DanUK I've had this happen, an old Toshiba television in a guest bedroom with a Roku Ultra. None of the Toshiba codes worked so I tried different brand of manufacturer IR codes and found one that worked. I don't recall which manufacturer code ultimately worked, it may have been a Sanyo code.
If your Roku remote previously worked to control your Samsung and stopped after a Roku OS update perhaps it's possible the update mixed up the remote codes.
There is hope, keep trying different manufacturer codes if none of the Samsung codes are working for your television.
From the posts on this site it is clear that nothing got mixed up, the upgrade removed functionality, Roku has admitted it.
Such is the contempt they have for their customers, no wonder their share price has dropped from $473 to $49.
It certainly wouldn't hurt to try using different manufacturers IR codes, have you tried?
What go spending money on things I have no idea if work NO,
There are posts on this forum that suggest the IR functionality has been removed.
I also looked on eBay where there are many clones that all say DOES NOT WORK WITH ROKU DEVICES ONLY ROKU TV.
That is why I suggested they publish their codes
Not talking about spending money, I believe you indicated you have a Roku remote that was working to control your Samsung television and it stopped. If that's true then it's worth a shot to try different manufacturers IR codes. You may just find a code that will work to control volume and power for your Samsung television. I found one that worked with our Toshiba television after none of Roku's Toshiba codes worked.
