I have the Hopper Plus and Samsung smart TV about two years old are my main two devices. Not for Paramount but I also have much older Fire Stick, Roku, and a Google Cast.
On my Samsung TV the Apple TV looks beautiful always works perfectly and amazing picture quality. I can't afford an Apple TV box, but I imagine it's worth it! They have some great shows as well.
I figure some good sales are coming soon. Costco had them at $99.99 a little while ago.
Yeah, I've never had a problem on either of our FireTV 4K sticks, nor on either of our Roku 4K TV's.
But I like Star Trek and the only one that has it is Paramount now. But I can cancel it when there is nothing playing I like series wise.
They have a lot more then Star Trek on, Yellowstone stuff, Seal Team, Evil, Tulsa King, Mayor of Kingstown, new Criminal Minds: Evolution, Halo and The Offer, which is about the making of The Godfather, it was great.
It was renewed a month before the first episode.

My Roku Ultra is perfect with P+ and everything else, but when I use the Google TV app on my Sony, it takes a little bit to ramp up the picture quality, on other apps also.
One wonders what the hell Paramount is thinking to build an app like that. Can you think of any other apps that do this? I can't.
When you say 'ramp up' are you speaking of the time it takes to actually get to the UI after clicking on the app or the time it takes to get to a clear screen? I have noticed that it does take some time to get to the UI on Paramount+. All the rest of the apps that I use seem to work quickly.
I vote for the app itself. This presumably is why my initial resolution now starts out so abysmally low, whereas it was perfect from the start when I was subbed through Amazon Prime. That was a hard cutover on Nov 30th.
I use the Paramount+ standalone app and don't have any issue with immediate clear screen resolution. But like I said it takes a bit of time to get to the UI itself.I vote for the app itself. This presumably is why my initial resolution now starts out so abysmally low, whereas it was perfect from the start when I was subbed through Amazon Prime. That was a hard cutover on Nov 30th.
Now, via my independent sub and separate Paramount+ app, it really sucks and takes a number of minutes to improve. CGA graphics, anyone?
Huh? The User Interface? Oh! I had to look back to your previous post.
Let's put it this way, I go to my Apple TV and then go to the Paramount+ app and click the tile. It takes an inordinate amount of time for the app to actually come up so I can select something from it to watch. Once I get to that screen everything else is perfect.
Thanks. I scrolled upward and figured it out, as you can see from my edited post above. My FireTV Stick (regular 4K version not Max) brings up the program tiles fairly rapidly. It's the video programs themselves that look like hell for an extended time. This did not happen when I was subbed through Amazon Prime even on the same hardware. Since your AppleTV doesn't exhibit this issue, I think the problem is specific to the Paramount+ app on the FireTV Stick.
