Re: DISNEY PLUS NOT WORKING on any of my roku devices. SIMPLY WILL NOT PLAY ONCE IN.

Hi @Abel1,

Welcome to the Roku Community!

We appreciate you letting us know about this issue with Disney plus having an error message. 

Please be advised that when removing a channel, it's important that you make sure to restart your Roku device before adding the channel back again to ensure a clean channel install. If you are still unable to resolve the issue.

If you are still unable to resolve the issue, you'll want to contact Disney plus support directly to inquire further. Many channels on Roku are developed and maintained by the channel provider themselves.

Re: DISNEY PLUS NOT WORKING on any of my roku devices. SIMPLY WILL NOT PLAY ONCE IN.

Yes, I have tried, carefully, each step, resting app, resetting Roku TV, reset modem, more than a couple times, nothing works. Disney and Prime load, I am able to browse all content, only when hitting "play" video looks like loading (the turning circle animation appears) but never does load and just shows a short and meaningless text saying something went wrong, no codes or anything. Both prime and Disney started showing this behavior couple weeks back in my Phillips Roku TV, Netflix, HBO, VIX, YouTube work just fine. I have a Roku stick in my other tv, same house, same modem, same account in the apps, all works just fine.

Is this a joke??? I mean, if you are a Roku employee, shouldn't you take these findings to an appropriate product manager, raise a bug and feed it to you development team to fix it?????? Come one!!! We customers don't need "tips" , we need customer support and solution.
