NBC channel will not load

Mine is not loading either. It's doing the same thing you say. Neither is my Telemundo, I guess they're the same company or something. Hasn't worked in days☹️

Re: NBC channel will not load

Hi @julissareyes,

Thanks for reaching out regarding the issue you are experiencing.

We recommend starting here to troubleshoot channel issues: Follow these steps in order:
1.Navigate to the channel tile on the Roku home screen, press the * key on your remote, and choose 'Remove channel'.
2.Next, restart your device from Settings>System>System restart. (For Roku TV Settings>System>Power>System restart)
3.Once your player/TV starts up again, go to 'Streaming Channels' on the Home screen, and add the channel back once more.

You may also refer to this link: How do I resolve channel playback issues? - Roku
If that still doesn't clear up the issue you're experiencing, we recommend contacting the channel provider directly to follow up for more help. They’ll be able to best assist with any issues that are occurring within their channel.

You can reach NBC support here:

Let us know how it goes!

Many thanks,
Mary

Re: NBC channel will not load

I have tried all of the above and other suggested tips to no avail. NBC has no answer or remedy either.  Very frustrating as this is my most used app of all.

Hi @TanyT,

Thanks for reaching out to the Roku community!

We are aware of an issue impacting playback on NBC and it's currently under investigation.  Once they provide me with an update I'll be sure to let the Community know.

We appreciate your patience for the time being!
Regards,
Mary

Re: NBC channel will not load

Add me to the list.

When I select NBC, I get the 3 dots flashing, then short, static like sounds that last for a milisecond... then continue to repeat approximately, every 10 seconds.

I carefully went through all the steps listed by a roku employee earlier in this thread, and separately tried some of the community suggestions. Some people had success, I am one of the ones that did not. If I switch my source from the roku to xfinity, NBC comes in fine... but not when the source is the roku.

Re: NBC channel will not load

It is not possible to include Telemundo or NBC on Roku. When I type the code Roku gives to activate Telemundo, Roku doesn't appear as a provider. We are many Hispanic Roku customers who want to have the possibility to watch Telemundo or even Univision. Any suggestions?
