Hi we just bought this system two weeks ago and when we are either watching a video on You tube or on face book it will freeze.  Why would that happen?  Also from time to time the screen will go black then come back on.  Help

@Bigwow 

In both the cases you mentioned, you are streaming video from the Internet -- and with that, you are going to run into BUFFERING problems -- where the video stops while more of it is being downloaded.

 

To solve that, you need a faster Internet connection and you also need to be connected with an Ethernet cable, not WiFi.
