Stop changing the wallpaper to game of thrones

Roku - THS IS MY DEVICE THAT I PAID FOR. STOP SHOVING ANYTHING ONTO MY HOME SCREEN.

I'm sick of this, Roku is simply pushing me to the  Apple TV box. They do not offer a USB thumb drive for media but Roku's has become very unreliable so that is no longer an issue.

Apple at least respects their customers, Roku is making the One device look good.

    jimsz, turn off Seasonal and Sponsored wallpapers under Settings->Wallpapers & screensavers.

    JeanInTN, there's two settings - one is for Seasonal wallpapers and one is for Sponsored wallpapers.  Make sure you have them both disabled.  I can't say where the settings are since Roku keeps moving things around, but look under Themes or "Wallpapers & screensavers".

      I have had my Roku TV for approximately a year, and my wallpaper occasionally changes with the seasons even though I changed the setting the first time it happened.  I'm old and don't like change. LOL. So PLEASE stop changing the wallpaper against the preferences in our settings!
