  • Playon Sale Finally
    Out of curiosity, I checked to see if it would allow me to add a year to my existing yearly subscription, but that was not allowed. I expected that outcome since the playon.tv website indicated it was for new yearly subscriptions, "YOUR 1ST YEAR". - Source: Reddit / 9 months ago

You've got a ton of apps running, perhaps even several tabs within each open browser, have you tried recording with fewer apps running to see if this changes the recording quality? - Source: Reddit / almost 2 years ago
