Why does "roku support" continue to repeat their instructions. We have ALL tried these various times and it still will not work. Roku Channel itself HAS to have an issue. Can Roku admit this so we don't keep wasting our time looking??? I removed my subscriptions so I won't get charged when I can't watch them, but thankfully Roku Channel itself is free. Anyone get any help?
I have 5 Roku devices in my home for quite a while, no issues. Now none are able to stream video on “The Roku Channel”. All other channels work fine. I tried the whole delete and reboot fix, but it didn’t work. What’s up?
For the last three days. I have had the same issue. received a response on a ticket to day. They may have answer. apps still won't play, even the Roku Channel.
I'm using The Roku Channel on my Ultra right now with no issues. I first tried one of the Live TV channels, and then selected a movie. Again, no issues.
When reporting problems with your Roku device, it's critical to include the type (TV or player) and the specific model number. Please don't just say "Express" or Premiere". Those names are reused on numerous devices with completely different internal hardware. The Roku support staff need to know that model number. When the staff requests your serial number, that's because they can pull a system log remotely and perhaps identify a problem with the hardware or software.
Did this ever get resolved? I have the exact same problem on multiple ROKU devices.
So are you attempting to suggest that the problem is nonexistent?
Somehow this is more like gas-lighting rather than help!

Not at all. I'm providing another data point that shows that it's not affecting all devices. Roku needs that information as well.
