Channel Issues & Questions

[andyross]

I decided to play around a bit with the Pluto TV app. I have found what seems to be a nasty usability issue. If you are watching something, and have the Live TV guide visible, there is no way to go back to full-screen unless you select that channel again in the guide. If you want to just scan through the guide while watching something, you cannot go back without re-finding your channel. The little video in the upper-right seems to imply hitting back to return to full-screen, but that just tries to exit the app.

Anyone with more experience on using the app with a Roku?

I've just done the same channel line up searching, but I was able to go back to the channel displayed in thew upper right "little video" by pressing the round "semi circled arrow" on my remote, not the "back arrow".

It seems to work as advertised.

I'm using a Roku Ultra

The Roku remote for my Roku 4 does not have that key. Luckily, I use a JP1-based remote. The remote had been set up where it's replay and skip forward keys were programmed as Page up and down. I reprogrammed the replay key to the "Instant Replay" code, and that works.

Glad you got it working!

Great channel!!!

Ditto:  The app is completely broken on RokuTV. UI is not recognizing the remote at all.
