AVG stops Popcorn Time

Hello - doesn't help.
Also happens for Stremio. Maybe it will be of some help to know Popcorn Time is based on NW.js, while Stremio or Electron, and the underlying core they share is node.js. They both may use a DHT which makes a lot of network requests that can be mistaken by malicious by AVG and the process suspended.

How does the problem not occur with uTorrent? Maybe the solution is there.

Let me explain the problem exactly - when starting up a stream, the app freezes for about 10-20 seconds or even more, then unfreezes for a few more seconds, but practically AVG makes Stremio and Popcorn Time unusable.

Thanks in advance.

Hello Akis, sorry to know that. Have you tried adding the entire folder of Popcorn Time and the .exe file of it to the AVG's Exception?

Hello , I have a problem with AVG. When I install it prevent popcorn time from streaming movies. After a little search I have found that many others have the same problem and many are complaining (especially on Popcorn Time's forums) while ,as it seems, the only solution is uninstalling AVG. I have tried putting an exception on Popcorn Time but the problem remains. Any suggestions ?
