Why is AMC Plus not working? Unable to play video

Jump to solution

When i attempt to stream anything on AMC Plus (purchased through Roku) it brings me back to the show page. If i hit 'resume' it comes back to the page as well. I've deleted and restarted and everything I've read on community threads. I prefer not to go back to Sling for AMC Plus but if this cant be resolved i have no other recourse. I just wanna watch Fear the Walking Dead.

You have to contact AMC about issues with their channel. Roku did not develop it, and has no ability to resolve an issue with it. 

You didn't really state what the issue is, other than a particular title wouldn't play. Does that mean it's not even listed as something available to watch, is there an error message when attempting to play the title, or something else? What is the model number (not the name) of your Roku player?

Hi @Wolffl9 @Viv180,

We appreciate you for reaching out to the Roku community!

If the issue is only with the channel alone, this is a good indication that there likely an issue within that specific channel that will need to be addressed with an update from the channel publisher. Channels on Roku are created and maintained by each channel publisher. In this case, you'll want to reach out to that channel publisher directly to share your feedback. 

Thanks for your patience regarding this issue.

Regards,
Mary

Content is not included in your subscription. Error code 403 source provider

Jump to solution

I have contacted AMC Plus they have been very helpful. The full error message I got was; 'We're sorry this content is not included in your subscription. error code 403- source- provider'.

This was the solution from AMC customerservice@amcplus.com:

'We're sorry to hear you're having some trouble with that. Other members reporting this issue have usually solved it by one of these steps: 
  • Delete the AMC Plus app 
  • Reboot your devices
  • Make sure all your devices have the latest versions.
  • Reinstall the app (recheck to see the app is updated)
  • Then sign in again

Next Steps: If you tried this and are still having trouble check to see if you are able to log on via amcplus.com?

If you CAN watch by using amcplus.com then the issue is with the app I would contact AMC  customerservice@amcplus.com.

I tried all of this and the App still does not work.  I paid for a year subscription through amcplus.com..  very disappointed.  I can log in, but cannot go to any channels or watch anything.  403 code every time.
