@RokuSupport I have a relatively new Premiere running 9.3.0 - 4170-91. Playback is horrible or non existent on NowTV, Netflix, and Prime. If I reboot the device it work for a short time. The channels play perfectly on my PS4 on the same network. Where can I log a support ticket?

I have also done a speedtest while Roku is failing and it's 15-20Mbps down / 3Mbps up. So this is not a network issue. I have also tried to update the NowTV app and it says it's current. It has been this way for about 24 hours now.

The oil cooler hoses made yesterday, to finish that video - hard work until you check the right way to do the job!
Just finished After Lift S2, brilliant, but bloody hell, bit of an emotional hammer in parts. At the end of every episode, up or down, I think there's one reason Ricky Gervais's character is still going, and that's the dog.

This week it's the oil cooler setup - and making up the hoses. Yes, I made it stupidly difficult for myself before checking the rulebook (as always, there's a lesson in there so left my foolishness in). youtu.be/0wg5K77GjG8

Before I head back to the garage, if you’re looking for something to listen to, the latest @AutomoviePod with Al Clark (and an exclusive, apparently) is well worth a listen. Al thinks @Thecarmagdriver would make a great guest too.
This is a massive long shot, but if you know what exactly these are, where the hell can I buy them in the UK? I’ve tried searches, eBay, Amazon, fixing suppliers, 3D printing suppliers. Might be wholesale only, but on the off chance that anyone knows a retail UK supplier...

When I check a small bead roller was about £140-£160. Crimping plier £19, have at it with a grinder and the result, not as tidy, but it’ll be hidden in a silicone joiner.

Taken advantage of working from home to practice with the TIG, in my commuting time, still a long way to go, but getting through the 924 build jobs. #lockdownlearning

Fresh nonsense from the 924 S Turbo build - making a custom hanger and finishing the exhaust system! youtu.be/D-exRikwFWw
Good ride today. Accompanied by another great @AutomoviePod - the Italian Jobs, and yes, I do really enjoy the 2003 one. Glad @chrisratcliff made the connection to Hyperdrive, sightly surprised @martinspain didn't call that one out. It's on most platforms you care about, listen!

Well, god damn. This, people, is how it's done. Okay, it's one way... anything but long term storage and a balance sheet.
There is something so cool about this track day beaten M3 CSL. It was covered in Thruxton stickers too. #westlondonbeater

More lockdown quality.

Me and TIG welding, we're not friends, but we're learning to not hate each other. After the first V Band flange, that's about as happy as I've been since lockdown started (it's an exhaust fitting, less of the smut). youtu.be/9uifENRhvKcout

Finally got round to reading (what else are sunny lock-down bank holidays for?) @TheDuisbergKid’s interesting little book that I bought a while back. It’s exactly what the back cover blurb and @sniffpetrol’s quote say it is. 👍
Just brilliant. For anyone that doesn't follow or know Tailenders, Jimmy is England fast bowler (the greatest) and shredder aficionado, James Anderson. As for Mattchin... well, you're better off in the dark, there.
So, the Tailenders Quiz was an even bigger shambles than we ever thought possible. Instagram thought Jimmy was hacked and closed his account and we only managed 8 questions in 90 mins. Oh and Mattchin couldn’t work out that selfie mirrors words...🤦🏻‍♂️
Watching Flipping Bangers on MotorTrend, this episode is on an early Metro with only 16,000 miles on it, and yet they're having to take dents out of the front bumper.

It took the lockdown to get it out of him, but some sense at last...
Hobnob is a 309 GTi. Dark chocolate Hobnob is a 309 GTi Brooklands, obviously. 205 GTi a jammy dodger and the CTi a pink wafer Might I also point out that a 405 Mi16 is a Jaffa Cake. Don’t you people know this already?!! Basic biscuit/Peugeot hot hatch facts FFS!
