Why is this marked solved when it certainly did not solve the problem?
It will still automatically play the next episode regardless of the Accessibility setting.
Declaring this solved, when it clearly isn't, is a bit misleading.
As has been said in other threads, that suggestion does not work.
I agree it’s BS for sure! I don’t use the Roku channel for this reason. They won’t address the issue because it’s better for their viewing hours and ad revenue. However if their “solution” is in the accessibility settings then it is clearly an #accessibility #ADA issue they are ignoring and getting away with. If I had the energy I’d take it up with Roku but I just prefer to use another channel

Hi, thanks, Kadh, but this instruction you posted answers a DIFFERENT auto-play problem and that’s frustrating to have the same terminology used.,Your solution has to do with videos playing while we “navigate” the Roku channel looking for shows.
What WE are complaining about is this (as an example): I’m watching S2/E4 of something on the Roku Channel later in the evening and fall asleep. I wake up and the show is still playing. I eventually make my way back and determine 9 episodes have played!
Please ROKU TECH DEPT let us have a setting option where the device stops after an episode plays and doesn’t play the next episode until the user presses “play next episode.”
Thank you!
Yeah, I figured out what they are calling Auto-play in Accessibility is different than what I’m taking about (and I think you, too). They are talking about where videos will start playing while you’re just navigating the selections on the screen. So I agree they aren’t going to fix it when it provides them ad revenue.
