I have several Roku Ultras...and they have all begun exhibiting a really, really annoying behavior: if you try to fast forward, from any point in a show to any other point, you are returned to the start of the show.
Meaning the fast forward function is utter garbage.
Sometimes this problem can be resolved -- temporarily! -- by doing a software update or restarting the device. But it always reappears.
I'm not sure if this is streaming source specific or not. It seems to show up most frequently with Paramount Plus and Hulu, but I've seen it on most of the other streaming sources I use.
It sure would be nice if Roku could be bothered to fix this bug. Or at least stop selling remotes with fast forward buttons.
I have this exact problem on all my Roku devices. It makes the app almost unusual. The restart of the episode occurs whenever I try to skip intro, or fast forward, or rewind, or hit the back circle/arrow. It’s maddening. I’m going to go to the mattresses with support tomorrow. I’m at wits end. I’ve reinstalled, reset, rebooted and done everything I can imagine.
