Re: Paramount+ won't stream and keeps buffering
I'm here yet again making the same complaint about a different app (Paramount+, not Sling TV this time) that is not working correctly on Roku, and Roku only.
The Paramount+ app is not working on my Roku or my roommate's Roku. We both have the same device model.
My subscription with Paramount+ through Amazon Prime is still active and I CAN watch shows through Prime on my Roku.
I can also watch Paramount+ through their Paramount+ app on my XBox Series X (just like before when I had similar problems with my Sling app on Roku only, almost a year ago).
Is this because Roku is trying to interject something into my Paramount+ streaming service or something? Are you trying to interject some commercials or something?
Yes, I've done the requisite testing that a software engineer would do ... since I am a software engineer. This is a problem with Roku not letting Paramount+'s app run correctly. Or, it could also be that Paramount+ made a change to their app that is failing on some of, but probably not all of, Roku's device
Fix it. Again.
EDIT 2025-07-20: I updated the title of this discussion to refer to the Paramount+ app directly. And to consolidate my testing on:
1) My XBox Series X: Paramount+ app works.
2) My iPhone: Paramount+ app works.
3) My Firefox browser: Paramount+ web site works.
4) Paramount+ still does NOT work on:
- My Roku Ultra
- My house-mate's Roku Ultra (same model)
EDIT 2025-07-26: I see this is now posted as a reply to someone else's post. This **bleep** ain't working and I don't appreciate that I've received absolutely no correspondence on this issue and have received absolutely no updates. IT IS MOST CERTAINLY NOT RESOLVED.
