Kill-Switch function on Fire TV Stick

There are only few VPN providers to offer a kill-switch function for their app on the Amazon Fire TV Stick.
I have read many reports online stating that the Fire TV Stick's operating system is designed in such a way that this function—even if it exists at the app level—does not work with absolute reliability.

So, my question is: Can IP-leaks not be completely ruled out, even with the kill-switch activated in the app on the Fire TV Stick?

Thank you for your feedback!

Your opinion on the purchase of -shared-VPN-accounts-

Some marketplaces offer shared-VPN-accounts from different provider.

Is it safe to use these accounts ?

I'm asking primarily for security reasons.

Could you potentially be wrongly targeted if another user does certain things with the same account?

Or is it safe to use a shared account?

What's your opinion on this?

Thank you very much!

Picture quality issues when streaming sports

I use the Tivimate-app and Fire TV Stick.

I’m having a major issue with the picture quality, especially during soccer matches (football).

The white lines on the soccer field look very pixelated.
Also, the stands next to the field flicker frequently.
(Otherwise the picture quality is good and I have no problems with the buffering.)

I’ve already tried activate "Auto Frame Rate" on the Fire TV Stick.
I also tried turning off the TV's "motion settings."
Unfortunately, none of this worked.

I would appreciate any help!

I use the Televizo app on a Fire TV Stick.

Also, the stands next to the field flicker frequently.
(Everything is razor-sharp-faces, the pitch, simply everything— except for the white lines on the field and the stands. And no problems with buffering.)

I’ve already tried activate "Auto Frame Rate" on the Fire TV Stick and within the Televizo app.
I also tried turning off the TV's "motion settings."
Unfortunately, none of this worked.
