Ratings and reviews

The app would stop working suddenly whenever there's a news notification sent out by TVB, and you would have to re-launch the app again to resume watching...., which could take upto several minutes. If the news notifications are frequent, well good luck because there's no way you can watch a complete news session without interruption. This started happening since their recent update to 2.4.0 and it still has not been fixed in the current update 2.4.2. That's 3 updates in a few days and it's only getting you more and more frustrated. Well, please test your app before releasing it.

can you fix the video player? when you play a long video (not live stream, not short clips) after a few clicks the time bar would no longer show up and the player will not respond to any gesture control. So you cant move forward or backward on the video .. it has been like this for months

Too many ads! After loading the app, there is a 5 second ad. Then it TRIES to load the front page, takes forever, change to a different tab... another 5 second ad. Worst thing is, it didnt load the news under that tab. The live news does work and the ads are less intrusive.
