I notice slowness and/or “memory getting low” warnings after using Youtube for months and now in latest firmware release even BBC iPlayer app does it. Just had it take several minutes to even start trying to play a movie. A hard reboot (long press power off) is the only cure. Also some files refuse to play when memory low, but not a cure for the mp4 bugs reported elsewhere at length.
So much software has been piled into this box of late, it must be riddled with new bugs, someof them memory/resource leaks. Without a proper OS underneath maintaining resources (ie like Windows & Handles) misbehaving apps will always cause problems unless they are thouroughly debugged - and this app code is 3rd party. WD have enough issues debugging and testing their own code!
