Re: [Solved] Playback Error on Paramount+ – Check for an update

I've had Paramount+ (P+) for 3 years and it has been working with no problems. However, for the past week, I have had a hard time streaming shows and movies. If I'm lucky, when I first open P+, it will let me stream 1-2 shows and no other shows until the next day (sometimes it doesn't). When I try to watch the next episode or another show, I get the spinning circle but no show. Note that I can stream P+ shows on computer, Xbox, phone. It is only on Roku Streaming Stick+ 4K that has the problem.

I have logged out/in, deleted/installed the P+ App, updated P+ App and Roku, unplugged/plugged in the Roku Stick/TV.

My system:
Roku Streaming Stick+ 4K (Model 3811X), Software version: 14.0.4, Build 12221, plugged into a surge protector via the supplied power supply.
Paramount Plus Version 9.3, Build 20241107.
All my equipment are plugged into a non-sacrificial surge protector.

Anyone else having this problem? Is there a fix?

Roku, please help!!

      Hi Roku Community users,

      UPDATE 12/12 From Paramount Plus:

      Thank you for your patience while we investigated the issue. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and delay, but we now have an update.

      We’ve discovered that many subscribers using Amazon EERO or Google Mesh are experiencing similar issues. It appears that EERO is blocking the site "doubleclick.net," which functions like an ad blocker and may be causing the problem.

      To resolve this, please add "doubleclick.net" to the trusted website list on your EERO device. This should help prevent further disruptions.

      If you need assistance with adding this website, you can follow this link for a step-by-step guide: EERO Secure Support.

      Thank you again for your understanding and cooperation! We're here to support you every step of the way.
