Roku Streambar Pro and latest updates

The latest few updates have totally fouled up 4k streaming. It pauses, stutters, and then crashes 75% of the time on any 4k content. What did you do? Was it deliberate to force consumers to buy the newest devices? Wasnt like this before.

      Been thru all that before and all you ever say is we will look into it. Well its now march 2025 and 4k streaming is still an issue when it wasnt before all these so called updates. More like downgrades to force new purchase at higher price point. Seriously considering trashing Roku and getting something else.
