What happened to the Classic Arts Showcase channel on Roku? Stating that it is "not broadcasting at this time" is inadequate. How about keeping your viewers updated with relevant information? All posts are nearly a year old!

Thanks for the inquiry.

For more information about that channel's features and functionality, you'll want to contact the channel provider support directly to inquire further. Many channels on Roku are developed and maintained by the channel provider themselves. 

Thanks,
Danny

Thanks. If I learn anything helpful from Classic Arts Showcase I'll try to return and post it here.

I learned nothing from Classic Arts Showcase, but I am pleased to report their Roku TV App is up and running again. As usual, I checked to make sure my Roku software was up to date and I rebooted the Roku device. When I started the Classic Arts Showcase TV app, bingo! Perhaps my squeaking wheel got the grease?

Is classic arts the same as All Arts? How do I get information about non-functioning All Arts channel? 

When I"m in ROKU it shows the ALL ARts logo, but when I select it, it doesn't open All Arts.

All help appreciated.

No, CAS and AA are two different ROKU channels. When you say you’re in ROKU, I assume ROKU is running and that you have downloaded the All Arts channel. Then, when you click in the AA icon, nothing happens? Mine works fine. I would start by making sure my Roku software is up to it ans then restart the Roku. If All Arts still does not open and start properly when you click on it, I would contact the developer. This info can be found in the Channel Store. Good luck!

I think the programming is mostly performing arts.

I don't think the Classic Arts Showcase Roku channel is an authorized product from Classic Arts Showcase. There is no mention of Roku on the CAS website in the 'How to get CAS' section or anywhere else. The developer of the Roku channel is listed as Hologram Television.

It's strange that the Classic Arts Showcase site doesn't mention the Roku app, but Hollogram Television promotes CAS on its Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/HollogramTelevision.

I wasn't able to watch CAS for about a week, until I tried a hard reset on my Roku Ultra: unplugged it for 30 seconds, plugged it back in, and voila! CAS was there when I clicked on the icon.
