Channel Issues & Questions

[shake1994]

every now and then certain channels that i have already unlocked, are all locked again, and have me go and put in an activation code. it does get frustrating and was just wondering if there was something i could do?

Those channels that you subscribe to via a subscription to another service (cable, satellite, etc) may periodically require you to login with that service's credentials to confirm your subscription is still in force.

I too had this question. Thank you for the information. It would be helpful if Roku could develop a database of approved channels so we didn't have to do this, but other than this it works great. Thanks.

This is likely beyond Roku's control and it may change at any time given the policy of the third party service.
