Hi Rey,
Thanks for the help. Yes, this is just happening on the Paramount Plus app. To reproduce: Go to any show and watch for awhile until a commercial comes up. It never successfully makes it out of the commercial zone at that point no matter how long you let it go. it just loops endlessly in commercials. It will dump back to the last few seconds of the program you were watching but freezes the video and then loops back to endless commercials. I've observed this behavior for the last 4 days. Had to abandon Paramount on this device for now. Not sure when it started. Last week Paramount Plus worked fine as it has been for many months back.
And, yes I did the restart after the Paramount Plus app deletion before i reinstalled. Thanks. I'm not looking forward to a factory reset because of all my apps to set up but that's about all i got left on my side. and, it seems like the last time I did a factory reset on a different issue, the problem persisted. Hoping for a fix from Roku.
Thanks for the prompt response!
Have you tried reaching out to the channel support team about this to see what they can suggest and how they can help you out regarding this?
If not, we recommend starting from there, and if the issue is only with the channel alone, this is a good indication that there is likely an issue within that specific channel that will need to be addressed with an update from the channel publisher. Roku only hosts the channel on the platform.
You can contact them here: ParamountPlus.
Keep us posted on what you find out, and we'll be there to further assist you.
Warm regards,
Rey
This is not a Roku problem. It is Paramount Plus. I have the same thing using the actual Paramount Plus app on my Android phone, and on my tablet.
