Hello everyone,
I have three devices, and one of them no longer wants to play videos from the Roku channel. I have reset the device, and removed it from my devices and added it back. Neither seems to have fixed the issue, so I figured I'd create an account and come here to see if anyone else has any ideas.
Thanks for your help

After removing a channel, best practice is to clear the Roku's memory by restarting it before reinstalling the channel. Did you do this?
Restart via Settings > System > System restart (for Roku TVs: Settings > System > Power > System restart)
Yes, I did this. I also factory reset the device and added/signed back into all of the channels after this didn't help. I think something else is going on and it's specific to this one device. My other two devices have no issue viewing anything on this channel.
Thanks for the reply.
Hi @SRV1,
Thanks for posting in Roku Community and for letting us know all that you've done.
We'd like to gather more information about the issue you're running into. Does the issue only occur on The Roku Channel or all channels on your Roku device? Does this happen on all movies/shows in The Roku Channel or just specific titles? Are you using a Roku TV or a Roku device?
With more information, we will be able to assist you further.
Regards,
Mary
Hello Mary,
It only happens on the Roku channel that I can see. I tested it again this morning on Airwolf, the featured section, and "New this month." Each gave me this same error. Live TV does seem to work just fine as far as I can tell. My device is a 3920RW Roku Premier. Software Version is 10.0.0 with build 4205-91. I've checked for updates, and it says it's current.
edit- No idea why picture uploaded upside down. It looks correct on my desktop.
Thanks for following up, @SRV1.
Can you please provide us the following information:
-Roku device model
-serial number
-device ID
-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)
-steps to reproduce the issue you are seeing
With more information, we will be able to assist you further.
Our engineering team would like to take a look to see if we can help here. Thank you!
