I keep having problems with streaming Netflix on Roku. It's really getting frustrating. First it would freeze or be super laggy. So I restarted the Roku...no difference. Uninstalled Netflix and tried to reinstall but now it won't reinstall. WTF. I've been a loyal Roku user for over a decade but I'm losing patience. I'm ready to move on.
What model of Roku are you using and what version of the OS? If it is an old Roku Device or one with an older OS, that might explain the reason you are having issues with the app because an older device or older OS might not be able to handle the latest Netflix app updates.
If that is not the case, it is possible it is an app issue, Roku does not control how those apps are programmed unless they own the channels themselves, although I have not seen any Netflix issue with the Ultra I have.
I know you said you have done some of the troubleshooting steps, but I suggest Uninstalling the app, then restarting or even unplugging the Roku device for 30 to 60 seconds and then reinstalling the app again.
It is a Roku Streambar https://www.roku.com/products/audio/roku-streambar
I've had it for a couple of years and it is a POS, the speaker is garbage. It doesn't work with my terrestrial channels, which drives me crazy. I have to unplug it for the audio to work.
I've found that Netflix gets really laggy, and crashes. Its a pain.
