    1. 22. Juni 2026 um 14:22 UTCinvestigating

      Wir untersuchen derzeit ein Problem, das verhindert, dass Benutzer einiger Samsung-TV-Modelle die PBS-App öffnen und laden. Benutzer können berichten, dass sie einen soliden blauen bildschirm, einen dunklen bildschirm oder ein ladesymbol sehen, das beim Öffnen der app nie abgeschlossen wird. Wir glauben, dass die Mehrheit der Benutzer auf 2017 Samsung TV-Modelle sind, die meisten oft mit einem "M" oder "MU" in der Modellnummer notiert. Andere Geräte, die die PBS-App und die nach 2017 veröffentlichten Samsung-Fernseher unterstützen, scheinen von diesem Problem nicht betroffen zu sein. Wir werden diese Seite weiterhin aktualisieren, während unsere Untersuchung fortgesetzt wird.

    2. 23. Juni 2026 um 18:42 UTCmonitoring

      Ein Hotfix wurde veröffentlicht, um dieses Problem zu beheben. Die Geräte der Zuschauer erhalten automatisch den Hotfix und aktualisieren auf die neueste Version der PBS-App mit dem festen Erlebnis. Für einige Zuschauer wird dies sofort sein, aber für alle, die immer noch auf das Problem stoßen, empfehlen wir ihnen, ihre App später heute zu überprüfen, um Samsung mehr Zeit zu geben, das App-Update auf ihr Gerät zu liefern. Wir werden heute und morgen weitere Berichte überwachen, um die Leistung des Hotfixes zu bewerten.

      Wir haben weiterhin Nachrichten von Benutzern erhalten, dass es immer noch Probleme beim Laden der PBS-App auf Samsung-Fernseher gibt, die 2017 veröffentlicht wurden. Wir prüfen das Thema erneut und werden die Berichte weiterhin überwachen.

      Wir arbeiten weiter an einem weiteren Hotfix, um das Problem anzugehen, das die Zuschauer auf Samsung 2017-Modellen betrifft, und wir zielen morgen auf die Veröffentlichung des zweiten Hotfix ab. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt sind uns keine Workarounds für die betroffenen Geräte bekannt, und dieser Fix hat weiterhin hohe Priorität für unsere Teams.

      We're investigating an issue where the livestream player is experiencing intermittent playback issues on web browsers on both mobile and desktop platforms. Users may report seeing the play button behaving strangely on the player, the player starting and stopping, or other issues related to playback. Because the issues are intermittent, not all viewers will encounter an issue, and refreshing the page may or may not help with playback.

      Users nationwide may be prevented from opening and using the PBS app on Amazon Fire Tablet devices temporarily. This is related to a new age verification requirement that went into effect in Texas today. There is currently an issue accessing the Amazon’s backend system that verifies the Amazon account user age settings. We are working with Amazon to resolve this as quickly as possible. Until the issue is resolved, users on Amazon Fire Tablets will see a message that they need to update the device’s operating system in order to use the PBS app. Updating the app will not resolve this issue. The issue will be resolved automatically once the Amazon age system becomes accessible by the app.

    2. 8. Juni 2026 um 15:32 UTCresolved

      All users on Amazon Fire Tablets have had their access to the PBS app restored.

      We've identified an issue with video playback on the PBS app for Samsung TV, VIZIO SmartCast TV, and Comcast boxes. Users may report that videos do not complete toward the end of their runtime, and the video instead returns them to an earlier point in the video or the beginning of the video.

      A hotfix has been released to address issues with playback on the PBS app for Samsung TV, VIZIO SmartCast TV, and Comcast boxes. Viewers can check to see if they're on the latest app version with the hotfix via the Settings menu inside the PBS app: the newest version with the fix is version g882.

      We are investigating reports from Passport members stating their Passport benefits are not being recognized on the PBS.org website although they are signed in with an account with an active Passport benefit. The members report seeing the prompt to become a member instead of the video player while signed in with their correct account. This incident does not affect all Passport members and appears inconsistently even with the same member account. Members can try signing out and signing back in on the site multiple times as a possible workaround while we look into this issue.

      We are still investigating the issue and believe it is related to users on specific Apple devices (Mac, iPhone, and iPad) using a web browser. It also appears that members who encounter this issue can try refreshing the video page until they are able to see and use the video player. Members on the iPhone and iPad who are using their mobile browsers can download and use the PBS app.

Some partners received the local interstitials and may have aired them, but any reporting between 3/17 and 3/21 should be considered incomplete.
