Fubo no longer showing thumbnails in fast forward playback

Hello

Just within the last 2 weeks, when I fast forward or rewind a recorded show on the FUBO app on  the ROKU streaming stick or 4k streaming stick, the thumbnails no longer appear.  However, if I fast forward or rewind on FUBO app on my smart LG tv or my iPhone, the thumbnails are there. 

Other apps like MAX or Apple TV+ have no issues with thumbnails during fast forward or rewind.

There are only 2 of us in the house and we are not gamers and never have more than 4 devices online at any one time 


Any ideas as to what may be happening?

    Hi Klerner,

    Welcome to the Roku Community!

    We get that you are not seeing the thumbnails of your Fubo recordings when you fast-forward or rewind a recorded show. We would like to look closely into the issue.

    Let's see if this will work for you:

    1. Update the Fubo Channel - Highlight the app > Press the star (*) button on your Roku remote > 

      Check for updates

    2. Restart your Roku device
    3. If you have another Roku device, we suggest trying to play and fast-forward a recorded show on Fubo to see if the issue occurs.

    For further help, please visit our Roku support article: Issues playing shows and movies on your Roku device.

    We look forward to your update.

    Cheers,
    The Roku Community Team

      Thank you for your reply…. We have 2 LG “smart” tvs, and 1 LG “dumb” tv, all using Roku streaming stick 4K - models 3820x and 3820RW (we like the ROKU UI rather than the LG).  All 3 have the updated FUBO app and the problem exists on all 3 tvs. 

      I have restarted Roku, rebooted my modem, prior to making this post. 🤷‍♂️

        In addition, on some channels, the thumbnail is there, but completely black.
