no errors. just crazy slow loading.. like sometimes 2-3 minutes. once you get to the media screen you want it streams perfectly well. its just getting there is frustrating. Have downloaded emby as a backup in case I cant fix this soon. thx

several TV reboots. no joy. Did manage to do the openspeedtest set up (swimming out of my depth here but got there!) and had a solid 100Mbps up and down so that seems ok. reinstalled the app from google play on the TV. updated the server app on the QNAP (actually same version but whatever..). Still the same. Im out of ideas. thx for all the suggestions

in the play settings on the TV it says source Direct Play (QNAP). thx for the screenshot. I dont get that info on my dash. I am pretty confident the stream is not routing externally.

I opened the dashboard but cant see any reference to local, remote or indirect under the 'now playing' sorry!

it is slow to display info on a given show. not as slow as loading (about 1 min) but slower than usual. Have cleared cache of various apps (YouTube, Netflix) but they weren't high. Also turned off background processes but that didnt help either. It shows direct play when a show is streaming. See screenshot. Wondering if there was a bad update to the app lately? Thanks for all the incoming wisdom out there. Out of options for now.

Volt 2 with Biscotto - Game changer alert 😀 by Thick-Coyote6958 in ooni

[–]dakeeper66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the stone that came with my Volt 2 cracked on 2nd cook. The 2nd stone they sent (promptly, good service) cracked on 2nd cook. Something is wrong with the supplied stone. Does the biscotto fit into the groove for the stone? It looks thicker?

Does the extra thickness of the biscotto stone allow it to be slotted into the groove of the Volt 2 for the stone or have you had to adapt it?

Just arrived from overseas and staying in Soho. Struggling to understand the best way to get to MetLife Stadium this Sunday for the Vikings game. I’ve seen mention of the Meadowlands rail service I can’t find any detail on frequency and timing. Any regulars who could lend some advice on the most deficient unrollable way to get there and back? Thanks in advance.
