Re: Discovery plus app keeps pausing

Jump to solution

I agree with you I have no problems unless I pause it or rewind or fast forward. After I pause for a few minutes it does the pause thing for about 5 minutes and then it proceeds without any other pauses. When I try to rewind and play it over again it pauses in the same section. I haven't tried to back out and rewind. But what I have done is on my Roku I have the ability to used closed caption on replay. So when I do rewind and it comes back on even if it skips I can read what they're saying using the closed caption. Works like a charm. It might skip some video but it doesn't skip the narration.  Thank you for the info.

I haven’t tried the closed caption trick! Thanks for the suggestion - I’ll have to try that! 5 minutes paused tho?! That’s crazy! I’d go insane!! Mine will pause for about 5 seconds & then moves on. I seriously hope they fix these issues soon!

Didn't realize we had 2 threads of this topic. Finished my 2nd show now with no issues using 1.4 Build 1. Looks like it has been fixed!

I still have the pause problem when I purposely pause it to walk away from the TV for a bit. When I come back and turn it back on It still pauses.  it seems the pauses are a little longer.

Hi everyone,

Thanks for the posts.

As previously stated, for more information about that channel's features and functionality, you'll want to contact Discovery+ support directly to inquire further. Many channels on Roku are developed and maintained by the channel provider themselves. 

You can reach Discovery+ support here: https://help.discoveryplus.com/hc/en-us
 

Thanks,
Danny
