Hulu dim at start up - Home screen

When I launch Hulu and after I select my profile, the home page comes up dimmed. Once I select a show, the details page comes up brighter.

 

I have removed the channel and re-added it, with the same result.

Re: Hulu dim at start up - Home screen

After removing a channel, best practice is to clear the Roku's memory by restarting it before reinstalling the channel.   Without the restart you may not get a clean reinstall.

So the process is:

  • Remove the channel
  • Restart the Roku
  • Reinstall the channel

You'll find the System restart option under Settings > System > Power on some models, or if not there under Settings > System ... or just unplug from its power source for a few seconds then plug back in.

(Note: if you have a Roku TV with "Fast start" enabled, turning the tv off and back on just puts the TV into and out of a standby state and does NOT give you a complete restart - use the instructions above.)
