Since the bands don't go all the way across but get offset half away across, I suspected the problem was with the TV rather than the Roku. But it repeating on other sets seems to knock that out.
Have you tried a different HDMI cable?

KashThat’s really weird. If I search for failing backlight, I find lots of pictures that look like yours. But I’ve never seen a Roku failure that looked like that. I would expect a Roku failure to be much more “digital” – hard pixelated edges and weird colors. On the other hand, that looks SOOO much like a backlight because backlight LED strips are behind several layers of diffusers so when a strip or two go out, they make those soft edged dark areas. Oh and it could be coincidental, but so many of the similar images I find are of Vizios. eg:

yes but why doesn't it do this on playstation? i disconnect the roku and connect tv to wifi and it works fine. its only when connected to the roku ultra that these lines appear. as i said previously i liked this product so much i gave 1 of them as a gift and bought 2 more for my son and my parents. I love the product but Im at the point of giving up on roku. 😞
Suggestion:
Don't know if this will help, but try playing around with different settings under Settings > Display type.
