Re: Amazon Prime Video - not showing the thumbnail pictures

Jump to solution

This has been happening to me for years sporadically so I start with uninstalling Prime and reinstalling but last night I unplugged my TV from the outlet for 30 seconds and that worked. I was on a chat with Prime at the time and the tech didn't have any new things for me to try that I haven't already done. So I hope this helps.

 A selection of SETTINGS - SYSTEM - POWER - SYSTEM RESTART - RESTART from the Roku OS should accomplish the same thing without having to unplug TV and wait 5 minutes.

There is usually more than one way to fix an issue.  I am glad you have at least one or two now that work!

Same issue with TLC Roku tv and only Prime Video app. Their service desk said it's a Roku problem. All fix suggestions failed.

What has always worked for me, is to disconnect the Roku-TV from the A/C power - leave it off for about 60 seconds, then plug it back in.

Prime often displays a message that you can simply RESTART the Roku-TV and that should solve it.
