    LG is rolling out an update for their 2018 TV models that addresses this playback error. Please check your TV's update feature for the fix.

    Found in the LG forum that uninstalling the VUDU app fixed this issue. Watched UHD (owned) Deadpool start to finish, no problems. To uninstall the Vudu app, hit the Home button on your remote to pull up the app launcher. Hover over the Vudu app in the launch and long-hold the remote center button. This should allow you to move the app in the launcher. You may have to hit Close to exit the move function. You should then see an X above the Vudu app. Click on the X and confirm that you want to delete Vudu. Hit the app launcher (home) button again and go to the LG content store. Search Vudu and then filter by apps. Select the Vudu app and reinstall. I also updated to WebOS version 5.10.20 (was at 5.10.03). Be sure to restart your TV after updating webOS. I have the OLED55E8PUA.

    This is a helpful workaround unless you want to watch a Paramount movie, or a movie from another distributor who does not work with Movies Anywhere.

    Still happening as of 10/4/2019. Vudu support has been unresponsive to my support ticket.

    Same issue here. Any word from the Devs? Currently the only device and app I can use to view Dolby Vision on Vudu.

    Yeah I couldn?t even get through the last half hour of Avengers a couple days ago. Probably stopped 5 times. This is really getting ridiculous at this point.

    There was a VUDU App update (dated 8/22) for all 3 of my LG TV's the other day. I watched 2 full movies on my 2018 LG this weekend with no issues (knock on wood). So maybe its fixed.

    My original solution to delete extra apps to free up cache memory appears to have worked really well for a few weeks then gone back to crashing often.

    I now have a different solution which is a little thinking outside the box. Its called Movies Anywhere. This service links to multiple movie providers including Vudu and Google Play/YouTube. This means any movies you already bought on Vudu can be watched on the LG TV YouTube app! The good news is the YouTube app works very well with none of the LG Vudu app issues. The bad news is it only works for purchases movies, free content doesn't apply.
    It wont cost you anything but you need to use/create a gmail account. Below are the basics steps if you wish to do it.

    1. Create a Movies Anywhere account.
    2. Link your Vudu account to Movies Anywhere
    3. If you don't already have one, create a Google Play account. This works perfectly for iOS users as well. You don't need an Android device to sign up for Google Play.
    4. Link your Google Play account to Movies Anywhere.
    5. Download the LG Youtube app and login with the same Gmail account you used for Google Play.
    6. All your purchased Vudu Movies will now be in the YouTube 'Library => Purchases' section!


    Your purchases remain in Vudu and any new ones will show up in the YouTube app in minutes. But you can use either app to watch, or you can ditch the Vudu app.
    an updated solution: hope this helps someone

    I have this EXACT same issue on my 2018 LG (OLED65C8PUA). Also, not sure if its related, but all of my 4K movies show up as having Dolby Vision/Atmos on the Vudu movie title screen and I'm pretty sure I have some older movies (Batman Returns. Matrix, for example) that I don't believe have this encoding. In any case, they play fine for a while, but then the "Sorry, the video player has stopped working" error comes up after a few minutes. I'm using a wireless connection with over 150mb download speeds (at least 100mb download at the TV based on YouTube 4K video stats). Btw, no issues when playing this content on Fandango app (but on this app they playback as HDR only - no Dolby Vision/Atmos). An no issues whatsoever playing Dolby Vision or standard HDR content on Netflix.

    Is this a known issue, or something somehow unique to my setup? I've uninstalled and reinstalled the Vudu app, which didn't seem to help. I also opened a support ticket but just received a generic response that seemed to be generated by a bot.

    Any update from LG or VUDU on this? Amazes me I have no issues with my 2016 or 2017 LG TV's but my brand new 2018 one can't play a single movie using the VUDU app to completion. Ya, I can use the Amazon or GooglePlay app but honestly they are horrible compared to the VUDU App (though at least they work).

    Are you guys running the audio through a home theater system of some sort (soundbar, audio receiver, etc)? Have you tried using the built-in speakers to see if the problem goes away?

    Alternatively, have you guys tried using a different HDMI cable? I only use Monoprice Certified Premium High Speed HDMI Cables with my 65" C8, and I've never experienced any of the issues you guys have had. My C8 passes the audio to an Onkyo receiver.

    I'm having the same issues with my 2018 LG C8. Every few minutes, the VUDU app crashes and I get the error message. Very irritating. I've unplugged the TV with no luck. This app fails to do the one thing it's intended to do...
