Stop Netflix auto-play on details page

I've read this thread and tried the solutions listed (restarting Netflix app, deleting and reinstalling Netflix app etc.) ....

But it STILL autoplays when looking at the details page of a title even though I have auto previews TURNED OFF on my profile!

So annoying!

I'm on a Roku Streambar Pro

    See my response to your question on a different thread.

      I did.   I changed the setting on the website but it doesn't change on Roku.

      I did the steps suggested earlier (deleting Netflix and reinstalling, restting it etc.) and it still auto previcews even though my profile on the web says that is OFF>

        I responded on the other thread, but I'll repeat it here in case others are looking for a solution. 

        Netflix has complete control over the way their apps work on different devices. They are the only one that can make this work the way you desire.
