Upgrade to watch error message

Get the error message occasionally when starting my DIRECTV service through appletv. 

The app is updated.  So is the appletv app. It only fixes itself when I turn the tv on and off a number of times. 

ready to switch services.

We'd like to further investigate, @Lamagnat. Which channels or programs are displaying the error message? Rizza, DIRECTV Community Team

All channels are affected. There seems to be no trigger that I notice. It goes away after multiple times turning TV on and off and going in and out of other services like Prime and Netflix.
