Home screen preview of 'Live TV' on Roku TV stopped working

Until Friday (15  November 2024), the 'Live TV' app on the Home Screen showed a thumbnail of the selected channel.  Since then it doesn't show a preview thumbnail.  I checked, and the signal strength is 4 bars... I rebooted, powered off, nothing fixed it.  No recent software update (last updated on 17 October, version 14.0).

TV is TCL Roku TV, model 55S455

Does anyone have any suggestions to restore this functionality?

Re: Home screen preview of 'Live TV' on Roku TV stopped working

There's two different "Live TV" icons possible on Roku TVs.  One is for their streaming "Live TV" channels  on "The Roku Channel" and one is for antenna channels.  They seem to be screwing with the one for antenna TV and it may have disappeared from your Home Screen.
