## Halftime Troubleshooting: Buffer or Freeze at Lap 15?
NHL Game 6 runs long. If buffering starts in the second period — especially during the first power play or after a goal — use this halftime routine:
1. **On MAG Box**: Press and hold **Stop** for 3 seconds.
2. Press **Play** once.
3. Open **Settings** > **Diagnostics** > **Re-authenticate Session**.
4. Wait 10 seconds — the stream auto-resumes at 98% of real-time.
Support engineers monitor every Game 6 stream live. If the issue persists, press **Help** on your remote. The average resolution time is 112 seconds.
Anti-freeze tech survived 12K concurrent streams during NBA Christmas Day — it’s stress-tested for Game 6’s 8.3M projected viewers.
