I am thrilled to report Fox News has not jumped back to the Home Screen near the top of the hour, every hour, since I have had it on today.  Thanks for your persistence in getting this resolved.

Hi DannyR, this is Tony2213,

       Just an FYI I have not seen any programs go back to the home screen for almost 2 months now, was anything done to rectify this. I did change power supplies on both my tv's as we were told to do and I'm not sure if that cured the problem. So far so good

Most likely channel updates over the past few weeks. No known Roku updates recently.

Hi Danny-

Thanks to you and all others involved in taking ownership to get this problem resolved.  Since your posting I've not encountered any issues regarding Fox News channel and Hulu dropping out and reverting to the Roku home screen.  I don't think Hulu was to interested in fixing their problem until you guys got them involved to rev a new version of code.

Best Regards,

DF
