Re: MAX Pause function not working correctly
Same PAUSE problem (but not their only problem: MAX video always hangs at the beginning of an episode, sometimes forgets what episode we're on, and may forget language preferences). The Tracker ID below refers to the pause malfunction (need to press twice - which happens only on MAX).
Configuration settings:
Dev Model 4120X-Roku2
Serial 4A654D019933
Dev ID ??
GC ver: 12.1.17
SW ver: 13.1.4 build 1510-04
Tracker ID: 33-365-611

Hi Carly,
I, too, am experiencing this issue and while it’s not the biggest problem in the world, it is annoying. Thanks for your assistance!

Re: MAX Pause function not working correctly
I have been having this problem with max also. Pause and play only work if time bar is displayed. So I have to hit pause once to get time bar and again to actually pause. Annoying. Today I got out an old roku to set up in a spare room. The problem did not exist on the max channel. I then did a roku system update becuase well why not and now problem is back. Tells me it’s a roku related problem.

Re: MAX Pause function not working correctly
When you updated the Roku, the app itself, and any other old apps, were updated. Ideally, you should have checked the version (press star key when the tile is highlighted) both before and after any OS update.

Re: MAX Pause function not working correctly
You know what’s ironic Roku, your comment is listed on here twice haha, just like the play/pause max issue (which I’ve also been experiencing).
