YouTube app not loading after update

If I remember correctly, after a video finishes playing on the YouTube app, it automatically loads and plays the most related video next in line.

I have two XBOXs, both have the same problem...hard locks randomly while using the youtube app.

The problem started right after the latest version of the youtube app came out. The lockup did not start ultil the youtube update and does not occur when not using youtube.

After further review, I have NO DOUBT that there is nothing wrong with my TV, satellite box, HDMI cables or settings. The problem is definitely the updated XBox One TV app.

How do I know? I noticed that the XBox One TV app never launches in 480p whenever another app besides the TV app is in the main window at start-up. In other words, if the YouTube app was the last app used before the XBox was shut down, the XBox will boot
up with the YouTube app in the main window (not the TV app). In that case, the XBox doesn't need to hurry up and put a live TV picture in the main window at start-up. What I've noticed is that the TV app launches just fine (in 720p) whenever it is not pre-loaded
in the main window and it is selected from one of the smaller windows underneath the main window. That tells me the XBox One isn't giving itself enough time to load the TV app properly at start-up when it's in the main window. Clearly, the system update
was designed to make the TV app load faster than before, but I'm afraid the extra speed causes a flawed picture that is displayed in 480p.

When given enough time to load after start-up, the TV app works fine. That also explains why cutting off the satellite box and cutting it back on again upgrades the corrupted 480p picture to 720p instantly. It's just giving the XBox more time to load the
TV app, and then re-sending the signal from the satellite box after it does.

In conclusion, The TV app needs to be updated again to fix this problem.

You can bypass the black screen by logging out of your gamertag, launching the game/app and then signing back in to your gamertag.
