2. Try a wired LAN connection for more stability 3. Reposition your router to minimize obstacles between it and the TV 4. Make sure your TV is running the latest firmware (Settings > Support > Software Update) 5. Run Device Care to optimize performance: Home > left directional key > Settings > Support > Device Care > Start Device Care If buffering continues, you may want to contact your internet service provider to check your current speed or explore upgrade options. There are also several settings you can adjust to improve motion clarity. Go to: Home > left directional key > Settings > All Settings > Picture > Expert Settings, and review these key settings: Picture Clarity Settings • Off: Disables all motion enhancement • Auto: Automatically adjusts motion clarity based on content • Custom: Enables manual control of: o Judder Reduction: Smooths motion in film-based content o LED Clear Motion: Increases sharpness during fast movement o Noise Reduction: Helps reduce distortion in lower-quality sources We hope these settings help improve your viewing experience, especially with fast-moving content.
