DirecTV: Playback skips to next track after approximately 1-2 minutes

[alexander7]

For three weeks now Pandora stops mid way in every song and switches to the next song. Its been three weeks now. No help from Pandora. They blame the TV manufacturing or the cable company.

It appears that DirecTV couldn't care less. They have done nothing to correct what should be an easy bug.

For some reason, I can listen to Pandora through Direct TV on a non-Samsung TV without skipping, while the Samsung TV skips. Is it a Samsung thing?

No-- I have a 3 year old LG-- same problem! DirecTV just **ahem**, with ever increasing prices & poor customer service. AND, they dropped America Online last year. I'm thinking about cancelling.

This cannot be that complicated.  Yet seems pandora is incompetent at execution of the remedy.  This started with the Directv update well over a month ago. Should have been fixed on day one.

The problem seems to be with DirecTV, since Pandora works fine on our phones & laptops.  Ed
