Just turned on my TV to see a video open on the home screen and play some trailer? I hope this was a fluke. I trashed all of my Amazon boxes years ago because of this garbage. If it keeps up, my Rokus will be next.
I also got this. It was a Moana 2 ad and it had a "close" button if I wanted to dismiss it.
I don't have a picture of it, but it's clearly a new feature that Roku has just rolled out.
If it happens again, I'll also be getting rid of all roku products.
No... no one is going to have a picture of it. We don't sit here watching TV with a camera ready to take a screen shot. Two of us have had the exact same experience and this experience is unacceptable. Keep it up and your device will be trashed and I won't be buying another one.
One more instance and I smash the **bleep** thing with a hammer. Completely unacceptable.
Same had wicked blasting about watching. Came here and I see I’m not alone. I Will absolutely get rid of Roku if the play that stuff.
I have 4 3800x streaming sticks +, and do not have these issues.
I can control, via system settings, most of the junk on the home screen (recommended for you, most menu options, ie sports- can be disabled)
After reading this post, it gives me good reasons not to upgrade!
