Rumble being blocked by roku

I'm thinking that's what is happening too. Rumble worked for me this morning and an hour later it worked for a split second and returned to the Roku home screen. Very odd. I updated the app and Roku, even reinstalled Rumble and same issue. Rumble works fine when I open the app on my phone or go to the website. So it must be an issue with Roku.

      Rebooting the roku device made no difference

      Roku 12.5.0 build 4178-50

      Rumble app version9.9 build 37

      Removing the app from the roku device, rebooting, checking for updates, reboot, reinstalling rumble also made no difference.

      The rumble app is crashing and landing back at Roku home. This is happening consistently after 30 Seconds. The rumble home page is not loading, with the circle of doom rotating.

      Looks like a web issue?  This crash is happening from any of the rumble app pages

        AViewer,

        Thanks for the update,

        We appreciate the additional information regarding this. We'd recommend contacting the channel support team for further assistance. If the issue is isolated to a specific channel, this is an indicator that there might be a service interruption on the channel partner end. Roku only hosts the available channels on the platform.

        Let us know how things turn out

        Thanks,

        Rey

      Maybe we all need to dump Roku and use the Amazon Firestick since they won’t fix it.

      Many of us have tried rebooting, unplugging, resetting, deleting the app and then reloading it.  Nothing makes a difference on the Roku stick.  Yet it works just fine on iPad and iPhone.  All other apps seem to operating; it’s Rumble that does not work on the stick.  There are numerous channels I watch on Rumble but They are now all mixed up and older programming shows up.  The only way to access a channel on Rumble is to go to the search button and then I can see programs on that channel.  But if I want to another one one, I have to go through the same process all over again.  Not with the aggravation on Rumble.  I am going to try using Amazon Fire stick

        Having the same problem with Soundbar Roku/Rumble videos no longer match the followed channels. No problem on IPhone or IPad, just Roku. Device was OK last week.

        system update - no change.

        System power cycle - no change.

        Any ideas of what next to try?
