Channel Issues & Questions

[wilhaucks4]

I am trying to follow the St. Louis Cardinals on foxsportsgo on my Roku. i have two Roku tvs and the app isn't working on either one. i have uninstalled, reinstalled and still not working. The app loads, but when i choose an event, i get the a message that says "Something went wrong - Encountered an unrecoverable error playing this video. please try again later" the app is working on my phone. Any suggestions welcomed Angela W.

Thanks for the post.

After removing the channel, have you made sure to restart your Roku device before adding the channel back again?

Please keep us posted.

Thanks,
Danny

yes, i disconnected from the power source for more than a minute.  When i reconnected, the device "rebooted", but the app still will not load any event

I can't get any programming either. It looks like you need a cable provider service account. I only use Roku and UTUBE TV streaming services. Fox Sports Go / Bally wants more.

Hi @PHRED96,

Thanks for getting in contact.

Please be noted that FOX sports Go or Fox sports, requires a cable or satellite subscription and you must have a TV provider and use your TV provider credentials to authenticate FOX sports Go or Fox sports in order to stream and access the content.

Please let us know if there's anything else we can help you with.

Thanks,

Mary

I have a cable subscription and have already logged into that. All my other apps work using my cable subscription, including other fox apps

Hi @wilhaucks4,

Thanks for the note.

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.
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 them here: https://www.foxsports.com/supports/contact-us
