nebskii 🇪🇺🏳️🌈🐝 (@nebskii) reported from Urmston, EnglandThe @NOWTV app has stopped working on my @LGUK smartTV, getting error PL-0 whenever I try to play content. Any solution other than resetting the TV to factory settings (NOT doing that as I'll lose my other app data)? Tried reinstalling app, no fix.
