It's a Roku 3 Model 4200X. I hope the new one lasts as long as this one did.

Thanks for that info. The 4200 was released in Mar 2013, so it's now 12 years old. It was a fantastic player in its time, but I can't say I'm surprised it has finally given up.
For a new player, the question becomes if an Ethernet port is a requirement for you, of if WiFi is enough. There's only one Roku player with a network port, and that's the Ultra. Even on sale it's still $80. Roku has released two new players, and other than the Ultra everything is now in the Stick form factor. If you have no interest in 4K, the new Streaming Stick is only $20 (on sale). The new Streaming Stick Plus is their entry level 4K player for $30 (on sale), and the older Streaming Stick 4K is still available, which supports Dolby Vision (as does the Ultra).
