I have found that the simplest solution is to use a firestick, works all the time every time, some roku TVs just cant handle this app.

Unfortunately you cannot view Britbox on a Firestick when it was purchased and the payment is made thru Roku.  Also the TV is a Roku TV and all the rest of the apps work fine. I understand that the app itself is a Roku product.

Tried your suggestions - didn't work.  Contacted Britbox.  They said Roku has to update the Britbox app which takes time.  Two months have gone by and no change.  HELP???

Hi @keen1,

Thanks for posting in the Roku Community!

We would be more than happy to look further into this issue but will need more details. Can you please provide us with the following information:

  • Roku device model, serial number, device ID, and software OS/version (these can all be found in Settings > System > About)
  • does this issue occur on a specific channel? if so, what channel and what version/build is the channel (this can be found by selecting the channel on the Home screen and pressing the * button)
  • tracker ID when this issue occurs (when you see this issue occur, press the Home button 5 times, followed by the Back button 5 times, and provide us with this ID)
  • steps to reproduce the issue you are seeing

Once we have this information, we will be able to investigate further.


Best regards,
Mary

Not true!!!! I paid for britbox thru roku, created u/n and p/w, loaded the britbox app on my firestick (mine is not associated with an acct, and loaded with 3rd party app capability) signed in and works every time. The key is adding as an app on the stick and not part of your amazon acct. if you are using amazon thru roku or adding to amazon acct you dont get sign in ability.
